    No, I’m saying they’re not a great indicator of how people tend to be perceived, and people tend to be complaining about the trends, rather than the outliers. Also that, if you know short and ugly people who are funnier and have better personalities than their taller and handsomer counterparts, and who have had romantic success, that would kind of prove the idea that uglier, shorter people need to work harder correct.

    I could probably also explain this with the friendship paradox, which I think I cited recently for a similar thing someone was citing as example.
