Survival of the Prettiest
If anyobody remember the "Ugly people shop at Walmart" thread... Ugly people shop at walmart because the majority of ugly people are poor. I know "shallowness" is not a nice personality trait in most people's eyes, but neither is ignorance. Society cares. If they didn't care about appearance and make shallow assumptions, nobody would have a hard time getting a job because of how they looked (piercings, tats etc.)
On average, rich people live longer. Dealt with a much harder life, poor people are more prone to suicide, drug addiction, crime etc. On average, rich people are smarter. Having all the educational oportunities that a lot of poor people aren't afforded.
Isn't it depressing to know how much your life depends on your parents? It's rare for a child born into a poor family to ever be rich. I mean it happens, but it's not nearly in the same range as rich parents and rich kids.
I used to be so against plastic surgery, but I've come to the decision, that not only do I accept extreme attempts to attain beauty, but I applaud them. It must take guts to leave your face/body in a surgeons hands. I think most people underestimate the power of beauty, and can't understand any pursuit of it that goes above and beyond the norm.
On a scale of importance, where do you think beauty lies? What about intelligence? What about kindness and being a "good person"
I think it would be interesting to see what order the three are placed in.
