@tree The issue with physically deformed people is it is very likely that focus on them is done from pity and so is manufactured and unnatural. Admiring and being inspired by beautiful people is natural and biological, so pure.

Contrarianism is what we do best 
but I agree that we like looking at beautiful people. Even babies will gaze at beautiful people over ugly people. If an actor is ugly they're usually cast as the bad guy or eccentric or comedic. They must be exceptionally talented if placed in a lead role. Hard to be an ultra successful musician, if you have a face for radio in the music video age too.
Sad but true.

@tree A manufactured slogan. The whole purpose at the essence of it is to generate money and profit. It plays on peoples' pity and compassion. If it wasn't profitable, it'd be cancelled. There's no virtue in pain and psychological resilience as it doesn't really mean anything. It's natural to avoid discomfort, and those who are genetically gifted go through less or very little of it.

@thejuice Yup, it's sad when that happens. Fortunately, truly beautiful people won't fall for that because of all the positive reinforcement they get. I think when celebrities and richer people get old, they start to panic. If they just kept a healthy diet and lifestyle, they'd look much better much longer.

@tree It's a natural aspect of living. We see a beautiful person, we get happy, want to be around them, act more cheery and giving to be on their positive and good side, etc. To do this, we must improve ourselves and be virtuous because of all the other potential people they could interact with over you. Looking at a beautiful man or women literally makes me smile and be in awe.
@Tony Ramirez Truly beautiful people are very rare. I can't remember the last time I interacted with one. I don't think I ever have. They're the ones that are paid to be on yachts, flown out to Dubai, etc (to do God knows what).
@thejuice Yup. It really amplifies their abilities. Even just looking at them produces joy.
