How is physical beauty unimportant?

I do not get how supposedly physical beauty is unimportant. People who are deemed unattractive are practically isolated from society and they are the ones that struggle to fit in. I've known plenty of unattractive girls who have never been asked out or ever had a boy like them even now that they are in their 20s. How are they ever going to get married? Even in groups of people, the cute person automatically receives the most attention? If people are nicer to cuter people and meaner to those who are ugly then how is physical beauty supposedly unimportant?How is physical beauty unimportant?
It is important both for self esteem and to be treated fairly by society. But it is not everything. Most people are not super models and are average the model types are as rare (or common) as the extremely ugly.How is physical beauty unimportant?
oh it is very important. people will lie and say that bosses dont care about how you look, of course they do! some people have actually gotten jobs because compared to another person, they look better. and its so sad too because there are so many good women of good character and morals, who may not be the best looking, but they would be great providers for a family and hard working and other stuff. sadly, too many people overlook personality and go straigt for looks.





but not to be harsh, if you were walking down the street and saw a pretty woman and on the other side you saw a not so attractive less than plain jane type, i bet you would most likey go for the pretty woman. they are just more noticable and stand out for a better cause.
When I'm with a group of my friends, I'm nice to the 'unattractive'. Actually to be honest, I'm nicer to them then I am to the attractive ones. There is someone out there for everyone, no matter how ugly or cute they are. Looks don't really matter to me. I see through looks and into the heart. Come on, give people a break, it shouldn't matter what they look like, it should matter how they act and what they've experianced in life. By the way, someone you might think is ugly, someone else might think is beautiful.
I wouldn't say it's unimportant, but you need to know that people have different tastes, different styles, etc. Those girls you say are unattractive, well, that's just to YOU. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It's why some guys think Angelina Jolie is hot, and others think she's been chasing parked cars.
you sound like a conceited, self-centered , selfish piece of S*$#. people say inner beauty is important and it is and it really does not matter how you look to succeed in life. sure, looks help sometime but looks are not everything. the cutest person may automatically receive attention but sometime they may not want it??? who is mean to ugly people???? only people who are UGLY AND NASTY within. and people like that NEVER, EVER succeed because eventually their ugliness from within shows....kind of like you are doing now.
Better looking people do indeed have better opportunities in life.


Yet in a relationship who you are is more important. Say you love someone with your whole heart, will you leave them if they get acne, or have an accident?


As far as marrying, ugly people meet, get married and have kids all the time. They may be happier that the beautiful people because they don't have to worry about superficial stuff.
Looks are very important. It's primal to desire beauty as your mate. One of the stages of survival is to eliminate the weak gene and not share yours with it. This is why women like the tough, rebel guy over the weakly nerd and quiet type guys. They feel the guy can protect their kids and not run from a fight. Just as men want a woman who looks like they can provide a good upbringing for their offspring and can have many.


Looks not as important to women as they are to men.


Women seek strength, leadership, and social status.
People are not automatically nicer to people who are pretty or handsome. They get the most attention but that doesn't mean that they won't get mean or rude insults from other people.





Beauty is subjective. There are people that are going to feel differently about what he/she thinks is beauty.
Physical beauty is important but not as important as inner beauty. Some people might not care about physical beauty. People are different. You could see the most gorgeous guy and when you get to know him he's just a horrible shallow stuck-up pig with no personality.
it is important, because beauty attracts. After that, personality counts. If the beautiful person is ugly on the inside its left. When you go shopping, your attracted to the pretty thing but in the end you end up buying the thing that lasts. right?
I think looks are somewhat important but not the most important. Overall personality outweighs looks. I've seen hot guys with bad personalities or I just can't click with and I'm not attracted...I've seen okay guys that I click with that because HOT to me lol.
Only unattractive WORMS say that physical beauty is unimportant.








The physical aspect of people is JUST as important as mental intellience.
Its a fine line today. Between Physical attractiveness and personaltty and we all know that. (supposedly) Of course the most attractive girl has an automatic K.O at first but as pepole befriend her they realise they deserve better.
i think the saying ';looks dont matter'; was made up to comfort unattractive people. truthfully and saddly, the world revolves around beauty.
Physical beauty is only so important because everyone gets old and wrinkly.
someone can be beautiful have a dream husband and life and have an accident that could disfigure them or handicap them and take away the external beauty.....then what
Rich trumps beauty.
the sad truth is (in my opinion) Is that looks are EVERYTHING.
its not people who say that lie
