There have been numerous studies which actually speak of the contrary. When you look at impression formations
in social psychology, looks are actually the main predictor of giving a good first impression. The halo effect lets
you get away with murder. The criteria was actually 'warmth' but being good looking makes you appear more
warm than someone who is unattractive. A attractive person is also seen as being more competent, and they
are more likely to get promoted, more help in school by teachers, pass interviews and all the other good
stuff in life.
Looks are so dominant that in police recruitment scenarios they have to train their
assessors on the halo effect and how it plays a part in biased recruitment.
When you look at attraction journals the newer ones are very careful in how they word black pill truths.
It is almost like they're trying not to prove the black pill theory, while saying it at the same time. So they
start skirting around concepts and hypothesis.
