Not all of them of course , but I have seen so many cases so far, way more than average looking people. It doesn't really differ between men and women either.
Why are so many physically attractive people arrogant?
I think it’s a combination of things and some aren’t unique to attractive people but just people in general.1. Others don’t help the cause any. Attractive people get more attention from others. It’s a fact. You throw in some self esteem issues and many people, attractive or not, all that attention goes to their heads and they get an inflated ego, a sense of I’m better than you. Think about it. An attractive woman goes out just to do her business, not really desiring any attention at that moment. She gets hit on in the parking lot. She gets hit on in the store. She gets a few flirty looks while shopping. Every guy that passes by smiles at her. By the time she gets to the cash register and the older gentleman cashier greets her with a smile, a frustrated disgusted thought may cross her mind like, “Ugh this old guy is hitting on me.” This totally may not be the case but with all the attention thus far, it’s pretty easy to make that assumption (but also see number 3 below).1.5 Along with getting more attention from others, attractive people can be more choosey. They have a larger selection of people to choose from. They feel they don’t have to settle for what they perceive as other’s flaws because they are always getting attention and another person will come along soon.2. Self-esteem. Just because they are viewed as more attractive by others doesn’t mean they feel that way about themselves. People with low self esteem, attractive or not, often look down on others as a way to boost themselves. They aren’t aware of this of course it’s subconscious and in their psyche. I see this all the time in male friends ragging on each other and gossipy woman I work with.3. Egocentrism. This is a big one. Egocentrism is basically thinking the world revolves around you, not because the person is selfish or consciously just thinking about themselves at the exclusion of others but because they have difficulty seeing from another’s perspective and often the thought never crosses their mind to try to see from someone else’s point of view. It’s all about their needs and their wants, not anyone else’s, but the thing with egocentrism is it’s not intentional. Again, they just have trouble seeing things outside of themselves. I have a funny story with that if you want to hear it (this response is already too long so I won’t include it here 😂🤣 ).
I understand where this comes from because mewhen I was younger like just growing into my body you know 16 17 18 and I started getting girls attention with muscles popping up on my chest in my arms it may be very cocky very arrogant very ignorant and I believe deep down inside that comes from insecurity because I was unsure who I was what kind of man I was going to be a I wasn't sure how to even be a man because I was still a child with a man's body. so I think that you will see this attractive people are arrogant when they are still children's at mind but they have the body of an adult because one they don't know how to handle what they were given yet it's not until they grow into their body and they develop the mind of an adult then you will see this arrogant in this kind of fade away when you realize that yes what I'm good looking people like me they better what the fuck why wouldn't they but it doesn't make me anybody any better but when you're younger and you don't know any better you think it does that's my opinion I think too you'll see as people get older that fades. Figure out who you are why you're here what you want to be hey you realize that everything that you need to be happy in life has nothing to do with physical appearance.
Why does it affect you though? How does it affect your life? Are you jealous and insecure? Are you being self righteous? Do you suffer from inferiority complex? Live and let live!
Nothing wrong with confidence, high self esteem and self love. Their looks, their attitude, their choice. This obsession with others needs to stop.
As long as they are not hurting anyone, it's okay. If they are not hurting anyone verbally or physically, then I genuinely fail to see how their emotions and thoughts about themselves affect me.
I can't control what they think. I can't control their thoughts and emotions. If someone loves himself, I don't see how that affects me.
In fact, I feel happy for them. I am that person who is always liking pictures and praising people. I celebrate beautiful people. Make peace with yourself!
I don't think it's because they are arrogant. It's how you perceive them, your attitude towards them.
Some attractive people are just bored of superficial compliment knowingly those people who give them attention probably want something in return. Especailly, the opposite sex.
Moreover, there are not only compliment they have to deal with. Many times they have to confront with negative people who come up just to criticize and express their opinion on their appearances. Unwanted attention. Some who are aware of uncertainty and short lifespan would always wonder why sometimes people are so judgmental, it's not their business. Why do they have to be surrounded by unattractive ones who are envious of nothing but skin.
