[wegradiert]

Und das was mich so müde macht, ist die Blindheit der Menschheit.

Jeder klagt über das was er nicht hat , keiner sieht - außer auf das Display seines Smartphones, was ihm zeigt wie er in diese Gesellschaft passt.

Und das was mich so krank macht, ist der wachsende Hass auf die Menschheit, weil niemand schätzt was er hat.

Keine Akzeptanz für das, was nicht so ist wie es sein soll - für das, was irgendwie anders ist.

Und ich frag‘ mich, wieso jeder in die selbe Jacke passen muss, wo Individualität doch das ist - für was man heutzutage lebt.

Mein Herz bebt und schlägt lauter als es sollte, denn mein einziger Wunsch ist - das die kleinen, weniger ersichtlichen Dinge endlich wieder etwas bedeuten.

Und das was mich so leise macht, ist die Ignoranz die zeigt, dass Loyalität und Treue keinen Platz mehr hat.

Und das keiner mehr hört, für was sein Herz eigentlich schlägt. Denn jeder ist taub für das was ihm zeigt, wie das Leben anders geht.

Und das was mich so kalt macht, sind die Menschen die mir zeigen, dass Vertrauen nichts wert ist in einer Welt völliger Diskrepanz.

Und ich laufe und laufe, egal wie weit der Weg - ich will alles , aber niemals so werden wie ihr. Denn ich kann sehen und hören , was bedeutet ich bin weder taub noch blind.

More Than Meets The Eye

In today’s society, physical attractiveness is the most noticeable and most easily reachable trait of a person. Further, physical attractiveness is so important and its influence is so persistent in the lives of almost every person especially in today’s norms (Patzer 1985). In Myers 10th edition Social Psychology book, physical attractiveness stereotype is defined as the presumption that physical attractive people possess desirable traits: What is beautiful is good. We assume that physically attractive individuals posses certain desirable traits. We think that they are happier, sexually warmer, and more outgoing, intelligent, and successful. Even when still young, we learn the stereotype a bit early by means of watching fairytales in such way the attractive characters are good and kind contrary from the unattractive characters which are most of the times cruel and wicked (Myers 2009). According to Dion et al. (1972) stereotyping based on physical attractiveness does happen; physically attractive people were said as having more desirable personalities and were expected to have greater personal success on most of life’s aspects.

In today’s society, many men and women are always conscious with how they look. It’s a general accepted truth that people who are conventionally physically attractive have an advantage. Because they’re good looking, they’re also seen as being more trustworthy, confident and smarter – and all other desirable traits which are very attractive to have. That being said, attractive looking individuals tend to have attractive girlfriends/boyfriends or husband/wife – of course they also attract attractive looking people like themselves. According to Dion et al. (1972) physically attractive people have advantages in the dating market. Yes, “love at first sight” could be possible but your attraction to that person will falter as time goes by. Eastwick and Hunt (2014) stated that only very few individuals between 6% - 11% fall inlove at first sight.

There are many such situations where you will be judged by your physical appearance, especially in today’s society, and you will not be able to do anything about it. Many times you won't even get a chance to speak up, your physical appearance will have to do all the striking and impressing thing. Humans are inclined to judge others by their physical appearance. If a person's hair is not combed properly or his clothes are dishevelled, or he slumps all the time, these are pretty fair indications of how that person feels about himself and these aspects of that person's appearance provide some insight into that person's traits. Or if a person goes to school/work with dark bags under his eyes or looking rather rugged, one would draw to conclusion that that person lacks desirable traits. To sustain, Dion et al. (1972) stated that physical attractiveness did influence how others evaluate others – with attractive individuals obtaining more flattering evaluations. Thus, this signifies on the assumption that physically attractive people are superior to others on many other traits, such as intelligence and overall personality (Eagly et al. 1991).

