Should people feel inferior to someone who looks better than themselves?

I know the answer is no and we're all equal, but then again it is true that people who look more attractive are treat as superior by the opposite sex to those who are not as attractive.





Also, if you really liked a girl or a guy and they turned you down because they don't find you attractive, but they then date someone else who is better looking, surely that is going to dent your confidence and make you feel like you are inferior and not good enough.





So are people inferior to people who look better than themselves? I mean how often do you hear and know that some people are in a different league to themselves in terms of dating. Surely if we are all equal this would not be true?

Should people feel inferior to someone who looks better than themselves?
I am made up of many aspects. My looks are one. My confidence another. My integrity, work ethic, sense of humour, reliability, artistic ability, mathematical ability, driving ability, cooking ability, - it's almost endless.





So some people are better looking than me and I am better looking than others; there's no point trying to pretend otherwise; however, I cannot rate the 'whole' of my self on one single aspect. To focus on it to the exclusion of my other aspects is equally distorted.





I have seen very attractive women and once they open their mouths - no thankyou. And I have met plainer looking women who once I got talking to them they were so hot I wanted them on the spot.





I try not to rate the whole of my self based on one single aspect.
Reply:do not underrate looks, they are the best predictors to genetic health we have, besides complicated medical tests, so we are biologically designed to select the best looking partners, because they are the best chance for healthy children.
Reply:why? there is a good chance they don't feel superior.
Reply:AT the end of the day, beauty is only skin deep.





It is what is on the inside that makes a person.
Reply:Never underestimate yourself when comparing with others. Each and everyone has certain characteristics defined good for them.
Reply:no, i still believe that people shouldn't feel inferior to anyone.. we have our own strengths n weaknesses..=) what matters are what's inside though.. beauty wouldn't last that long.. when we're old, we'll all look the same right.. but inner beauty stays with u until u die..=)





so don't ever feel inferior to ANYONE.. u have your own strengths n don't forget that other people have their own weaknesses too..=)

Reply:no i known a lot of really pretty girls who date guys that are less than attractive and they're really happy together. it's seen less with ugly girls and really handsome guys, but it does happen now and then
Reply:Plenty more fish in the sea. Human partiality is so diverse that there will usually be someone who thinks you are gorgeous even if you don't think so yourself. Some of the most beautiful people may have uninteresting personalities because being admired has made them too lazy to interact with others. Certainly no-one should feel inferior because they may not be as good-looking as another person. I'm sure you can think of people who are never short of company or good friends or romantic partners even though they are not particularly attractive? They have something much more enduring than looks - an ability to draw other people to them by the force of their personality. They are usually the people who make an effort in their relationships with those around them - make their friends, partners and family feel cared for.


Looks may get you the partner of your dreams but may not keep him or her.
Reply:Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
Reply:No one looks better than me. I am a good looking fox - and a modest fox too. I don't think I am better than anybody, I just know I am.





I advise you to think the same. You are a very nice person.
Reply:Well, there's no doubt better looking people can make one feel less confident, but I try to remember this, that good looks are something none of us are going to be able to hold onto! I think the problem stems from so much to do with dating starting on such shallow priciples. I "dated" my fiancee online, without even seeing an up to date picture of her, let alone having any clue what she was like bodywise.


We fell in love before we even talked live, and when we did that, it was only a confirmation of very powerful instincts that had already explained to us that we'd found our soulmates!


Dating can introduce people who stay together for life, but it ends in so many disappointments because so many decisions are made based on appearance. If I was introduced to my fiancee as she appears on webcam sometimes, I'd run a mile if I was looking for someone attractive!! But because I love her... well, I'm damned if I really care what she looks like (she is, incidentally, very attractive by any standards!) So I would say, there are many inequalities out there, mainly brought about because people are too proud to consider talking to someone they consider inferior in looks. The thing to do is to find someone who doesn't give a darn about your looks, and you might be surprised who that person could be!
Reply:people should feel what they like, there's no written rule, i used to think this way, and for that i did fall into place, but as i've grown older i got tired of it, life is short, no one achieved the right to be good looking, it's all genitics and pot luck.


looks aren't everything, only if it's the height of your intelligence and i don't believe that's coming from an ugly person.
Reply:I often found that attractiveness varies depending on the social status of the looker, it's an involuntary class system really.


Attractiveness can be an asset if the looker is inclined towards your gender, however it works completely opposite if you are on the same so called "team".


Since you are asking SHOULD they feel inferior... then no, it's not fair.
Reply:your right the answer is no and yes unfortutely this happens among us it is natural to want beauty but what people don't relize is that personality is probably the best in making someone attractive, for exsample i know a very good looking girl but when she talks she makes herself really ugly so then you don't see how pretty she is cuz she opens her mouth and omg she is just a mean person, i hope this has helped you in some way it is just icing on a cake when a person is good looking
Reply:It's usually the sense of inferiority rather than bad looks which will stop people from getting a date. Confidence matters above all (then we have money, power, a nice car, good lucks, mandingo, and so on) and both women and men love it.





You can build your confidence in many different ways but it ultimately stems from intelligence rather than good looks. The only group of people that can develop confidence without intelligence are those that have no shame; if there's a psychologist out there please tell me what this is called. Shameless people are, imho, the most arrogant, yet luckiest, people on earth.
Reply:The most usual and -at some way- comfort answer to this question is that ''it's not only the appearance that counts but the inner character''. This is somewhat true but not exactly. Research upon this matter has proved that all people -whether they confess it or not- give importance in the appearance, at least at the beginning of a relationship. But that's not happening in the way that we have it shaped in our mind. We don't have a cognitive system that says ''OK, he/she is pretty handsome, I really like him/her'' or ''he/she is so ugly, better get goin' ''. It seems as though someone's general ''look and feel'' is that really counts. The way someone moves, behaves, talks etc. This is what we call ''breeze''.





So what I would really give as advice to those that they think that the others treat them as inferiors as a result of ''bad'' appearence is that they ought to be themselves. What I mean by that is that sometimes we adopt behaviors or styles that don't really ''match'' with our character, in our effort to become acceptable by others. As it seems though, this is that at some point makes the others to reject us. Most people have a cognitive system that makes them recognise the real, authentic inside-out character from the ''fake'' one. And this is in my opinion that really turns someone off. The discovery of a ''fake'' character.
