Being attractive helps in every facet of life, amirite?

I think it is well known that looks give you a huge upper hand. Congrats on becoming attractive! Haha

I feel like this is in fact a popular opinion, but people just don't like to say it.

This is not an unpopular opinion

I think a lot of people do end up paying for it later in life. I am in my 30s and most of the attractive woman I graduated with spend a good chunk of time and money to maintain their attractiveness. I think it would be really hard to be given an "advantage" that decreases as you grow older instead of increases. It would suck to skate by on being good looking but wake up and look in the mirror every morning to see that it is slowly going away.

That's why you leverage your looks into something that maintains it's value, or even becomes more valuable, such as beanie babies.

It does, and what made me realise it is having depressive bouts throughout my life but keeping it to myself. I'm a pretty attractive guy, and if I put effort in, I'd say I'm like an 8-8.5. When I don't because I'm depressed, I think I can be as low as a 6. People treat me differently when I look better than when I look worse, and this includes even my parents. I don't think they notice they do it but the agree with me more, take my side more, want to visit me more when I'm in an "up" period and looking good. If it even effects family, and parents at that, then of course it effects every interaction you have.

I don't think this is an unpopular opinion, this is just common knowledge. In high school I was conventionally attractive, I was extremely slim and athletic. Once I went to college, however, I got extremely depressed and gained 140 lbs. I sustained that weight until I was 24 years of age. I was super depressed, and I hated the way I looked. People treated me very differently, which added to the depression. Anyway, when I was about to turn 25 I got my hands on Ozempic, and it helped with my depression and I started exercising again. Now, I am very slim and am conventionally attractive. I grew into my face more, so I am arguably more attractive than I was in high school and I got a ton of attention. Now, I get a lot more opportunities. I am in graduate school, and professors remember my name and are giving me more research opportunities. I get free things all of the time, and every time I go to bars I do not pay for my drinks. It sucks that it took me losing weight, getting some cosmetic work done, and taking Ozempic for people to notice my worth.

This isn't an unpopular opinion, it's a literal measurable fact

And had been measured by scientists before, I believe.

It's literally the definition of the word. Attractive-things move towards you

Yes. Same holds true for wearing make up and dressing seductively. Which people like to deny.

by Kylamarvin 6 days ago

Seductively is a stretch, come on. But makeup absolutely is real.

by Anonymous 6 days ago

Yeah, seductively can backfire bigtime.

I feel like most people intuitively know this but don't tend to say it out loud or fully accept it because it's a very bitter pill. People hate facing the fact that their opportunities will be limited in life for reasons largely out of their control.

How you present yourself to the world is how the world tends to respond to you. And this applies just as much to the way you carry yourself. Present yourself to the world with good vibes, you get good vibes back.

Of course it helps. But, and you may find this unpopular, but when most people are consistent about exercise, healthy-ish diet, they start to become more confident. And confidence is ultimately the main "attractive" quality that helps in every facet of life.

by Fickle_House 6 days ago

Yes. This is obvious to anyone that is even a little observant, but people like to pretend otherwise for some reason

by Jumpy-Bedroom-7129 6 days ago

Is this an unpopular opinion? Pretty sure pretty privilege is widely accepted as a real thing

by Anonymous 6 days ago

Yes. But there's a trade off. You'll also get less respect from men in the business world, even though you're more likely to get hired and promoted more quickly. It's not overt, but the signs will be everywhere.

by Anonymous 6 days ago

People will say it's obvious, or common opinion or whatever. I think the impact of looks get severely understated regardless. Lots of attempts to downplay it, professionally or interpersonally, there will always be some excuse as to how you can succeed even if you are ugly by just working harder. Everyone will acknowledge looks are a major advantage, but also hold the dissonant view it's something that doesn't matter or can be overcome, or even that attractive people will someone pay for it later. It's inconvenient to accept the world is unfair and some people are doomed from birth.

Always look the best you possibly can, it matters. You don't necessarily need to be attractive to be successful. Being fat, dumpy and dirty looking with rainbow hair and heavy tattoos are all things that can keep one from being successful in many ways.

Not true just look at the Paul brothers i'd say they are successful partially because of their looks. Even that one Douch Jack Doherty thats probably why some people still hang out with him…
