I'm in my early 20's right now and I have to deal with men who come across as being EXTREMELY shallow. I am tired of it. Since when do I only get respect if my hair is straightened, my clothes are tight fitted and my face is well-rested. The other day, I was trying to dig my car out of the parking lot since it happened to be covered with snow. Another young woman, who was very attractive, was doing the same thing-digging her car out. A man who happens to work with maintence at the apartment walked right up to her and asked her if she was okay and if she needed assistance. Here I am, eyes watery from the brisk cold, hair frizzy, wearing a puffy coat digging my car out with desperation before it got towed.
This isn't the only scenario.
When I do have tight fitted clothing, maintained hair and so forth, I get many more guys saying hello to me, holding the door for me and smiling at me.
Some won't even engage in a conversation based on how I look that day. It must be my generation. What a pity.

Cheese sounds delicious. I'm not whining. Isn't this a forum? Where we state or opinions? Men are shallow. It's not about being physically attractive, it's about knowing how to respect women, even those who don't physically appeal to you. .
And women don't do that either? Put two guys in a room with a lot of seats, far apart from each other. One is what most people would consider "hot" and the other is "average at best." Then send in an attractive woman. Who is she going to sit closer to? My money's on the hot guy.
Shallow? Maybe, but a lot of people (myself included) are guilty of it. That said, I have pretty simple standards for what I find attractive, it's not like I only seek out blonde bombshells or the like. And I'm always respectful, courteous and helpful to people regardless of how attractive I find them.

Yes, you are whining. As far as shallowness, that is spread around pretty well, in both men AND women. But it's neither fair nor correct to paint everyone with the same brush.
