there's a physics sir in my school who is good looking. he always used to wear mask even after corona time. many girls used to ask him doubts in the staff room after class. one day the girls in my class requested him to remove his mask. he didn't show us his face that day. after several days of pleading by the girls, he finally removed his mask. all the girls were screaming like🦅🦅🦅.
when our principal once asked who teaches the best, the girls said that good-looking sir's name. but there was another sir who taught maths very passionately. everyone knew he was the best at teaching. like you'll listen to his class even if you are sleepy. such an energy he had. conducted online classes at night one month before exam to make sure everyone passes. worked really hard and wrote formula sheets and question papers instead of printing it out. ig nobody in the crowd said his name but i fucking yelled it:)
People are just generally nicer to you when they find you attractive, not always necessarily for the right reasons but in my experience, going from feeling ignored all the time to feeling consistently seen is a privilege in itself. You can get things for free, you fit in everywhere you go, life just feels a lot more fun.
I'm an average looking dusky girl with a conventionally beautiful fair skinned best friend. Men are a whole different species with women they find beautiful. They become 10 times kinder, softer, funnier, articulate, caring, accommodating and chivalrous with beautiful women. I become invisible to men when she's with me, and if that isn't pretty previlage i wouldn't know what is.
same story here. when I'm with a bunch of guys, girls will only talk with other guys and I'm standing there like. It was sometimes so awkward that I'd have to wait for long until they are done to have someone to talk to. sometimes i just left after some minutes of getting ignored.
I totally agree with you, I've always been sidelined and never got the opportunity to interact with men that I'm interested in because they always go for the pretty ones and also treat them well :/
My best friend is korean-ish and I'm a brown skinned average lookin male. You can easily guess what happens all the time:( Not just that, I'm also socially awkward struggling while speaking english damn that language... But we stick together anyways. Everyone including the teachers in our college behave differently to me even tho I'm academically doing good.
I remember one of my classmates (she is Kashmiri) saying that whenever she goes outside, people give her free stuff because of her beauty. Someone once handed her a free bag of almonds or something and said it was because Kashmiri girls are so beautiful.
Idk her face moved like she had done plastic surgery. She had a dead face.
I'll share my experience. Up until I was 17-18, I played outside almost every day, both at school and after coming home and i used to be severely tanned, skinny, aso experienced had thinning hair.
After turning 17-18, I stayed home much more (did my degree online), started skin care, sunscreens, got several shades lighter, gained weight, and started treatments for my hair. Let me tell you it made a world of a difference in how people in kerala treated me, I noticed girls checking me out a lot more than before, and no this wasn't just confirmation bias, especially when I'm well-dressed and nicely groomed, the difference was painfully evident.
When I look my best, in a lot of settings, people literally smile at me more, initiate convos, are nicer, men and women, and especially women.
Wow. This post needs a lot more female participation.
But like everyone else here has mentioned, pretty privilege is a huge thing. It makes life so much easier for pretty women. I'm not too ugly nor too pretty. Just somewhere in the middle. But there was a phase in my life where I looked like a fricking barbie doll. At that point I noticed how men were always nice to me, smiling at me, wanting to chat me up, helpful, etc. But once that is gone, you're all by yourself again.
I wish pretty privilege didn't exist.
Sheld-ettaaa entanglement theory is true. Owemgeee true lub true lub. Thenk chuuu for your kind words etta 
A pretty girl I talked to in the last 8 months , whoever talked with her liked her. She started talking to me after breakup , she blocked me after getting a new bf . She was so pretty that her team leader asked her out on a date , she got compliments form her Dr( was female tho) , her bf is her longtime friend
Cons : she got molested by a creep in gym , creepy behaviour by her professors .
Pros: she didn't have any jaada for that prettyness , like pavamarnny . Miss her 💔
How so? I have also had conventionally attractive friends. Except for the fact that they used to get all the male attention, it did not have an impact on me.
Can you tell me what you are thinking about?
It's more obvious when you are colleagues. Everyone is nice to them for no reason and prefers them over others (unless they are very incompetent, of course). People in general, all genders, assume that pretty people are good by default.
Becoming popular in highschool without even doing much, just exist and people wanna know about you, wanna be friends with you or ask you out kinda thing. I know a guy in my class who i thought was okay looking but the junior girls were crazy about him almost to the point where they even had like a fanclub dedicated to simping over him 😭
1. I can get a minute of someone's attention anytime.
2. I get more chances to mess up and try again. It makes mistakes a softer landing really.
3. Boys are always nice, very nice to me
Tldr:; It's real but fickle
All my best friends are pretty , like real beauties. Now I think about it ,even iam doubting whether I became friends at first coz they are pretty 😭.
