They say good looking people are often perceived as more intelligent, honest and successful.

1. Have you ever been discriminated because of your looks?

2. Was someone who is more attractive than you favoured over you, even when you know deep down that you are better?

3. Do you think lookism (discrimination based on looks) exists?

Will love to see your comments. I need to carry out a survey.

If you are Accused of Robbery,
and you are UGLY, You are Done for.....Nobody will believe your Story.


but if you are handsome, you will be Believed by onlookers

Yes now. Pretty privilege is something that always exists. Even down to the way we look at animals. A lot of awareness and conservative practices are made for pandas because they are cute. But you don't see awareness for some vultures even though they are near extinct and more vital in our ecosystem because they are not.

Pretty privilege has always, will always be a thing. Slave girls could marry princes and kings by just being pretty. Media and hospitality jobs recruite you based on how you look.

Very twisted, sick and misleading mentality you got there. A woman should be defined by how a myopic society views her? She should do something about her looks? Something like what exactly?

People don't create themselves, or determine the genetic combination that form their appearance. If this is the case, then it simply means that looks should not matter.

It's unfortunate that we live in a society where people who are supposedly not good looking are looked down on, or completely written off.

Sometimes, one wonders why most people who're in the news for the wrong reasons are not exactly good looking.
He's not saying that's how it's meant to me but how society actually works

no i haven't. people always like and favor me because of my small voice and as for looks i know i am beautiful.
In my ND days, i get favor easily from older ladies mostly, at the same time my landlady and her husband do perceive me to be a mean person who always stay quiet. I dont know if i am handsome lol, but i think i'm quite handsome base on experience and ladies comment.

Did I ask for your hand in marriage?
I only told you that after 43 years of bachelorhood, I have decided to settle down with a girl. So I am searching for that girl.

I expected you to shout, praise master Jesus.
Now what makes you think I wanted you? undecided

No, I've never been discriminated before, but each time I go to the salon I get questions like "are you a coloured? Do you have a mixed or a white family background? How sure are you that you don't have a white ancestry?"

All these questions can be really tiring sometimes because I always have to explain myself.

I've got a 4A hair texture and sometimes people question it because I'm also fair in complexion.

I've been told that I look like an Ethiopian, one girl back in high school once told me of how I looked like those illegal Pakistani migrants here in SA.
From your picture I can tell you have North/East African ancestry.
Only you carrying 3 women's beauty 😌

I took the time to firstly, draw close to God, clean up my life, and improve my finances.
Next step now is marriage.

I still had this issue today. The agents I met in search of an apartment today still profiled me as a yahoo boy and I could see it from their faces. I'm sick and tired of it.

I have a face that looks rich and I also do not dress down. I like to dress nice. I don't even dress overbroad, just neat and normal wears but once I put em on, it always seems elegant. Next thing I know.. everyone either assumes I'm pretty wealthy or that I'm a fraudster.

It's sickening!!! Even when I wear very basic clothes!!!
