A few common misconceptions Beauty is
only skin-deep. One’s physical assets and liabilities don’t count all that much
in a managerial career. A woman should always try to look her best.
Over the last 30 years, social scientists have conducted more than 1,000
studies of how we react to beautiful and not-so-beautiful people. The virtually
unanimous conclusion: Looks do matter, mom than most of us realize. The data
suggest, for example, that physically attractive individuals are more likely to
be treated well by their parents, sought out as friends, and pursued
romantically. With the possible exception of women seeking managerial jobs, they
are also more likely to be hired, paid well, and promoted.
Un-American, you say, unfair and extremely unbelievable Once again, the
scientists have caught us mouthing pieces while acting just the A. attractive women have tremendous potential impact on public jobs B. good-looking women always get the best of everything C. being attractive is not always an advantage for women D. attractive women do not do as well as unattractive women in managerial positions