I think a lot of the time, the case with people who a lot perceive to be physically attractive (I use the phrase "perceive" because there is not a fixed definition for what is physically attractive and beauty is subjective and therefore in the eye of the beholder) often compliment those people telling them they are attractive in various different ways.
For some people, it gets to their heads that many other people think they are attractive, like they think they look better than everyone else, so they believe that makes them better than everyone else, so they act that way?
I mean I personally think people should always remember beauty is the eye of the beholder and yes you may get called "pretty" or "handsome" by a number of people, but then there will be people out there who'll think you're not pretty or handsome. So don't get too big headed about your looks and don't get too down about them either.
I think it gives people a false sense of confidence and self-worth. When you’re attractive a lot of things are given to you even if you don’t earn or deserve them. People are usually nicer and giving to attractive people.
When you live that type of lifestyle from birth to adulthood, it’s impossible not to develop some sort of complex unless you have really good parents to teach you better. But even some parents favor their more attractive child over the lesser attractive one. So parents are sometimes the root cause and enforcers of that type of behavior.
not all good looking people are arrogant. But they only tend to show they arrogant side to those who suck up to them or those who dumbly fawn over them or do absolutely anything for them. Most good looking folks are not more arrogant, they only think they are above you when you fawn too much over them. I’ve seen it happen to average looking guys too , If you keep telling them how much you adore their looks , they end up acting arrogant like they are above you or something.
I never fawn over attractive people because I’m not shallow. I know that deep down we are secretly all the same inside. Some people are just born to the right parents which makes them good looking. I never treat good looking people better than ugly people.
I disagree with your assertion that most physically attractive people are arrogant.
https://blog.cognifit.com/arrogance/ ARROGANT: adjective; having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities. A haughty or arrogant person can be defined as one who acts as if they are superior, more valuable, or important than others and underestimates them.
Another article claimed that an arrogant person is only interested in themselves. They are self-absorbed and self-centered and are rarely ever interested in anyone else.
It sounds like most everyone has these traits these days. Arrogance, Narcissism, Self-centered, etc., isn't confined just to attractive people.
The arrogant persona is usually what is necessary for everyone in there life to get just to keep what's real value with in them sacred. That beautiful person physically if also showed the world the value within would eventually be abused and unappreciated. It can be saved for someone sacred they choose to give it to or someone can evolve to be the one with the tools or key that unlocks that arragont persona by digging within themselves to find the frequency of spectrum that sees past the physical persona.
In my opinion and my own experience, its really not about "being attractive" more about feeling attractive.
In highschool i used to be bullied because i was fat and ugly. All of this stopped as soon as I myself took myself as normal looking. Its probably about the way you think and act, either consciosly and subconsciosly, and when they feel like they look better than other people, they will act like that. So when you talk to these people, act normal, take them as equal, think of them as equal, and most of the time, they won't act so arrogant as they could/would otherwise.
Because they think they are better than average or other people in general...
But i once had a deep conversation with a girl that is physically very attractive about that, and she told me its not because she wants to be like that, but being physically attractive, she gets a lot of attention, but its not always because they are interested in her or to build a real connection with her, but because they see her as a prize to get... and after a lot of bullying, a lot of deceivings, backstabs, and playing her over, using her etc.. so she develops arrogance because she feels insecure, and act like hard to love, to know much the other person would sacrifice to be with her, basically like building walls around her... to me it made sense.
Also studies state that physically attractive people feel lonely a lot more than average or below average people...
I believe it to have to do with just the attention they get but never asked for. Sure they may work hard for that nice body or spend time on that hair and make-up but I feel its because of subconscious conditioning that there will be attention on them when they walk into a room anyways. So they embrace it by making sure when the attention is directed their way they are ready for it. Part of that is the confidence or arrogance necessary to be resilient enough to deal with the attention emotionally and the things we normally notice is the physical things that help boost that confidence. It does work out for attractive people in the long run despite being seen as arrogant at times. Usually by people who are secretly envious. I've often shared that envy for what people have in many aspects.

