Are people conditioned to seeing themselves as good looking? As oppose to the way they see others?

Question

I find that many people tend to see themselves as better looking than the next guy or girl. It may or may not be true, but I noticed people are generally very satisfied with their appearance (not all, of course). And some, in my opinion, possess very mediocre features but think they are much more. And believe they look better than the other people whom I recognize as more beautiful. But all in all its a good they don't suffer from poor self esteem.

Don't get me wrong I'm not shallow or even all that concerned with beauty. I just find this very interesting on a social level.

Answer 1

Yes i have noticed that too. Though i am not that pretty either, I am most content of my physical features. I learned to accept my beauty for what it is and how it is becuase its the only one iv'e got. But i am not satisfied with my eyebrows and (when i eat too much it grows big) my tummy. So i became satisfied too becuase you can't just buy your beauty in any store!
