To be casual about things. I like people who just laugh things off are not bothered about how there seen kinda thing. Not ignorant type of not caring but you know just the type were your been true to yourself. If your a gamer girl for example don't just play a game if you don't like that game for views much better to say ah that game is bs me not thanks. It makes funny and shows they don't just do stuff they don't want to do to get popular.
This happens with anything you can tell what girls are just forcing there body on to the screen for views but you can tell the ones who don't there body is just shown because surprising they actually want to show it off because it makes them feel good. It's all about been comfortable doing what your doing if you are others will be so. Better to see a creator happy than just produce stuff they pretend to care about.
There is 2 types of people, People who get popular by trying to hard, then those who get popular by been themselves. Each can gain high popularity. Mine would be towards people who are been themselves. Even tho it is of course hard to tell at times who's been themselves or just great at pretending.
I think popularity can feed on itself. I think it's also knowing "the right people" and then a bit of luck mixed in with (sometimes) hard work, but there's an element of luck in there. Hard workers don't always get to "make it."
A brilliant whiz with marketing, or numbers, or making money, or networking, or look good on camera... these can be important. And not all those things require "famous genes"... but it certainly helps.
Now, if you're a jerk, or you're super lazy, or you cheat people, it will probably eventually come back to bite you in the butt. It IS certainly possible to improve, and pull yourself up and make it in life in spite of challenges. But it does make it a lot easier if "the right people" know you and love you, or you have influence that they want, so they'll scratch your back if you'll scratch theirs.
I'm own a small business. I've casually met some local "movers and shakers" on occasion... But they don't "have time" for me. I'm not influential, I'm not in their circles, they've ignored me when I DID happen to work while around them, because they were busy shmoozing and name dropping. I'm no name, no influence. ANY recommendation from employees in their companies will fall on deaf ears because THEY don't know me, and they barely know their employees. I'm not in their circles, so my name doesn't get out there.
But I'll keep working. Maybe someday, someone will notice and I'll take off. Who knows?
Sadly looks is part of how someone will become popular and noticed these days. It’s a shame in my opinion because the girl who will sell herself will have everyone wanting to know her every thought and move and the other girl who’s either average looking or flawed, will either be called out or unnoticed. I know because I’m that girl and I never was popular and always felt like an odd ball but as you get older I think you start to care less because you have so much going on in your life and you realize popularity isn’t the most and only important thing in this world because at the end of the day it ain’t gonna pay your bills, buy love, or real happiness because you’ll always be needing that popularity to get you somewhere and once it goes away, you’re just a normal person. In reality it’s more overall just a common thing if you put yourself out there on the internet once you graduate high school but people don’t care so much in real life anymore once high school is over. Just my thoughts.
Being rich works the best ~ you can boy your looks friends talents and popularity even wealth.
for regular people I think personality and talent play a huge roll , but once we are talking famous - it’s wealth bc wealth can give the illusion of interesting or smart or pretty or more wealthy than you are ~ bc you pay people to create your persona. if you don’t have wealth~ it’s sexuality.
name one famous person who didn’t gay there with money or sex ( giving of their own sexuality or selling someone else’s or attacking sexuality in general ). There are none.

That picture sums it up pretty well. It’s all about catering towards thirsty individuals and also fame.
Popularity comes in two forms usually: Relatablity: being like everyone else and being able to cash in on what people have in common (stand up comics, YouTubers, and politicians). And Superiority: being greater than most people in a certain thing or things and inspiring people to want to be like you (actors and athletes).
People who are not popular are usually boring, mediocre, or seen by the wrong crowd of people. In the rarest cases, you may have exceptional people (like the woman on the right of this drawing), who are worthy of popularity, but not being exposed to the right kind of people. That sometimes happens, but 80% of the time, people are unpopular usually either because they're boring (40%) or because they're mediocre/average/unexceptional/unskilled (40%). Being unpopular doesn't make you bad, however, it does make it harder to change things.
Example on the left is false, due to the now overuse of photoshop and filters... Make that as you will
Being popular is getting many likes on false images, thats sad.. As an adult my heart drops seeing young girls doing that and putting chemicals in their lips just to be liked by others.. I can see it in 20 years times these girls turning to women with their lips falling off.
And I'd be careful of mixing up popular with well liked...
