[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is that the super attractive women who do find it a hindrance have something else going on that explains why they have a difficult time connecting with other people.  But it's easier to blame their issues on how attractive they are.

Also, if women think it's rough being so attractive - try being fat.  It's like you're invisible.[/quote]

That's not always true. I've recently been involved in a situation where an "okay-looking, but clearly insecure about her looks" colleague purposefully shut down some opportunities for two young, very attractive women for the sole reason that they were younger and more attractive than her. Before it happened, I knew she would do it, and why, but I wasn't in a position to stop it. Her only contact with these women was via their photos, by the way - they didn't do anything to bring this on themselves.

In my field I hear quite a lot of stories about women who are targeted because of their looks. In a surprising number of cases, the targets are really not in any way to blame. [/quote]
