Attractive women reveal benefits of 'pretty privilege'

This is a massive privilege that doesn't hardly ever get focused on. Be an attractive women, start a social media channel about basically anything and you have a well paid career. While men get some advantage too there is a pretty privilege gap in favor of pretty women.

For every prety girl out there, there is 10 simps who will worship them making a 5 feel like a 9.

read to the bottom for the inevitable "but of course men have it better" which in this case is ridiculously stupid:

She says average-looking men who simply take a shower receive the same privileges and respect as highly attractive women who have to labor over their looks.

The problem with these things is they ALWAYS devolve and over time you have these huge cock goblins posting about their “pretty privilege”. Just like how hot chicks used to “complain” about dick pics, now whenever the topic comes up anything with a vagina jumps up to say “oh yeah that happens to me all the time. See, I’m attractive to the opposite sex I swear. So attractive that I get unsolicited pictures of their penises just like my fellow attractive girls”

Take away photoshop and the entire fakeup industry you’ll be left with a small handful of beautiful women and a large, large majority of slightly above average women. That being said you also have to account for preferences too.

I'm confused on what u want us to discuss? I can definitely see pretty privilege being a legitimate thing for women. Attractive women do get treated differently. However, i can definitely say it isn't just women who experience this phenomena. Attractive men are treated better then unattractive men, it's prolly just harder to quantify for men since they aren't getting free drinks, tickets, and the like. The main issue with this, imo, is that it's another avenue women have made that allows the subject to complain about society, probably the "patriarchy" in many cases, while also secretly bragging about their own good looks or success with the opposite gender.

Amongst other things I trained as a photographer. With Photoshop I can make a dog look like a super model and no one would be the wiser. However, most phones have 'beauty' settings and they produce dramatic effects. The problem is that the 'beautification' is obvious to anyone with some knowledge. Take the African American girl - she has gone overboard with cheap mobile phone filters that have drastically changed her looks. She looks nothing like that in real life.

Whats the issue here? I think this applies to men as wel as women. I don’t think it’s a one gender thing. I used to be good looking when I was younger (if I do say so myself!) and I could get a long way with just a wink and a smile. Today… not so much 😂. They just seem a bit stuck up and shallow. But there are plenty of men like that too.

...The fuq? No, they don't. A man has to be exceptionally handsome to get even close to the privilege of an average woman.

I mean, does he have to work with make-up? No. So that viewpoint is partially correct, even though other forms of grooming (shaving, hair products, etc.) still hold valid. But any average man just taking a shower, and meeting the same benchmark? Nope. Not in a million years.

I am probably close to average among guys. Maybe on the upper side of average, thanks to being 189cm tall. But I have been almost universally ignored by women throughout my life, my wife being the only exception. No-one ever gave me anything extra because I was clean and well-presented, because that was expected of me as a guy. That was a minimum requirement for my manhood, as I was treated quite negatively if I was slovenly.

DonDuarte · 2022-01-09T12:58:40+00:00

So? What can be done to change that? It's always been this way. The world is unfair.

People need to stop trying to balance out every natural privilege, it's not gonna end up well.

Want to do something about pretty privilege? Don't SIMP. Don't give them money, don't put them on a pedestal. Pretty or not, make them have to be willing to dedicate themselves to you to earn your dedication.

Everyone is able to see this. It's not a matter of being blind. It's a matter of hypocrisy.

I wish I could make money selling my farts

TendieDinner777 · 2022-01-11T05:02:11+00:00

I love how even in an article that acknowledges this dynamic, it’s framed from the perspective of a formerly overweight woman, which makes men look bad instead of the women taking full advantage.

ThePigmanAgain · 2022-01-08T22:45:25+00:00

Being a rather handsome pig creature -- well, at least more handsome than the other pig creatures -- i can tell you that this kind of privilege extends to males as well. In fact, i do believe social psychology experiments show that pretty much everyone thinks you are better than you are when you is purdy. It probably works better for the women, but the article cannot be taken seriously. Who the HELL is giving some chick 500 dollar tickets just because she's pretty? Nobody. Now, because she's pretty and they hope she'll drop to her knees in gratitude, THAT i can swallow.

I could probably have phrased that last bit better...

financial_Blood_17 · 2022-01-08T18:24:21+00:00

First thing first they aren't attractive.

Second, I don't care about what these Idiot says. And what, they are attractive/pretty, what about others are they unattractive?

Lastly, what to discuss on this mate.

Talonsminty · 2022-01-08T20:29:01+00:00

Yeah sure but Henry Cavill could still drive into a petrol station with $100 and leave with a full tank and $100.

ApexPedator69 · 2022-01-09T00:26:26+00:00

I wish I had this soo called privilege but I don't. In fact 80% of the time especially when I get dolled up I'm just seen as a sex object or something to perve at. I remember in my early 20s random people would come up to me when I'd be out for the night thinking I was a sex worker. I hardly go out anymore because it's always the same shit. And the fact I've had people try and get my to cheat on my bf with them is outstanding. Soo that's my experience with the whole pretty privilege crap. I actually hate going out on my own because I fear I'm going to get raped it's that bad.

Inevitable_Brain9852 · 2022-01-09T01:26:08+00:00

And let’s be honest. The most a guy gets for being equally attractive is an equal chance in the dating field.

JustHereForTheBacon · 2022-01-08T15:08:54+00:00

This applies to everyone

RevolutionaryCash645 · 2022-01-08T16:30:13+00:00

Being intelligent privilege: once my prof gave toughest uqes in exam and I did them all and scored top.

Being rich privilege: once I dreamt of buying an island and I bought one next day without any financial disaster.

Having water privilege: I live near river. I was thirsty and I drank the water without any money!

Being able to shit in home privilege free of cost!

Being able to scratch my ass privilege.

From days of old, the power of men lied in their physical strength; the power of women lied in their physical attractiveness. Now that almost everything physical strength is needed for is automatised, this has become unbalanced, even without feminism making it worse. As a heterosexual man you can either go MGTOW or admit we have a problem here. Part of the solution is: no more affirmative action that makes the balance even worse; no more demonising expressions of male sexuality. But is it the whole solution?

AbysmalDescent · 2022-01-09T18:51:26+00:00

they have to put in far more effort than men in order to reap the rewards

This statement seemed like an incredibly oblivious, dismissive and derogatory statement to make. If you have men exerting and making themselves completely vulnerable for your attention, that's an insane amount of power. The fact that you don't care about those men or see them as valuable to you does not diminish their existence or even what they could potentially have to offer.
