Being conventionally attractive is a HUGE advantage. Pretty people don’t even need to have a good personality to make it far in life.
There’s a phenomena I learned about in social psych. I can’t remember exactly what it’s called. Basically, people are more likely to believe pretty people are good people, so they’re able to get away with more.
There’s a study that proves babies make more eye contact with attractive faces
There’s evidence that suggests teachers pay more attention to and are more lenient towards attractive students in school, allowing them to outperform their peers.
Attractive people are actually seen as smarter and more confident too, so people are more willing to follow their lead.
This is what I can remember from my psych classes but there’s way more…
…dare I say veterans being the public image of PTSD in america is deliberate propaganda to make us sympathize with soldiers who kill people overseas ? way more women have PTSD than men, and a lot have it from sexual and domestic violence, not combat.
do y’all remember before direct messages tumblr had a dumbass ask limit of 10 per hour and communication was impossible until they introduced dumbass fan mail and we were basically sending telegraphs back in forth trying to communicate those were…dark times
Do y’all remember when they finally gave us direct messages and instead of doing it normally, they gave it to a few people at a time and we had to infect each other with it like a virus
