Everyone acts like ugliness isn't a big deal. People act as if ugliness doesn't play a major part or hindrance in less attractive people's lives. People get treated on how they look. Attractive people get more privileges and get away with alot more things in general then their less attractive counterparts.
Superficial beauty is ingrained in our society to be the most important quality in people.
Why do people deny this? Is the truth to harsh to bare?
Less attractive men have less active sex lives, fewer friends and on average make less money.
This statement is objective.
Whats my point?
The truth is most people care about what someone looks like then what they have to say. As long as your not a total nut job, or mentally handicapped the better you look the better your life will be as long as you have common sense and some wit about you.
If your one of those 30 year old virgins maybe the problem isn't your game, maybe the problem is in the mirror.
In fact alot of people HATE ugly people just for the mere fact your ugly. They do not want to be associated with them, talk to them, touch them, or even acknowledge them. Women especially hate ugly men especially the really attractive women.
What society also doesn't tell you is that someone who is deemed ugly is permanently ugly which is also a lie. Unless you are physically deformed EVERYONE has the potential to look good. EVERYONE HAS UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS AND AN INNER BEAUTY THAT CAN BE BROUGHT TO LIFE WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE. Imagine Hallie berry with acne all over her face, discolored teeth, discolored skin, and overweight with stretch marks. She has to maintain her image. Cosmetics has come a LOOONg way. I'm not talking nose jobs or lipal suction. I'm talking about braces or teeth whitening. Hitting the gym and using the proper facial cleaner products.
The point is....society is focused on how you present yourself and what you look like. Now bring on the flames and denial.
I can't speak for all of society, and yes I know there are plenty of superficial folks in it who put too much importance on physical looks, but I personally live by that expression above.
I find folks attractive based on who they are, not what they look like. I am not the only one.
We do place a high premium on appearance, but to say people actively hate unattractive people may be a bit of a stretch. I'm sure someone out there does, but those are outliers. If this is an area of concern to you my best advice is accept that you can't control someone else's behavior. All you can do is hold yourself to a high enough standard and avoid being guilty of what you've described.
I don't know anyone who hates ugly people because they are ugly. Maybe high school kids but beyond that - I don't think so. Is life easier if you are more attractive? Yes. Is life doomed if you are not attractive? Only if you let it be.

Assuming were talking about the opposite gender here.
I'll say this much. I don't like ugly people that bring it on themselves, I have no sympathy for most fat people and people with a bunch of ugly tattoos, they knew what they were doing 95% of the time. I also agree that people with those traits have ****ty lives.
At the same time I am not going to make professional judgments about someone who is just naturally less attractive but still tries to look as nice as they can and is respectable. I can't speak for other people but I'm not going to discriminate in a professional environment because Jenny has a crooked nose or something.
Finally I only go for attractive women. End of story. I want what I want and if she doesn't meet that standard its not happening. That's not all I care about either just so you know.
EDIT: Not to say I hate people that made themselves ugly but I also really do not feel bad for them one bit.
I'm not going to deny that attractive people benefit in a lot of ways compared to their average-looking or below average-looking counterparts. It's the truth. But I wouldn't go as far as to say attractive people, as a whole, hate or dislike "ugly people" simply on the basis of their being less than attractive.

I think you're missing the mark here.
Few people object when somone considers beauty when choosing a romantic partner. It is usually taken for granted that beauty factors into that.
What people object to is beauty being considered in contexts where it should be irrelevant, like the workplace. I'll give you a famous example.
Back in 1995, during the O.J. Simpson trial, the press payed an inordinate amount of attention to what lead attorney Marcia Clark wore, how she did her hair, whether she looked tired or refreshed, etc. It was absurd. Clark was the lead prosecutor in a murder trial, not a runway model. Why all this attention to what she looked like? Of course, no one in the press said anything about Lee Bailey's weight, Robert Kardashian's hairline or Johnny Cochran's neckties. Clearly, the media was obsessed with Marcia Clark's appearance because she was female.
You can go ahead and throw up your hands and say, "That's just how it is," but people are not going to accept that. A lot of what people think is "just the way it is" is, in fact, socially conditioned behavior. And what is learned can be unlearned, provided it gets challenged.

Try some humor dude. You always seem to come on here dragging a podium to stand on ranting and raving about something man. I hear humor works wonders with the ladies. What good is being good looking if you don't know how to mellow out once in a while?
