We always build our first impressions about people way before waiting for their actual first impression, or even worse, we falsify it based on social dogmas carved in our mind. Below are some stereotypes we untruthfully hold of extremely good looking people:

1) Whatever they say is .. always .. attractive and charming.200 (1)

Whatever they’re talking about, whether it’s his day at the gym or her day taking a tan on the beach, our subconscious mind will instantly magnify the importance of what they’re saying as if we’re listening to Newton explaining his theory.

2) They’re full of themselves.

We assume that he or she are the most interactive, sociable yet deep person in the group. Truth is, we stereotype them and that shouldn’t be the case.

Some good looking guys can be categorized as pathetic the moment they open their mouths, because of irrelevant criticism or reflections on a serious topic. On the other hand, you friendzone a girl because the first thing she talked about was her latest Gucci handbag which she just purchased or how bored she is with her life because she hasn’t traveled abroad in a long time. While many like to believe that confidence is confined to good looks, gleaming hair and a buff body, there’s actually much more to it than that. You can only look completely confident when you are likable, interesting and fun to be around. Because they’re around the other gender quite a lot, we tend to believe they’re too full of themselves. They could be very humble, but we just won’t easily assume that. Most importantly, give people a chance and don’t judge a book by its cover.

3) Who they must be dating.

We’ll always think the guy must be dating Scarlett Johansson, and the girl is waiting for her Johny Depp. And if we see average looking partners, we’ll just assume, okay, that person must have something very very valuable to offer.

 

4) They’re cold-hearted jerks/witches

Without indulging ourselves in their current/past love-lives, we’re just going to instantly assume that they’re manipulative, self-absorbed people who play with the emotions of others for their own narcissistic personal gains, because yes, we’ve already assumed they’re walking narcissists.

 

5) Whatever they say, will still sound  funny and giphycool. 

If they tell you they play video games, we’ll think it’s cool, if they’re telling a story, we’ll laugh, even if it’s not really funny.

 

6) They play a certain role in social life.

We assume those types are players, party-goers and are just living the ultimate meaning of a cool life, for being the animals extroverts that we assume they are. If they tell you they do not have many friends or do not go out a lot, we’re just going to think they have ulterior motives.

The problem is not about good looking people; it’s about how we portray them in our minds. In reality, the real problem is how we judge others based on our predetermined expectations or social dogmas.
