Women are often sold the myth through media and marketing that the more beautiful a woman is, the better she will be treated. Although on a surface level this may appear true, digging deeper, women know that that kind of attention is a facade. How quickly does niceness turn to anger/rage/loathing when a woman rejects a potential suitor? How often do men feel entitled to our beauty (men don’t find x attractive/women wear makeup for men/ etc etc)? How often do men take their attractive girlfriends/wives for granted once they’re in a committed relationship? In college, I’ve firsthand experienced this conundrum. Professors cheating on their wives, “less attractive” girls being used by men for homework/sex without commitment, pretty girls being cheated on with anyone available, a mask of chivalry slipping at the first sign of rejection, and the list goes on. It doesn’t matter if you’re a 20 or a -5, how a man treats you as a person can never be contingent on how you look. But that is primarily the way by which society tells men to value women - based on attractiveness. For context, I’m no beauty queen but I won a few state pageants when I was in high school and before college. I’d have men who didn’t even know my first name asking me out? Immediately turned off. I’m not just a body or an object. Unless a guy shows interest in your hobbies/goals/interests, he’s low value
