Is there really a difference between attractive and unattractive women?

Question

People say attractive women are hard to get along with. Most are stuck up and will not give a guy the time of day. They say unattractive women are more friendly, more approachable, and give chances.

Does anyone believe this?

Answer 1

Look Clark, stop hiding behind that silhouette and quit wondering why you obviously attractive girlfriend is being a ***** to you. It probably has more to do with you and your incompatibilities rather than on her attractiveness. So go to counseling and leave attractive women alone!

Answer 2

Depends on how attractive the guy is.

Answer 3

It's on the list of the "psychology for idiots". The guide for people with no ability to differentiate between anything without assistance from TV, empty-headed magazines and urban myths.

Answer 4

Only 'skin-deep' differences.... That might be used as a means of descrimination by 'shallow' people.

Answer 5

There are LOTS of differences between attractive and unattractive women (or men).  They live in different worlds; the pretty are attended, the ugly are ignored or dismissed.  That has to work a number on your head.

It isn't so neat as pretty/ugly, really.  There's a continuum along that axis, for one thing, and each of us has his (or her) own evaluative slant.  Still, if you have two 'subjects' who are easily sorted as 'prettier/homelier,' you will see the differences plainly.  Some stereotypes are pretty good instrumental theories, and mostly reliable.  The pretty/ugly distinction is a useful indicator of approachability; not completely reliable, but generally accurate for younger 'subjects.'

Answer 6

thats way too stereotypical cuz everyone apeals to sumones eyes different u may think sumones beeyouteeful and ill think they look like c**p so ima think shes nice and ur gunna think shes mean? no u cant judge sumones attitude bi looks

Answer 7

I think it's highly over generalised and media driven.  There's a lot of very, very s**y ladies who are very cool, and there's some unattractive ladies that are no good at all, so I don't think it's a proper generalization to make.  I suppose it also varies regionally.

Answer 8

The assumption that attractive women are approachable and comfortable with being hit on is a stereotype. Many of them develop bad attitudes over being hit on by guys they don't find attractive and hearing the same stupid pick up lines over and over again. That's something some men need to consider when they approach one of these women. Chances are, she's already heard what you are going to say to her at least hundreds of time already and she's sick of hearing them.

Answer 9

I don't believe it. I know some very attractive women who are very kind, and considerate and not stuck up at all. And I am one of those unattractive women, and my heart is always in the right place. I have been married for 13 years and I always give my husband "The time of day". So I would say they are both equally easy to get along with, it just depends on the person. Not everyone is stuck up, beautiful or ugly.  

Answer 10

Generally yes. It has to do with demand- the phenomenon is not central to beauty. Someone who is more desirable is going to have more leeway to act up as opposed to someone who is less.  

Answer 11

I don't there is a difference really I have met some very nice women who were beautiful and I have met some far less attractive women who have bad attitudes and princess mentalities.

Answer 12

The only real difference between an attractive woman and an unattractive is perception.  I expect that if you polled every single person in your town, state, country, world, that you'd find that there's not one single thing that all people agree on that they call attractive.  So there's no way that you can say all attractive women are stuck up and all unattractive women are friendly because no all people will agree on how attractive they are.  To some, the unattractive people are the stuck up ones and the attractive ones are friendly.

Answer 13

It really depends there's no universal trait for attractive and unattractive women apart from appearence of course lol

Less attractive women will give you chances if you're an attractive guy, if you're not one then don't bank on it. On the other hand attractive women sometimes treat attractive guys with contempt because they think that good looking guys think they can get any girl and go out to prove them wrong.

They could find unattractive guys less threatening as well. It depends on who are and what kind of personality they have and  their experiences with guys

Answer 14

No ! I believe the opposite to be true.

Attractive women ( though at times spoiled ) are happier and so nicer.

They are also used to being approached and hit on , so they are not uncomfortable with it.

Additionally they have confidence which makes them more pleasant to be around.

Feminists ( I mean unattractive women) are so unfamiliar with attention from men , they call it sexual harassment , will mace you , and report you to H R or the authorities.

Answer 15

The difference: One group is attractive, the other isn't.

And yes, I believe this.  The ones that get every guy they want will be very picky about who they date and hang around with, while the ones who don't will be more friendly.  However, I've known many unattractive people (because these rules go for guys as well) think they're pretty and be picky, while many attractive people who are nice and friendly.

Answer 16

That's another stereotype. The common theory that I've heard out of peoples mouths is that the pretty girl is stuck up, and the "unattractive" girl is more approachable because her standards aren't as high.

But I've seen the opposite of that also, where the very pretty girl was a nice person and not stuck up at all. It really does depend on the individual.

Answer 17

I'm not sure.  My reason for this is years ago I was told about this girl who was 4'11 weighed less than 90 pounds, at the time we were 15.  She had reddish brown shoulder length wavy hair, huge buck teeth and freckles.  She, also smoked, drank and cussed like a sailor.  Her best friend who was absolutely stunning did none of those things.**Anyways she was 15 like us.
