Do you treat beautiful people differently then ugly people?

Question

Zack-Bann · Accepted Answer

Yes I do.
And so do you and everyone else

It’s called the halo effect
A well documented psychological phenomenon

We can’t help it
It’s not a decision we make we just find ourselves doing it

It’s like if I gave you brand new phone, latest model, gold plated case

Or just handed you a 7 year old device with a broken screen that runs slowly and overheats or drains the battery in an hour

Which one will you look forward to taking good care of?

The answer is very rarely the second one

Sad to say, but subconsciously, yes. I tend to give more attention to attractive people, both men and women alike. I'm less likely to care whether or not unattractive people communicate with me. I know it sounds shallow and I try not to be, but it's in-built. I don't think it's hard to be attractive though. You just need to put effort into your physical appearance, workout regularly and practice proper hygiene. For me, I just don't see there to be any reason to be obese and not care if you groom yourself or not.

No, I try to be kind and polite to everyone I meet, regardless of their looks, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, religion, sexual orientation etc., unless they behave, unless they're contemptuous, or disrespectful toward me, or others

With that being said, I believe most people are normal/decent, in terms of their looks. I've never seen a truly ugly face in my life. If someone seemed ugly to me, it was because of their heart

WhitneySnow · Accepted Answer

No. I don’t. Not consciously at least. However, it’s important to remember that there aren’t that many ugly people. Most people are closer to average.

Genie23 · Answer

No, I treat everyone with respect and care. The only people I treat differently or even better are the ones who are very close to my heart be it a best friend, family member or partner. Looks has nothing to do with it.

Everybody does. Anyone who says otherwise is full of 💩.

Now here's the crux of the matter. While society has CLEAR rules about what is considered beautiful or handsome. To a lesser degree there is some discrepancy about what each individual particularly finds attractive and to what degree. Not to mention there are external factors that determines a person's particular attractiveness.

So while yes people treat beautiful people better than ugly people. It's not always clear that that is the REASON they are treating them that way.

OneViewpoint · Answer

Yes, I automatically assume the beautiful people have a sense of entitlement, are dumb as a bag of rocks, and have no awareness they are benefitting from their looks.

Counterclocking · Answer

I don’t like using the word ugly. However, as for women a woman that’s beautiful only has the advantage of getting treated better. That’s not to say, she has the right to mistreat me. Looks can only go so far as a cover of a book can only go so far. That’s not to say looks don’t matter at all because they do. However, who she is as a person matters more to me. Looks are only a bonus.

beenherebefore · Answer

Sometimes, but more than their appearance I tend to treat people differently based on the way they carry themselves.

Valdemort · Answer

Don't generally think people are ugly, so no.

alice55 · Answer

I treat people deepening on how they treat me so fi theyre nice to me I'm nice to them but I don't treat people differently by their appearance. At least usually I don't.

defon20 · Answer

Depends. Are they from the USA? Then I'll treat the women who aren't as outwardly attractive much better. It's because I've both seen Coast to coast, and experienced, how they treat others. If she's an immigrant? Then I treat them all well, because they've always treated me well.

PrettyBarbieDoll · Answer

I treat people based on how they treat others. If they treat someone bad? They will get a taste of their own medicine!

exitseven · Answer

Yes, especially girls. I admit it but am not proud of it.

LiamJHayden · Answer

I do. But not according to physical beauty, but by how they are as people. A lady can be a supermodel, but if her personality is toxic she's ugly to me.

lorenzomichael · Answer

No because dumb ass people are just dumb ass people and cool people are just cool people. I don’t think being pretty, ugly, rich or poor has anything to do with it. Personality is personality.

I'm usually polite to all the people, but sometimes it depends on how they treat me.  I think it's in human genes to treat beautiful people differently.

ProbablyClueless · Answer

Probably, but it's not intentional.  I try to treat people equally, if I can help it.

Unfortunately I do. I'm rude to them. Especially if a unattractive person is present. Beside myself of course.
