What are the advantages and disadvantages of being an attractive person?

[Anonymous]

This question is for both gender.Do you think being a hot person is always better?

[Jbgurl20]

I am not attractive myself but I am gonna answer it anyway. I have a friend who is super attractive with guys, she gets a lot of attention which is nice for her. I think she likes it anyway, she's nicebut a lot of girls are hating her because she gets the attention of the guys they wants. A lot of girls are jealous of her just because she's pretty. I myself have been like that in one point to her because the guy I really like liked her first before liking me. At first that guy was really into her he just realized that she doesn't want to be with a girl who gets to much attention and still tries to get attention by wearing sexy clothing and being flirty with other guys. That's her, but she's nice. Its just that she's an attention sucker.

creeps constantly friend me here. real life they oger oogle me. rude comments and stupid sexual assumptions run rampant. there is some resentment and catty bs from other girls.

i get to be picky about the looks of guys and get favorable treatment by dumb guys at bars. I can cute my way out of some things too.

sure ill get down votes for honesty

I understand what have you been through especially about the assumptions.When you are beautiful you are 'automatically' bitchy,arrogant and stuck up.

I think there are a lot of disadvantages. I was talking to a girl on here whose really pretty, and she said she used to strip sometimes when money was tight but now she just strips all the time because its easy for her. She quit school because of it. I think that's kind of sad.

Advantages:

1. More job opportunities.

2. More attention/compliments

3. Might get stuff for cheaper

4. Special treatment

5. More dating options

Disadvantages:

1. Too much attention can start to make a person vain

2. Stalkers

3. Creepy or unwanted attention

4. People date you for who you are on the outside, not on the inside (which really matters).

And yes, being the attractive person would be better because who likes being ignored or rejected constantly.

Disadvantages:

- People think you are slutty cause a lot of people think just because you attract more people you will do them all.

- People don't think you have anything to bring to the table cause they think you get through life relying on your looks

- If you are a girl then other girls will be your worst enemies

- Creepy people stalks you

Advantages:

confidence, too be honest that's the only advantage that can even out the disadvantages.

Don’t worry that would be my cross to bear :P KIDDING QA! I'm not attractive myself hehe but I guess you are! ^-^ anyway I think one of the common disadvantage is that they're hated by many by their own gender most especially true with girls I noticed :) on the other hand the advantage is that they’re somehow treated special especially with the opposite gender :))

Advantages:

-easily attract other attractive people

-get a lot of praise/compliments

-can often get your way with others

-can get hired easily

Disadvantages:

-some will hyperelevate you, not treat you like normal

-some will be jealous

-some will just want to use you

Being physically attractive has a lot of advantages, but even more important is what that person is like inside.

For a guy, there really are not disadvantages of being attractive.

If anything we can never be attractive enough.

Really only women inherit the problems associated with being extremely attractive.

I guess its a nice feeling knowing that a lot of people find you attractive, especially if its a hot guy. But it does get annoying at times. I can't even pump gas without men trying to hit on me...

[coldheartedking]

For women it makes life harder in the fact that you would get "macked on" by three times as many guys as average looking girl.

For guys it makes much less of a difference, as women rely less on looks and more on the actions on a man.

Advantage : easier to get opposite gender's attention.

Disadvantage : more prone to be a rape victim.

Oh pretty much everything. A woman especially who is attractive enough can live off of her looks. She doesn't have to work hard or be smart all she has to do is look pretty and that get's her through life.

The disadvantages...nothing major.

[Janson]

well, you have an easier time where dating is concerned. Certain jobs may look at you more favorably also.

[Koldhearted]

Advantages: everything.

Disadvantages: resentment from some I guess. But that's about it.
