It doesn't hurt our scientific literacy just some people fill their brain with other more important knowledge that is more useful. I also think shop class should be added to more schools but the opposite is happening and it's being taken away.
The mathematics behind it will teach you why it is right. That is the power of math. Opinion has nothing to do with it.

And not understanding statistics absolutely does hinder our scientific literacy. It is impossible to understand, and critically read research, without a foundation in it.

Yes sorry. How do you cope with being ugly? Simple make a lot of money and the women come. Look at our new elected president Trump. Does anyone think he is attractive in the looks department? lol

Of course, you are entitled to your opinions but I dont think you can ignore consistent scientific finding just because you dont agree with it.

Your argument is rather consistent with and analogous to those of British upper classes down the centuries: 'you are far better off poor, poverty stricken and disadvantaged, you wouldnt want the onerous life of the poor old wealthy and privileged!"

Having lived the life of the physically unattractive- unlike you- I can honestly say I would far rather have tackled life from the vantage point of the 'too good looking' than from that of the 'far too unattractive'. Actually, just average would have been just dandy. And indeed, there is far more to life than looks, but it sure does help, if one wants a "normal" (Ok, whatever that is) loving family life and reproductive facilities. Like my parents and grandparents all managed, anyway. I didnt.

Change your mindset and spirit energy. Granted I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world (nor do I want to be), I damn sure ain't ugly.

Good point and indeed look at many professional footballers too. As has been pointed out, money has a power to make a partnership- but- sex aside- is it true love, person to person?

It's not love I seriously doubt Melania is in love with him other then his large bank account.

And like scarface says...

You might as well say that is ugly people aren't good enough for true love with someone we are attracted to (not a ten). If I want to live a fantasy I'm better off with porn at least I don't have to worry about losing my money.

Go to Amsterdam...40 - 50 euros can fix your problem.

...or find a fat / ugly girl to love.

Lots of books on it on Amazon. Get them from your library.

Now, ugliness is all relative. There are some pretty gals with ugly private parts and ugly gals with pretty private parts. You should be on a dating site contacting any and all gals to date. Go down the list from A to Z and keep going from A to Z. Never give up unless she blocks you.

What is your other option...wanna go homo? So NEVER give up. There is a gal out there for ya if you can pick your balls up off the floor and go after her.

Once you get your gal, good chance you can keep her if you worship her and treat her like a princess...just devour her like a fat boy eating pizza.

Good luck!
