Us uglies are living in the wrong era. Before film, photography, video infected our view of image and in the days of community, not the individual, people were judged on their worth to the community and not on how they looked. Now it is instant judgement, style over substance, perceived worth instead of actual worth.
Console yourself to some extent that as you get older looks kind of even out. I console myself that had I a string of ex- girfriends and ex- wives and kids spending money for me I wouldn't now have 2 paid for houses and a substantial bank balance. Bitter? nah just a realist.
