Subject: Does our personality affect our level of attractiveness
To: "M. NajimudeeN. Bsc-INDIA" <aydnajimudeen@gmail.com>
Hi M. NajimudeeN. Bsc-INDIA,
How are you today??
Studies have shown that attractiveness perception changes when we get
to know a person better.
Do you remember how your perception of attractiveness of people
changed during high school or college days? I am sure you found some
people attractive after spending more time with them even though you
didn't find them attractive during your first encounter with them.
A study has shown that people start to see others differently when
they discover some of their personality traits. (see also
Attractiveness perception psychology)
When was the last time you saw a movie where the hero wasn't that
attractive? do you remember how you felt like when you first saw that
movie hero? now try to recall your feelings towards him at the end of
the movie and you will discover that you have changed your opinion
about his attractiveness completely. (see also Why do we find people
attractive)
If watching a person do good things for 2 hours can change the
attractiveness perception then what can a six month friendship with a
person do?
Certainly if during that period the person displayed desirable traits
then he will appear much more physically attractive!
Attractiveness standards and exceptions
We all have certain standards that we use to asses people's
attractiveness but when we spend time with someone with desirable
traits we start to sacrifice some of these standards.
Its as if our subconscious minds replace some of the physical traits
of that person with some of his good personality traits.
It was also found that people could change their attractiveness
perception few seconds after a person starts talking! Sometimes the
first impression a person forms of another gets changed as soon as the
the later opens his mouth. (see First impression psychology)
Another study has found that a simple action such as a friendly smile
can affect the attractiveness perception of people. If a smile does so
then what can a good trait such as kindness do??
You still have a good chance
You don't have to look like movie heroes to leave a good impression
because just as you saw people can see you differently based on your
actions and behaviour.
While these facts are applicable to both men and women it was found
that a woman is more likely to change her perception of attractiveness
of a man after he displays great personality traits.
In my previous article attractiveness perception psychology i said
that physcial looks is only one item in the attraction puzzle. The
more you know about this attraction puzzle the more you will be able
to take advantage of such facts and the more attractive you will
appear to be.
Can't wait till the next lesson?
