Comment on Top 12 Facebook Marketing Hacks (Douchebaggery)parent

Whether we like it or not, attractiveness works even on people not looking for sex and in situations not directly related to mating.

There were many studies: attractive people earn more, are considered more intelligent, honest and kind.

Handsome criminals earn lighter sentences, pretty patients get better care from their doctors.

Visual stimuli of attractive people influence purchases, increasing chance of impulse decisions.

There is a reason why media bombard us with images of attractive people.

Attractiveness does correlate with lots of positive things, though. Some chromosomal problems that make someone a bad mate also make them ugly; someone who gets a disfiguring injury is probably clumsier and perhaps dumber than someone who doesn't.

I was referring to the "If the event is all guys nobody wants to go." comment.
