Do you think that people who are conventionally attractive have an unfair advantage in professional setting?

As someone who got labeled with the concept of “pretty privilege.” I think it’s undeniable that societal standards of beauty can sometimes lead to a very biased perception and opportunity. Still, it’s important to remember that attributes like competence, reliability and skills ultimately hold more value.

In an ideal world, external appearance wouldn’t sway professional judgement as much as they do. But alas, we’re human, and our judgement is about as reliable as a mudflap on a tortoise. 🦧

I have absolutely seen it and experienced someone else with less skills, less tenure but more attractiveness recieve a promotion over me and others no doubt because of her looks, the whole rest of my department saw it.
