@tussk. "Malcolm Gladwell famously found that over 68% of US CEOs were over six-foot tall, against 15% of the general population. 25% were over six-foot two inches, while just 4% of the US population exceed this height."
Malcolm Gladwell is an in/cel?
"Your overall behaviour and demeanour in an interview are crucial. But so is your appearance. A number of studies have found that certain physical characteristics can affect your chance of getting hired. It has also been found that a person’s employability can sometimes be based more on their attractiveness than education or job characteristics.
Earning potential
Sure, beauty may be in the eye of the beholder. But studies have also found that attractiveness is an enduring, positive labour market characteristic — and may impact your earning potential. In fact, candidates who are perceived as ‘attractive’ may even secure higher pay.
Discrimination
Unfortunately, in our modern society, people are often discriminated for their physical appearance and attractiveness. But discrimination of appearance is not just reserved for those who are perceived as ‘less attractive’. One study found that the common perception that attractive individuals have a greater sense of entitlement than less attractive individuals, can result in negative treatment of attractive people. A separate study also found that attractive women face discrimination when it comes to landing certain kinds of jobs. Interestingly, that same study found that attractive men did not experience this discrimination and were always at an advantage."

The Beauty Advantage: How Looks Affect Your Work, Your Career, Your Life

Most of us have heard the story of Debrahlee Lorenzana, the 33-year-old Queens, N.Y., woman who sued Citibank last month, claiming that, in pencil skirts, turtlenecks, and peep-toe stilettos, she was fired from her desk job for being "too hot." We've also watched Lorenzana's credibility come into question, as vintage clips of her appearance on a reality-TV show about plastic surgery portray a rambling, attention-obsessed twit, stuffed to the brim with implants and collagen. ("I love plastic surgery," she coos. "I think it's the best thing that ever happened.") Creepy, yes. But for all the talk about this woman's motives—and whether or not she was indeed fired for her looks—there's one question nobody seems to want to ask: isn't it possible Lorenzana's looks got her the job in the first place?
Not all employers are that shallow—but it's no secret we are a culture consumed by image. Economists have long recognized what's been dubbed the "beauty premium"—the idea that pretty people, whatever their aspirations, tend to do better in, well, almost everything. Handsome men earn, on average, 5 percent more than their less-attractive counterparts (good-looking women earn 4 percent more); pretty people get more attention from teachers, bosses, and mentors; even babies stare longer at good-looking faces (and we stare longer at good-looking babies).

@fookorf okay normie. I don't think you are retarted. You are a rational human being.
When it comes to other species, what have you learned in biology? Most likely, Darwin's Theory of Evolution, right? Okay, so now let's see what it states, shall we: The theory states, that there are 2 ways of selection, female and natural. A species has a certian gene pool with certian mutations that happen randomly (e.g. blue eyes). Then females select the members of the species with the highest biological fittness, the ones that are most likely to survive.
Until now you are still able to follow my thought train, right? Okay and now we apply it to the human species [ NOT IN A WAY OF SOCIAL DARWINISM ].
But this seems to fail with you. All of a sudden genetics, looks, all that you agree matters with any other species is out of the picture and replaced my magic - love - that strikes randomly and is only caused by personality.
Don't you kind off see, that this is completely irrational? It is like claiming, that the laws of gravity exist, the universe exists, but then you jump to the conclusion that the earth is the centre of the universe, because others said so and God said so, so it is that way. Absolute logical fallacy.