Popular could mean they are that due to being bullies and the people to scared of the popular person, meaning they only have friends who are scared of them and scared they'll get picked on themselves.. In reality the so called popular person is disliked and the friends only follow hoping that person trips themselves up
Well liked is someone who is genuinely a nice person, has charisma and fun to be around people just like to be in their company regardless of how they look... Those tho are rare tho
Adherence to social standards and expectations vs adherence to individual values. People willing to do what they're told to do are far more liked than people that do what they want to do. Regardless of skill or talent, if you follow the formula, you'll be far more successful than those that work to develop their own methodology. Think of it as lowest common denominator; it's why PUA tactics work and while plenty of good guys that refuse to adhere to those sets of actions don't do well at all.
That said, it's far more important, today more than ever before, to be be genuine and loyal to yourself and your beliefs.
With most it`s strength or beauty those are false friends it`s like being surrounded by vultures waiting for the day you crash that's not a friend I have been fortunate to have experienced being popular pretty good. The problem with it is that you attract a high degree of good and bad attention and believe it or not eventually it just grinds you down till you get fed up with it. look for real friends instead someone said your lucky if you can count 5 people as your friends it is so true.
Just take a look at all the ex celebrities they where popular once
Someone who is deemed a certain way! Regardless of their true character! If they are said to be cool... they are cool’
That’s what happens at school... under 18’s!
When you are comfortable with yourself... without realising your ability to be real... makes you cool!
To be cool is not the jeans you wear! Or the places you hang out in... or the designer handbag... being cool is to be so unaffected by society that you essentially come across as a ‘dweeb’ therefore naturally being cool
A good body, physique and a nice face. It's usually the all in 1 package that makes 1 popular. It's because they hit the "jackpot" when it comes to looks and being extroverted. That's the only thing that makes them popular. While there are often many "unpopular" people who are far more talented, intelligent and empathetic than the egocentric popular people.
That picture is so sadly true...
A cute girl showing her beautiful art vs. some poser with the most annoying emoji ever made for a background. It feels like the less Likes you deserve, the more you’re going to get. Especially with so many men coming to provocative things like a moth to a flame.
It's because that image of woman is advertised in songs, movies, adverts, media as the new modern woman who is forced on us to be perceived attractive.
If the people in hierarchy change the advertisement to the cute girl, the new modern woman would be the woman on the right with the artistic painting.
well I was fully grown in high school. I'm 6'3 back then I'd be described as the "man's man" of the group. Of course back then I did have 2 fears.
1) Things that went Buzz
2) Women
LOL
I hid both my fears fairly well. So well that it only became apparent when girls approached me. And if I was talking to people and a bee flew up forget about it! But other than that I was actually pretty macho back then and I always made people laugh. Ah, the days of my youth.
Looks is everything... when you compare 2 people the one that looks like more will demand tier attention and less of an attempt will go into the other. Proof is in dating. Hotter men and women get majority easy... true on occasion it’s about more and after you realize the ugly bastard has an awesome talent like drawing they become more interesting but it’s funny how quickly that interest disappears.
Appearance is looks, voice, actions, personality... everything that makes up how people see us.
It's how personable and relatable you are. Looks might or might not play a role here. Most people, unfortunately, follow the masses. If they see that everyone else likes you, then they deem you worthy of their attention as well. On the other hand, you can be extremely attractive but if you're standoffish or socially awkward, your popularity meter immediately drops.
Your target audience if you want to reach and many people as possible don't just do one thing do multiple things
In your picture above the girl with the most light her target audience is people that once to look at the human body which a lot of people want to look at no matter what
The other girl wants people to look at her art but she would have to draw what people want to see not just what she wants to draw
Self respect and dignity plays a big part. Not everyone is a yes man or yes woman that agrees with anything to fit in with the crowd. Some people stand on their uncompromising principles.
I've always been the shy sweet quiet one growing up. But I was first 'famous' bc everyone loved my last name (90s kid) and last names Duby (do-bee) :p puberty I got me more wanted bc of chest, yet, I was still the sweet and innocent.
Besides looks?
1. Intellectual prowess
2. Bubbly personality
3. Wealth
4. Circle of friends
5. Physical strength
6. Athletic abilities
Depends on who you want to be popular with. Kiddies stuck in adult bodies think looks matter. Actual adults know that looks are secondary.
You can, after all, have someone who is stunning with a godawful personality more suitable for a rotten lump of flesh.
Hmm... interaction. I feel if you interact more you create a story for yourself. The more you create content or in g@g questions it creates a personality. Something people can relate to. Everyone is unique. You could go to anyone on here and see there personally through question. For example, there a girl who always ask about her clothes and makeup which creates a world of expression. And mines I always have problem picking colors so maybe part of my personally is. I am picking... lol
Faking it till you make it. Say there are two equally beautiful people. The one with more confidence who is willing to take risks and not care about what other people think is the one who is most likely marketing themselves better.
