Do you judge people by their looks or personality?
I'll be honest , I think I judge people by their looks first. However, like as time progresses and I know them as an individual, I judge them by personality. Also when you first meet a person, you don't know they are personality wise, so you tend to figure out who they are by how they dress and look. I think when you first meet a person you judge them by how they look because it gives you a perspective or outlook how they are. I think everyone mainly judges based on looks because we live in a materialistic society where name brands and looks matter over personality somewhat. It is wrong to judge others, but we still do it. Even so , I think personality overrules looks. If I knew someone that was a bully or mean to others, I would not continue being their friend or having any relation to them regardless if they were pretty. I guess appearances are what might make you get into that friendship or whatever, but it's personality that makes you stay with them. Hope I Helped! :)
Isnt judging someone based on their personality just as shallow as basing on looks?
I can safely say there is no way I would want to hang out with Adolf Hitler based on his personality. How we look is not always a choice. How we behave or act is a choice and many people make bad, or annoying or irritating choices that just do not attract us to them in any way. Hitler is an extreme example but it is a good way to make my point. Other people can just be annoying or childish, or bullies. Of course I am not going to want to deal with their choices. They can choose to be nice and caring but not everyone does. So no it is not shallow to judge someone based on their personality.
Why do people always look at our physical appearance first instead of our personalities?
Unfortunately, generalizing and stereotyping are genetic. It allows for quick assessment of a situation. A person who looks angry usually is. A person who looks annoyed usually is. A person who looks unfit usually doesn’t work out. There are many exceptions and so people have to do their best to not generalized and stereotype, but even the best of use do it. It does cause inconvenience to society, but I suspect without it there would be greater issues.Imagine what would happen if you went up to someone crying, but didn’t think they were sad. Or went up to someone who was annoyed and in a bad mood and started chatting about the weather. Another example would be trying to speak in English with a Mexican. It’s more likely they know Spanish than English. While stereotyping, it saves time on average to assume based on appearance. This does cause misunderstanding from time to time though.
Why are emo, goth, and rocker people always rejected by society?
Emo is awesome so is goth. People are not use to new ideas. The training todays society has made people think that this is not normal. The sad thing there is always people who are going to look at you and say slut, whore, or goth. No one is accepting. Everyone has flaws. In humans it is we are not very oepn to new ideas. In a few years, nerds will be respected bc of the with the creations. In few years, gay marriages will be accepting. Things will start changing. Personally, nerds are amazingg. My bf is a nerdd. :) People cannot accept anything different. They will but never at first usually. It is always hard to stop and first impression. The mind is so set to think well this type of person is like this.No matter how hard you try you always have that first impression. Soon, societys minds will start opening with all these new ideas.If you can accept without, you have accomplished an art.
Why do overweight people think it's OK to insult thin women and call them "anorexic"?
Some overweight people are insecure about their appearance. I'm 5'7 and 215. I am comfy with that and with people who are really skinny. (My husband for instance is 5'8 and 115) I admit that in the past I have been threatened by people who can maintain that touted ultra-mod slim look and even might have dropped the word anorexic in reference to them. Your existence reminds big girls that its possible to be thin and be alive. That hurts sometimes. I know some days I feel like a hippo and bumping into someone who's slender makes me feel even bigger. Somedays, however I feel drop dead gorgeous and you and others like you remind me I can weigh 100 lbs more than my husband...and still have a husband. I apologize on behalf of big, threatened girls everywhere. It doesn't make it better, but don't hate all of us. I think its great your slender and you are probably very pretty. (Personally I think you should be a role model to those big girls. Weight is not healthy. Everyone knows that. Rather than get offended, I really think it should motivate them to look a little more like you.)
