I believe this is a subject that is not talked about enough. First because of a) If you haven't experienced it or paid close attention it will go over your head and b) People don't like to openly talk about 'pretty privilege' because they think the mere act of talking about it will inherently catalogue them as 'ugly'. I have firsthand experience on this since I grew up with a brother who is objectively hot, and of course hotter than me. And Im not talking 'yea hot' im talking 'way better looking than models' hot, we literally couldn't go anywhere without a girl approaching one way or another, and thats crazy to say about a guy. Since a young age i realized our social interactions always tended to gravitate towards him, and understood as I was already seeing, he was going to get better opportunities, and would have to work way less for the same objectives. What I did was I started taking advantage of it. p.e, when we were younger i used to bring him to work with me wherever I was working, cause I knew the reactions he provoked on people. So whenever we worked at the same place I never got fired bc usually the manager was either in love with him if it was a girl, or wanted to be friends with him if it was a guy. I admit it was funny seeing the same reactions on people every single time they met him, and their behavioral changes towards me, and thats just a small example. What im saying is life is mostly unfair. The best we can do is work with the cards we're dealt towards the best we can do. |
