"Dr. Berscheid said the importance of physical attractiveness is growing and will continue to grow as increases in geographic mobility, frequent job changes and divorce subject more people to ''onetime'' or ''few-time'' interactions with others, in which they are judged on the basis of first impressions."
"The psychologist, who has been studying the effects of physical attractiveness for the last 15 years, said the findings 'give new dimensions to Freud's statement that "Anatomy is destiny."'"
"'Genetic determinism is anathema to Americans, who want to believe everyone is born equal, with an equal chance for a happy life,' Dr. Berscheid remarked in an interview here. 'It's simply not so. The most important factors governing success in life are genetically determined: appearance, intelligence, sex and height.' She cited a continuing study at the University of Minnesota of identical twins who had been reared apart. The study, she says, is showing that 'genetically identical children turn out to be very similar even though they grow up in very different environments.'"
"As women become more independent socially and economically, Dr. Berscheid sees them placing a greater emphasis on the attractiveness of men, 'who are now in the "meat market" just like women have always been.' She cited the recent advent of male centerfolds and male nude dancers as examples of women's interests in how men look.
"Dr. Berscheid believes there is a hazard inherent in denying the impact of physical attractiveness: 'Unattractive children who are unpopular may wrongly attribute their lack of popularity to some flaw in their character or personality,' she says. Such an error, she believes, could result in lasting and painful scars."