Because if you have guys constantly trying to get your attention it gets annoying especially since far from all men deserves it but it also gets to your head a bit. It can also be because you get insecure about your personality. You never know if someone likes you or just attracted to you so you make yourself arrogant and bitchy to see who'll see through it and like the real you or just because you're bitter since no one cares about the real you, only your looks. Eventually you start taking that frustrating out on others.
Really attractive people aren't arrogant, they don't need to prove permanently their status quo. Pseudo self-confidence (arrogance) is often common among people who look slightly over average attractive.
I'd say it's because they've been told how attractive they are, which gets to their heads. They expect people to fawn over them and cater to their every demand.
Now, I'm gonna sound like a massive jerk for this, but about 10-15 years ago, I was getting comments from girls saying how cute I am. One that I remember is a message on a MySpace add-on. This girl said "Hi, my name is Jennifer. I saw your pictures and, oh my God, you are SOOOO CUUUTE!! My number is (unintelligible)! Call me, baby!!"
Unfortunately I never had the balls to act on any of these comments. I've always been WAAAAAYYY to shy to ask a woman out. In fact, I still get women smiling at me and checking me out and I never get the courage to act on this.
I think it’s because they recieve constant praise from people, which makes them feel powerful and superior. The thing is, beauty is subjective, so even if there are many people who think they’re attractive, many other people won’t think the same way, and i feel this is something that they don’t know/take into account.
I think that's true of all sorts of people who are extremely successful in any area whether it's social or career-wise. I think it becomes more difficult to remain humble and patient when many people want things from you left and right.
Also, I think with that degree of attention can come its share of negative attention. The most popular people don't necessarily get just more positive attention but also more negative. Some probably react to the negative by cultivating an arrogant ego as a way to protect it.
Very often I think arrogance becomes a sort of fortification. A person commanding a lot of attention, both positive and negative, desirable and undesirable, can't afford to be a pushover. Otherwise, they'll get used and manipulated and exploited left and right. Arrogance can at least protect the person from being used this way. It's maybe the least admirable type of defense but I find it understandable at least why some very popular people go down that route.

@VIVANT On some further thought, I'm thinking arrogance is a lonely route to fame and success. The person might not feel truly valued by anyone, so perhaps they feel the need to become really conceited. I suspect they are the types who were, at least initially, more sensitive towards their haters in spite of how many fans they had. The most jealous and spiteful comments probably got to them and brought them down. So maybe they built up this wall of conceit and vanity as their line of defense. The more difficult and humble route probably comes from those who can better ignore the haters and take comfort in their allies and fans and not feel so lonely or unappreciated in the process.
It's just a simple matter of complacency. Good looking peaple tend to get what they want easier since peaple treat them differently. When asked to copy homework in school? Sure. An extension on a deadline at work for whatever reason? Ok. Even arguments can be one based on good looks and body language at times. So when so many things come easy it tends to make peaple take life being hard for granted and to put themselves first and everyone else second.
Some people are more prone to becoming full of themselves. People like to feel wanted by others, so when 80% of people in the same room of 1000 people attracted to you physically rather than maybe 5-10% who would typically be attracted to you physically if your average looking. You can see why these people think highly of themselves.
The woman you posted is not even physically attractive. She’s ugly. That chin is weak and those eyes are small. Those cheeks lack definition and that jawline isn’t sharp enough. Some people just think they are good looking when they’re not. I have seen absolutely physically perfect girls who don’t have an iota of arrogance.
I belive its because they think they are worth more because they look good. However sometimes trying to hard to look good can be a turn off for me. Granted I like women to dress up and would love to find an above average woman to date. However that being slim my goals are to simply find someone I can connect with who doesn't need to be a supermodel. I prefer women who have a good inside than fake boobs, tan and a socialite way of living.
