I think appearances are important to some extent. But, it is not about being pretty but being well-kempt and neat about one's appearance. I think pretty women have an easier time in certain situations but it is not an end-all-be-all for every situation. I am considered attractive for my age and am grateful for looking young. But, I don't think it necessarily has been easier given the fact I was abused by my family and have a lot of emotional garbage. I also have an illness and disability. But, people are nicer to me when I look attractive - ie at stores, restaurants, for jobs- appearances do matter. However, when people start seeing me as a person, then what matters most are my abilities and personality. I think appearances may open doors to some extent. But, at the same time, people think I'm vapid and superficial. I am not. So, it is a two-way street, if people consider you attractive, they don't think you have much substance while if you are unattractive to others, some people may not be nice to you initially. I have not always been attractive all of my life so know when people treat me differently based on my appearance. I think attractiveness again is not about being pretty but being neat and well-kempt in one's appearance. Of course, if you are also great looking then it is an added bonus but it will not define your life's worth. People will see you beyond your appearances eventually then judge you based on your value- abilities and character.
