Why does society treat people they consider unattractive poorly? Are these social hostilities, dejections, prejudices & discrimination causing unattractive people to flock to lookmaxxing communities? (lemmy.world)

Heuristics. You can't get to know every single person you see, so you make some judgement calls based on the information you have access to, to determine if it's someone you feel is safe and worth interacting with

    Heuristics is a good device but it doesn't work with lookism. For example - Baldness isn't a conclusive evidence for a person to be considered unsafe or ill natured. We can't determine everyone's nature by just their looks. "Looks can be deceiving" is a good phrase.