In the past decades, physical attractiveness is one of hottest issue. Arguments across the globe are debating whether physically attractive people are really what they appear to be – beautiful on the outside as well as the inside. According to Eastwick and Hunt (2014) in their study, after 3 months, uniqueness dominated for all desirable qualities such as attractiveness dropped as their participants get to know each other over time. Getting to know someone over time makes them more attractive, you just don’t have to deduce their potentials right away.     There’s this saying “Don’t judge a book by its cover”. And looks can be deceiving as well. There are those attractive people that possessed horrible character and traits, they look ravishing on the outside but when they start talking and interacting their looks gets fainter because of their traits. Seeing a fine looking person, your immediate mechanism is that he is responsible and well-mannered when in fact when you interact with him you just got deceived by his superficial looks, he is not that well-mannered after all, he’s just one of those conceited prick that took advantage of their physical attractiveness. And there are those rather not that attractive looking but possessed a down-to-earth trait in them. Seeing an unappealing individual, your abrupt reaction is to get away from him because he might rob you or hurt you when in reality he has the kindest heart. He doesn’t take advantage of his looks because he acknowledges that he doesn’t have any and yet he doesn’t take advantage of his character because doing so would be against his principles. Physical appearance is always the first thing we notice especially when we’re dealing with strangers but every so often people are not what they seem to be. According to Berscheid and Walster (1972) physical appearance is a side-line and phony characteristic with little influence on our lives. Most people are hypocrites – saying that showing prejudice between the attractive and those that are not blessed with good looks is unfair but without even realizing it they’re doing it shamelessly, they just don’t want to acknowledge their deeds. A study shows that discriminating such could lead in declining the victim’s self-esteem. As said, most of the time the attractive and the not are perceive differently. The prejudice act affects the unattractive immensely because the way the attractive is treated versus the not so attractive shapes the way they think about themselves and as a result, the kind of people they become (Hatfield and Sprecher 1986).        

Not all physically attractive people acquire desirable traits and not all physically unattractive people lack desirable traits. Physical attractiveness changes rather significantly over time.  While being stunningly good looking helps with initial impressions, its value levels off very quickly and becomes much less important when the individual lacks morals and principles. Patzer (2006) stated that physical attractiveness might look skin-deep as an outside aspect of a person’s appearance but looks can be deceiving. Character is the key. Physical features certainly play a part but it’s not the focal aspect of an individual. Physical attractiveness without character is dull. You maybe get attention but you will never keep that attention (de Bono 2004). t al. 1991).

This discriminating phenomenon is very rampant especially in today’s society – they’re all about superficial looks. It’s effortless for people to assume without even getting acquainted first. In all ages and in all walks of life, attractive people are judged more favorably, treated better, and are cut more slack. Isn’t that a discriminating notion? What about those that are not blessed with good looks? Don’t they acquire desirable traits as well? But the big question is, is beauty really skin-deep or does an attractive face really reflects essential desirable traits?Being attractive is just another factor for being beautiful – attractive alone does not make you utterly beautiful. Literally it does, but as a whole being it doesn’t. It’s just a superficial thing. Being judged by your looks especially in the world we’re living today is just normal. This bias belief lingers in our society a whole lot longer than we imagined. No matter how one’s appearance seems to be like, if that person acquires character that makes him decent, then that person is indeed beautiful inside and out. Hatfield and Sprecher (1986) affirmed that what is beautiful is good but what is good is beautiful as well. Real beauty comes from within, a beautiful face is just an added bonus. Physical attractiveness can be observed as a status characteristic along side with intelligence, charm, humor and other socially valued characteristics (Kalick 1988). Anyone can be beautiful in their own extraordinary way. You don’t have to look attractive in order for people to establish that you acquire desirable traits. 

“Physical attractiveness is no indicator of an individual's beauty.” - Richelle E. Goodrich

I see trees of green, red roses too I see them bloom for me and you And I think to myself what a wonderful world I see skies of blue and clouds of white The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night And I think to myself what a wonderful world The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky Are also on the faces of people going by I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do...Louis Armstrong. #blackandwhite #homeless #lossoflife #wastingaway #bars #societykills #societyills #centralcity #electricavenue #nola #neworleans #everythingiseverything #clothesonmyback #streetphotography #life #people #urban #wonderfulworld #goodnight (at Central City, New Orleans)
