There are a million advantages being attractive gets you—more jobs, better pay, better service in any given store. Tack this to the list—apparently, being attractive can substitute for a psychology degree. It totally legitimates any advice you have to give. Shit—if this is the case, why are so many of my professors balding white guys? So that’s why America’s Top Model gets better ratings than CSPAN—we want to learn from truly reliable sources.
But the site makes sense, right? Don’t good looking women go on more dates? They must know what they’re talking about—practice makes perfect.
I’ll take a cue from Carrie Bradshaw, Sarah Jessica Parker’s character from Sex and the City—“Men who are too good looking are never good in bed because they never had to be.” I don’t mean to imply that good looking people are bad at dating, but c’mon. Good looks do not an education make. My advice if you’re desperate to figure out the complicated inner workings of woman-kind, ask your mother!
