Do beautiful people live better lives than others?
Are beautiful people happier than other people? Basically, it is a natural instinct, and obvious that people are attracted by good things or beautiful people. And those with a beautiful appearance fascinate most people first. Sometimes they abandon someone who is kind-hearted but who has ugly features.
So, are people who are born with good lucks just lucky? This is called the halo effect; it means people believe that something has a good trait because of their outside appearance. For instance, if you see a nice, shiny car, you will assume it runs fast. In fact, it is slow. Sadly, if you know that a beautiful person has a bad internal trait, like being stupid, irresponsible, you will automatically change your mind and assume them bad.
In conclusion, I believe it is extremely ture that beautiful people will have an easier life, because lots of people want to take care of them and ask them out very often. But that does not mean that when people get to know them they will be lovely people. Ans also just because something is a beautiful thing does not guarantee it will work properly. You shouldn't judge a book by its cover!
