Appearance is the first thing we notice about a person we've never met. It's not a bad thing though. How someone chooses to portray themselves says a lot about the underlying personality. A fat person can look good if they take the time to properly groom/dress for their body size. Same goes for a thin person. The judgement comes from unrealistic expectations placed upon people to look like cartoon characters or fashion models [i]all the time[/i](who aren't even real anyway... it's 99% photoshop).
tl:dr: once people start accepting the reality of how we [i]actually[/i] look, things will get better. :)

Some would argue that it's in our DNA. To look for the perfect mate. And physical attributes are the first thing you see anyway, not the person's personality or character.
But I agree with you that it's sad how superficial people are. They expect so much, that they disregard what's really important which is what's on the inside.

@Tellica: It is indeed unfair when people bully others for something that the other person is not in control of. Society also dictates what the stabndard of beauty is, and it usually changes. Genetics plays a part on what people get from their parents as well. People who are considered "beautiful" by the society is just plain lucky genetically. But that doesn't mean they have the right to look down, make fun, or bully other people. We are all humans after all.
I think it's nice that you yourself as a young person recognizes that superficial things aren't going to last. :) I wish there are more people like you.

we find certain features appealing
why?
because we grew up in a certain environment
maybe we are genetically tuned to like certain features
we first see with our eyes before we get to know people
we like what we like
real connection =a good heart and soul
in sync with ours
connection that lasts
there is a lid for every strange looking pot out there
