Sexism and racism are nothing compared to what ugly people face

Fact. The discrimination that ugly people face is far, far worse than racism or sexism.

If you are average or good looking (most people); then you have social acceptance. Being average/good looking means that you will have social acceptance, whereas ugly people are always given the short end of the stick.

It makes me sick when people think that average/good looking people have problems. This is why I don't take Feminism seriously; the only women who face problems in society are the ugly ones. Their problems are very, very minor in contrast to the discrimination that ugly people face.

A rich ugly person will be more discriminated against than a poorer good looking person.

It's not a troll. I'm tired of seeing Feminists complain about the issues that average-good looking women face.

None of it compares to the bullying that ugly people face. Fact.
While I don't agree with some of what you wrote, tis' an injustice that people face vastly different personal and professional opportunities because of their genes (which they have without merit).

how can you even define someone as ugly? beauty is subjective, gender and race and sexuality etc are not.

if by "ugly" you mean "I can't get laid" then that's your freaking problem not anyone else's. shut up and stop pretending you're being oppressed.

Beauty is subjective. Attractiveness isn't. You can tell when someone is unattractive or just plain butt ugly.

If you are physically unattractive, you are oppressed, regardless of race or gender.

This is silly. A lot of beauty is objective. 1/10s get treated like utter **** and they have no control over most of their physical features.

Good looking people don't face problems that are worthwhile. Tired of seeing model-like women talking about oppression as if they face it. Disgusting.
then imagine being an ugly black woman

but you can only be a 1/10 in someone's eyes, not everyone sees you like that. also you can change your body so thats BS.

Define a 1/10, go on.

You are living in denial. Ugly can easily be objective; someone who is acne-ridden, anorexic and balding will definitely be ugly. Or on the other end of the spectrum, fat, long hair and bad teeth = ugly. It's not subjective.

Can understand this, when I was younger I used to be a huge fan of transformers but I found Megan Fox Ugly. Every guy in my school liked her.
OP, you haven't actually said what your problems are you're just baiting us. What discrimination issues do ugly people face?

Wanna know this too.

there's always someone out there who will like what you've got
and there's no such thing as "ugly people" - beauty is in the eye of the beholder
there's people who have been in acid attacks and had their entire face melt off but they still found someone who loves them for who they are

also it's not all genetics - you could improve your physique, that makes you more attractive
you could treat bad skin, also makes you more attractive
take care of your hygiene - if someone was hot but stank like a dumpster then i wouldn't talk to them twice tbh - smelling good is attractive
changing up your hair might bring out your best facial features
the way you carry yourself and the way you speak to others also can make you very attractive
make up is there to enhance your beautiful features if you really want to but you can make do without it

and if you REALLY REALLY want - there's always plastic surgery as an option

Hate and disdain from society; far less likely to be accepted into social groups and associated with negative qualities. That's to name a few.

It's time we stop pretending good looking/average people face problems. Racism and sexism are only serious issues when the victims are ugly.
