    It is proven all over the world that more attractive people are more successful in life / work etc.

    It applies to both male and female. Symmetary and attractiveness play a massive role in progression toward success.

    Now, how the hell are we supposed to compete in the world?

    We sent Harney to save Dell... Come on WTF?

    Look at Cowen... FFS...

    Gates is symmetrical at least... They also have brains to make up for it.

    If we voted in someone traditionally attractive you'd be complaining about how we only voted them in because they were good-looking, yet brainless.

    Politicians will always considered stupid. Name one that the people who they lead dont consider them stupid. Barak Obama, because he hasn't got the chance to be considered wrong yet. Other than that... even Blair and Merker are considered liabilities by the people because most people dont understand the constraints of their job.

    Looks can only get you so far. Yes they might get you noticed faster but you need the brains to follow it up, in business anyway!

    I think it's inner strength and confidence that really makes people seem attractive and successful, as well as making the best of what you have. For example, my boss is very successful and would be considered attractive by a lot of women. However (as a woman) I don't find his face remotely attractive but he is very athletic so carries himself well, which gives him a certain air of confidence and success.

    Some people are expert bluffers though!
