Study (N=11K;20 years) finds attractive men more likely to attain better jobs & earn more than similarly attractive women. Attractive women had a slight advantage over unattractive women but men saw greatest benefits. For women being attractive is incompatible with stereotypes of leaders. “Women are held to a specific standard of attractiveness & are often punished when they fail to uphold that standard, but then they’re punished when they do—it’s a lose-lose situation.”

    I think there’s more rigorous studies but done on smaller numbers of participants, but sci-hub’s captchas are broken today so that’s where that ends.

    I know of other data blog posts going in the same general vibe from tinder hinge etc but no serious study has asked >1000 people to “rate” other people
