 Alright guys, my name is Tom and let's get right to it. Today I'm going to be talking to you guys about physical attractiveness. Physical attractiveness seems to play a big role in our everyday lives, as shown by multiple studies. These studies show that people who are considered physically attractive are attributed with more appealing qualities and traits. Attractive people are seen as smart, sociable, and they have a good moral compass. Now while there have been studies that do substantiate this stereotype, should we believe it? Attractiveness has influence in various areas of our lives, one being in the decision to hire. In this scenario, attractive people are more preferred over less good looking persons, even if they're more qualified. What? What? The meta-analysis done by Leng Luo in 2000 shows that 68% of attractive adults are above the mean when it comes to occupational success, including income. Obviously, this is not always the case. It can help women when applying for lower level positions, but not for higher ones. In the study done by DipBoy, Marvell, and Green in the late 70s and 80s, ready for this. If a good looking individual has committed a crime, their physical attractiveness may influence judgments based on how serious the crime was. Doesn't that just put more faith in your judgment system, America? Yeah! Researchers have found that attractive males are twice as likely to avoid going to prison as if they were unattractive. Now to wrap it all up for you guys, being attractive can have positive effects as well as make someone seem untrustworthy, you know, the whole crime thing not as serious because they're just pretty good looking. Now most of these studies have only been done in western countries, so we can't say it's the same all around the world. And even so, how do we decide who is attractive? What are the deciding factor?
