So my friends and I were chatting today. Apparently the word was that if you are an attractive guy (talking about guys specifically), you should be able to have an active social life and dating life in the most unfavorable circumstances. In our circumstances, we go to a local 4 year college, most kids stick with their high school friends and rarely venture out, you have to join a frat to have anything close to a social life, and so forth.
Not a lot of people here enjoy an active social life, not at least at school that is. Thing is, my friends put up an argument that good looking guys can
1. Get an active social life going no matter where they are whether it be small town Alabama or NYC
2. Should not have a reason to worry about their success in the dating world and will usually not be found on places like these and other dating forums unless they are the ones giving advice
3. Will always have people keeping them company no matter where they are
My friends used two examples of guys we know in real life. Both guys have agreed to let us post their pics but we will only do so by request. Guy 1 manages to make it into beautifulpeople.com, has a very active social life, manages to get a lot of smiles and respect from girls, and usually girls are warm to him. Guy 2 is average looking, also applied to beautifulpeople.com but was quickly rejected, girls are also nice to him but generally there are girls who are mean to him too, his social life is not as active. Now guy 2 did go to a more urban and small high school while guy 1 went to a big high school.

Share your thoughts.
Dude, pretty and beautiful people have it easier in all aspects of life... It really is that simple.
Self confidence plays a huge role. Some good looking people don't see themselves as such and their insecurities stand in the way of them getting somewhere.
And some not as good looking people, but those with great confidence, get better results.
But if you have good looks AND confidence, then you'll be a winner for sure
People are always nicer to good looking people (with a few exceptions)
a lot of you picked option 3, hope you did not ignore me leaving out bigger
so you admit environment matters, correct?
They are probably thinking that in some incredibly small towns people dont pay attention to that kind of stuff. They do. Its just that because the town is so small, there is less to obtain from being pretty/handsome.
Everybody is judgemental. Much like a beautiful car gets treated the best, same applies to humans. We take care of beautiful people, thats the way it SHOULD be. Our definition of beautiful is what keeps our species alive. Before humans became the dominating species, we had to select our mates based on who would be most fit to survive. The same applies today by choosing beautiful people.
Now a days, this has changed and looks have nothing to do with survival qualities. But our brains are still wired that way.

What the F is environment. Sometimes personality will work against good looking people, among a small group, but in modern society, this is seldom a problem. Selfish, narcissistic women in particular, do very well for themselves.
so when you say good looking guy, would you say that high cheekbones and prominent jaw line are are a must?
i am telling u that i am sick and tired of being a pedestal object of beauty. i just want to be like ordinary people.
