You guys think that good looking people are more succesful at dating? I think so, because looks determine how other people respond to you largely. Self-image (which is significantly shaped by others) determines how you interact with other people (esp. people of the opposite sex). For you X-Files fans, remember this dialogue between Mulder and Scully?:
Mulder: "Hey Scully, if you could be somebody else for a day, who would it be?"
Scully: "Hopefully myself."
Mulder: "That's so boring... I mean wouldn't you even be tempted to try out someone else's existence for a day? Live your life as somebody else?"
Scully: "Looking like someone else, Mulder, and being someone else are completely different things."
Mulder: "Well, maybe it's not. I mean everybody else around you would treat you like you were somebody else. I mean, ultimately, maybe it's other people's reactions to us that makes us who we are."
(From: "Small Potatoes" [Season 4/Episode 20]).
Anyone disagree with this?
