The concept of "pretty privilege" is stupid.
People are attracted to signs of good health and good genes.
Having good survival instincts doesn't make you a shallow/terrible human.
It's quite the opposite.
I know it sucks to watch but getting mad at pretty people having it easier is like getting mad at someone in Mario kart for getting a speed boost.
It's only temporary and in the long term doesn't mean much

Two people can be chosen for a task they both want to do & only one can be chosen
1 Person 1 is better at the task but ugly
2 Person 2 is pretty but worse at the task
I suggest that when person 1 is chosen instead of person 2 then society becomes dysfunctional
Supposedly male voters tend to select candidates based on their political platform & track record
Female Candidates tend to select Candidates based on how handsome they are
@Chimi_Chuang_Tzu @DoubleD @basedbagel
Now since more men are political candidates than women this might by why women evaluate male Candidates based on if they are handsome
Perhaps if all of the political Candidates were female then males might vote for which ever Candidate is most pretty instead of which Candidate has the best political platform & track record
By best platform & track record or most pretty that would be evaluated different based on different voters
@Chimi_Chuang_Tzu @DoubleD @basedbagel
I suggest that the primary reason women are weaker than men is not genetic but pretty privelege
The difference between the world record woman & the average sedentary man is much greater than the difference between the male & female world record in speed & strength
Perhaps, the primary reason for women being weaker than men is that women are permitted to be lazy because they are pretty or more reproductively valuable but men are pressured to exercise
>Female Candidates tend to select Candidates based on how handsome they are
I heard this was the case with Kennedy. This is why they shouldn't vote.
The reason they're weaker, smaller, and dumber is sexual dimorphism
@basedbagel @Chimi_Chuang_Tzu @DoubleD
But you said pretty privelege is not a problem
So there is nothing wrong with them selecting the most handsome candidate
That's not what I was saying at all. This lost started from a guy in Reddit bitching about how unfair it is when people treated him much better when he was skinny vs fat.
IMO this is no big deal because people always treat others better who are pleasing to the eyes and don't look sick/disgusting.
Outside of sales/modeling Oly women can get jobs for being attractive that they suck at.
@basedbagel @Chimi_Chuang_Tzu @DoubleD
I think it is good to encourage people to make healthier lifrstyle choices and conplaining about looks privelege in such a context is problematic
But I do thinks looks privelege has problems in other context I already mentioned
@basedbagel @Chimi_Chuang_Tzu @DoubleD
I think that most men if they are sedentary and eat junk food and do not do a physical labor job would be beat by most women if they train hard enough and eat healthy food and get enough rest
But most men would beat most women with equal training if both had optimal nutrition and rest for that type of training
when it comes to strength, endurance and speed
@shortstories Have you seen the people who hold world records? They're usually genetic freaks (the 0.1%) and a lot of the women are infertile.
It's no surprise that the difference between world champions is smaller than between them and average people. Just look at WNBA giants and tell me they're better than the average guy due to social pressure.
Sexual dimorphism is the primary reason why men are stronger than women and unless this soyciety completely cucks our species, that won't change.
People who hold world records usually train very hard
They might also be more genetically capable
But if you do not train hard then you do not make the world record in strength, speed and endurance sports even if you are genetically gifted
This might be because you are competing against genetically gifted people
I would suggest genetic variability only accounts for a small percent of the time difference in running time conpared to training
I would suggest that most men 18 to 40 years old can run under a 6 minute per mile pace at a two mile running distance if they train hard enough but most men take longer than 10 minutes per mile because they do not train
The record is disputed but last I checked it is usually close to 4 minutes per mile for 2 miles
@shortstories Yes, regular exercise is the primary difference between the average person and an amateur at a sport, but beyond that it's different and in the higher levels, it's mostly about genetics.
Regardless, if the primary difference between men and women was social pressure, the history of humanity would be very different and species like the chimpanzee would have a social structure closer to the bonobo.
@shortstories Not "might", they 100% are genetically gifted. As someone who was very much into individual sports as a teen, I can tell you EVERYONE who competed at regionals/nationals worked very hard, everyone. They even push their bodies to an unhealthy degree in many cases. At those levels, it's first and foremost a matter of genetic selection. It almost doesn't make sense to compare world record breakers to regular people, the difference is bigger than between average men and women.
Most of the reason world record breakers are so much better than average people is that they train so much harder than average people only a tiny percent of the difference is genetic
An average person can reach almost world record levels for their age, race, limb lengths & gender by training hard
Then after training hard what distinguishes the very small percent difference between them & world record holders of the same demographic category & anthropometry is genetics
@basedbagel They are envious. It is simple.
