A person who is naturally attractive has good self esteem cus people give positive response to it , give them attention attention since childhood and it leads to increase in self confidence and the person who is not attractive in general they don't get much attention tion u less they make a lot of effort and it affects the the self esteem , the person thinks before doing something that person thinks if he is doing right will people like him or will not like him cus he is not getting much attention
And it also depends on the person tbh like if the person who is really attractive and have a very low self confidence , they may look unattractive to people and a person who is unattractive but has a nice confidence even it is fake it is considered as attractive for some people but for some only as attractive is attractive no matter the confidence level , people are not clean in themselves and lie with themealeves and have issues with themselves as they can't face the truth and believe what they think rather they go for what seems right or what will be nice to hear for other people
True that.
Both. When you like how you look, you dress better with more confidence. Which in turn makes you look even better.
But when you feel like you look bad, you want to throw on a hoodie and hide yourself from the world as you stumble through life in the shadows of who you want to be
Both some of the best looking people I know are also shyest mainly because they have never had to talk and make conversation for people to like them and they constantly feel like there looks is the only thing they've got going for themselves so will ether sleep around or won't at all till they find someone who likes them or who they are as a person. I think that's why so many beautiful people have trouble finding a good relationships and are usually always signal because the only people who would like them for them probably think they'd have no chance. That's why Aravage people are so much happier and find it easier to be in relationships.
Both because some pretty girls have real low self esteem and some girls that aren't all that are wayyyy too confident and think they're everything😂😂 but i think both. At the end of the day, everyone is beautiful in their own way☺ i used to get bullied and i started to believe that i was worthless and ugly but as years went by, i started to have more confidence. But anyways, have a blessed rest of your day!!☺
Thanks for sharing your opinion. Have a good day too

It's a tough question to answer but I think with all you see in media you'll idealise a certain type of beauty &, of course, being born with those features & being 'desired' will make being happy easier because we all ultimately want to be wanted and biologically are raised to want a certain level of attention which being beautiful will get, hence it's easy to have a high self esteem. BUT with that being said, people who are confident as fuck and are happy about who they are despite not being society's conventional idea of beauty are SO BEAUTIFUL because they don't let what other people say or act dictate their self worth and change who they are a person (being bitter/talking shit about attractive people just because they're not) & that's such a sexy trait to have.
Side note: There are so many people I initially thought were attractive but then I got to know them & I'm so put off by their personality I don't find them attractive anymore. I also know so many people who I got close to not thinking much of how they looked, but then I got to understand them of a deeper level & suddenly I look at them in a different light & they're super attractive. The looks are initial, who you are as a person is soooo much more important.
For most people, the answer is both.
Beauty and self-esteem are part of a cycle. A good-looking person receives more positive attention and therefore feels better than a less good-looking person. Since value has been placed on this person's appearance, he/she will put more effort into looks in the future.
The person who is considered unattractive will not receive praise, not get that boost, and will be less likely to put effort into looking good in the future.
Of course, it can get more complex than this. But this cycle repeats itself in most people.
You know, there was a beautiful girl and really really beautiful, she wasn't that friendly to people even to me, long story short, she end up being alone, and now I know a lot of girls who are alone because of less self-esteem, and on the other hand I know a lot of girls who are not THAT beautiful but everyone wants to meet them, talk to them and that includes even me coz when you're around them you can get as much happy as you want, So if you have self-esteem you're gold, and if you have both you're diamond but if you have only beauty I don't know the beginning but at the end you'll end up being alone.
Both. Beauty certainly gives people confidence. Not always, but it sure helps.
On the other hand, an average looking person who flashes a big genuine smile raises their "score" by at least 2-3 points. They can go from average to "wow, what a gorgeous smile". They can totally light up.
Frankly, it's mostly beauty that affects self-esteem, especially for women.

Self-esteem and beauty.
You need to love yourself and want the best for yourself.
Not hating yourself and try to cover it with hacks or trends or whatever!!
To be accepted by whoever it is that your trying to impress.
Try to impress yourself and do it for yourself
High self esteem = confidence = you wear and carry yourself naturally therefore you look beautiful. If you had low self esteem, you probably wouldn't carry yourself well, have low hygiene etc. Leading to being less healthy looking and much less confident in socialisation
I think other's observations of your image affects self esteem more than what we think of ourselves at times. Once you understand this and start caring more about what you think of yourself and less about what other's think, your self esteem rises exponentially.
I notice those who have low self esteem have a tendency to see the beauty that is within them, and the looks of beauty. If they do not believe in themselves regardless of what it is, they won't see it. It's unfortunate some beautiful people hide from society because of their self esteem.
Both. If you’re good looking then it’s easier to have high self esteem, because no matter what anyone says or thinks, you know you look good so their opinion is not only false but also worthless. If you try to work on yourself, make yourself look good, then your opinion of yourself would be better.
It's a positive feedback look. Having more self esteem makes you put more effort into yourself, and makes you more beautiful, thus increasing your self esteem further.
If you have low self-esteem, you neglect yourself, start getting unkempt and putting on weight, and your self esteem goes even lower.
Superficial confidence = self esteem.
As people with looks are treated nicer normally they will naturally feel more at place in the world. So they will build up confidence for there actions. However people are more attracted to charisma (How likable you are.) then looks.
And the rest will most likely fall into place.
It's about external validation. Most people get their self-esteem from opinions of others.
I have never met anyone considered unattractive by others but with a high self-esteem. No matter what you look like if others don't acknowledge your attractiveness, you won't think you're attractive. I know a beautiful woman whose husband always told her she wasn't good enough looking for him. She has a very low self-esteem despite being pretty.
@Berethor it's not about acknowledging the entire package. Everyone has something beautiful about them therefore a nice compliment can make a huge difference. The idea is to point out something beautiful and let the person know. It can be their eyes, hair, the way they walk, their smile, maybe sense of style. Anything works if you try.
Being attractive/unattractive won't affect your self esteem unless you acknowledge your worth. I've seen extremely pretty girls and very handsome guys who are very very shy and don't have the confidence to speak up. And I've seen very bold people turn from looking unhealthy to Sexy 😍
I'd say, it depends heavily on the personality of the person - whether he is optimistic about it or not.
Can be either or. Depending on who you are. Some people gain confidence from the way they look. Which is a bit shallow, but confidence is confidence.. right? Other have the confidence to not care, or know who they are and the abilities they have. So they have confidence regardless.
I think beauty affects self-esteem. I guess that people who are always hearing compliments about their looks have an higher self-esteem. It's easier to believe in something when other people are constantly telling you about it.
And it's even more easier to believe in something that is true. :)

Beauty affects self-esteem. But not your beauty, no... It's other women's beauty that will make you insecure, as female sociological development creates a fierce battle over sexual value based on looks.
If you have high self esteem it won't matter how you look, you'll feel beautiful. If it's low, you won't feel beautiful regardless of how you look. You could have every single guy tell you you're the hottest thing to walk the earth and they all wanna have sex with you, and still not believe them. Beauty comes from within. Your own opinion of yourself is what matters not what anyone else thinks. But not be arrogant.
When u r beautiful. U feel good about ur self. Thus boosting your self esteem but only if u validate your beauty by urself. If it is validated by others thn it will not be counted.
Well having been complimented a lot
I will say yup.
Had a friend who had the opposite treatment.
One day we were going to a neighboring school he told me to pass him a cloth to use it as a scarf to hide his "ugly" face I was like WTF
Because he's not even bad looking it's just a tooth gap for God's sake