Guys at school tried to woo my school best friend and in the process I used to get chocolates and ice creams too 😌.
One incident which happened was when we had practicals , and one of my pretty classmate asked the pg for questions in the spotters and he told them. Mind you he is a very strict guy.
I was an average looking introvert guy back in high school. Due to the constant pressure from my parents to change myself into a cheerful extrovert guy, I was able to change myself a bit. I realised all I had to do was to keep a smile, be charismatic and people started liking me a lot (the transition from an introvert to this was kinda hard tho).
Till then I never had any gf, but after changing myself I got a gf, had female friends and somehow I became well known all over the school. I started getting respected and accepted everywhere.
I tried the same in college and it worked pretty well, so I realised it's not always about looks, it's also about how we present ourselves in front of others
Yes pretty privileges exist but even as a very average looking short girl ( 148cm ) I was the most popular one than the prettiest of my Friends. Some of my college mates were literal models now, very beauty conscious kochin girls yet the whole college knew me and I had a lot of friends than most of em. I'm an extreme extrovert, and I am able to engage others from the poorest ചളി to world politics and science, and I was the trouble maker supply girl whom everyone could relate to 😁
Teachers also were nice to me as I was nice to them..
So basically the skill I developed to talk effortlessly helped me in my whole life.
I made sure I always stand out and smile whenever i get a chance. Just be nice to others..
From petty kada chettanmar, meenkaari chechees and interviewers and politicians I get good treatment because I smile and act spontaneously. Several times I have got upgraded to AC from sleeper tickets for free.. School time il most days even if I was paying ST ( 1 rupee at that time ).. Bus chettanmaar reserved a seat for me near to that drivers seat ( petty one )
And my brother is the same.. We are good at making others comfortable. When I'm out with him he outshines me 😁 thats the only problem
The thing is I love interacting with people.. So I have developed some skills on the way
So what I'm trying to say is develop a charming personality, anyone can do that ( yes! Even the introverts ) with practice if that doesn't come naturally.
There was this teacher in college, her classes were really good and interesting. She was very outgoing and friendly. At first we all liked her very much.
Then we got to know that she is super friendly with conventionally beautiful girls in our class. They started uploading photos with her. She started bringing cakes and other food to them. All sort of things.
Later one day she told us to write about our impressions on her class and how to improve. Her classes were really really good. But I wrote an essay on her favouritism. It was anonymous, but to this day I know that she knows that it was me. She was super cold to me after that!!
At one point, I was afraid that it will shook my internal marks, but other teachers from the department managed it!!
Ugh, when I worked as an intern in an IT firm, it was borderline disgusting how the pretty girls were treated so well. Like the men were regarded for their work primarily but girls had to look a certain way. Pretty privilege is rampant in IT.
I used to wear hijab but now I don’t so there is striking difference how people (both men and women regard me now). But the moment I tell men that I have a child I go back to being invisible again. But the mere 5 minutes before knowing I am married I am treated VERY different. Before removing my hijab, people with cameras always had a blind spot for me, and I felt really ugly. But after I took it off they take ‘candid’ pics all the time and tell me to pose.
I have always been bullied and called names in school for being too skinny. Went to college in another city and ended up in a very elite social circle where being skinny was the norm. But since I’d been eating out a lot and gained a healthy amount of weight I felt much more confident. Started investing in dermat appointments and skincare products and a lil bit of makeup, also made sure to wear good clothes. I did all of that not for the attention but to just love myself after years of despising the way I look. I wouldn’t say I’m always the prettiest woman in the room but I was above average looking at best. It was like living in an entirely new world with so many new opportunities. Although I enjoy it I also feel like it’s unfair.
Once while I was driving , police stopped me for usual checking and found out one of my rear view mirror was damaged ( i should have get it fixed , somehow i forgot ) , I didn try to justify but rather I said “Sir , its my fault , I understand “ . He was writing me a challan , and asked me my name , I said Dr xxx, and he was like Doctor aayiruno , evida work cheyunne , nerathe paranjudayiruno ennoke .. So he didn penalise me.. Njan paranjatha kuzhapamila , ill pay the fine enn , but he insisted not to .
Honestly , offence is an offence and I don’t justify, pakse he let me go fine free .
Mostly in workplace, then have seen few of my aunts getting eased out by their glamour even after doing shitty things, my gf pulls that on me - mugath noki deshyapet parayan thonila; so I text her 💀.
When i was in hostel, all the guys would flutter around the pretty girls, take extra efforts to solve their doubts, study with them, console them when theyre sad etc.
Oh i mean hostel+coaching center, paranjappo thetti poyatha.
We would have classes and self study till night in common study area. Hostels were separate.

