Looks and Intelligence

I think beautiful people get a bad rap sometimes. When the good looking people are single and available, sometimes they are not given the benefit of the doubt. When it comes to a good looking guy, women are quick to assume he is cocky, or arrogant just because he is good looking. This weekend my roommate met this really good looking guy and he asked for her phone number, but she didn't give it to him, and I asked why and she said "it's not like he was ever going to call me, he probably got so many other girls numbers too." I said to her "You don't know that, what if he was really just a nice guy and was interested in you, and just wanted your number!" Good looking women also get bad raps too, they often get labeled as crazy, or boring, some people might even question their intelligence level, like as if a very attractive female can't be smart! I think we are being unfair to the good looking individuals that walk our grounds. Why do you stereotype good looking people? Do we find ourselves thinking that the more attractive they are the less we take them seriously? Wouldn't we want a more attractive person to start a relationship with, or are we holding back because all they have going for them is their looks?