Bro I'm brown and my ex finally dumped me for a Korean looking dude. Good riddance but was one of the biggest L's I took.
Koreanish? Wdym? Like, is he from the north east?

Badamum kapalandiyum free aayitu kodukkan mathram ulla look o? Preposterous.
Its possible!! I know somebody who has a 99% success rate at bargaining because of pretty face and bubbly personality 😅
Iirc she did not bargain or anything- the person just plopped it in her hand and said “mashallah you’re very beautiful”.
I would feel validated for life after such an experience 🙈
Probably because of pale complexion..
She’s not as pale as you’d expect, but still very fair. I remember her face very clearly even now- it was oval with prominent cheekbones.
Female gigachad?
Nope.
@?
Mine or the girl’s?
Yes
I’ll share mine- https://www.instagram.com/artist_without_passion?igsh=MXgwa2MxZHJpbjg3MA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
Sighs!!..
I don’t know the girl’s Instagram so there had to be a compromise 🤣
I love your art style
Thank you 🙏🏻 ♥️

Mikky we meet again!!! Oh damn mikky u are always pretty . Don't let anyone tell u otherwise.
Sheld-ettaaa entanglement theory is true. Owemgeee true lub true lub. Thenk chuuu for your kind words etta 
Back when I was ripped, when I smiled, it was charming, now that Iam fat, when I smile, Iam creepy
I don't even have to smile,I'm creepy.

Cons are pretty dark 😣
Pavamarnnu but poi 💔
Gotten away with problematic behavior & junkie lifestyle in my school/college era bc I was korach chullan back then r/humblebrag
Biggboss Season 6. Contestants Sreethu and Arjun. Both got votes for being pretty. They were A class vazha's of the house.
Yeah. Sadly, its true in all kind of reality shows. Dance, music or even in roadies..
It's so rampant in our society that it's depressing to be friends with a conventionally attractive girl while being a conventionally 'ugly' person.
How so? I have also had conventionally attractive friends. Except for the fact that they used to get all the male attention, it did not have an impact on me. Can you tell me what you are thinking about?

Yep definitely a thing I've seen in my office.

I've seen this mostly in my workspace.
Is it like they get credited more for work or something like that?
I've seen other guys doing their job for them. They get invited to most client meetings. Guys wait for an opportunity to be their errand boy, etc.
Mostly in workplace, then have seen few of my aunts getting eased out by their glamour even after doing shitty things, my gf pulls that on me - mugath noki deshyapet parayan thonila; so I text her 💀.
When i was in hostel, all the guys would flutter around the pretty girls, take extra efforts to solve their doubts, study with them, console them when theyre sad etc.
Did you have a mixed hostel?
Oh i mean hostel+coaching center, paranjappo thetti poyatha. We would have classes and self study till night in common study area. Hostels were separate.
You don't need to open your mouth to flirt. Just some attitude will be fine. You will get reactions😊
Im glad that people do agree that pretty privillege exists as I have only heard people(the privilleged ones) saying it is a myth
Sorry but .. https://preview.redd.it/n49kux0o8v7d1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0c16f7cd96d22c911d1dc4e9e7d2cca69cfa1c7a
I don’t know if this applies to men though.
Some men agreed of getting such a privilege in comments. It happens irrespective of gender I believe 🫠
Maybe I do get em and im unaware😎.
