Why do people put 'good-looking' people on a pedestal?

Im puzzled. Girls have you ever see a guy who was really this good looking to completely distract you from what your doing and be all over him? I have never seen a girl respond this way to a guy, but of course I have seen some women who can have every man in the room drooling over them but I have never seen women behave this way towards men, maybe I have just never been around a super-attractive guy.

What's so bad about that? If men have their porn movies, why can't women have Twilight?

I can not imagine I man that good looking i doubt even the best looking celebrities girls talk about would get that sort of attention , well they would now because their famous but I mean they wouldn't get that sort of attention if they were not famous based on their looks at least I don't think so even models, i'm a guy so I don't know who's a really attractive dude. My point is I think your over estimating peoples reactions to your friend unless he actually is the most attractive man on the planet literally which I doubt.


The thing which is sort of cool about this world is that no matter what you look like there will always be some people who think your attractive for some guys it 99 percent of girls for others its 5 percent but as long as you are not a prick and maybe try a little bit to stay in decent shape there will be some people who like they way you look.

Generally when a guy is TOO good looking I think they probably are cocky or have **** personalities, it's bad to assume that but I do :s
I really don't know why some girl's do that it baffles me

To be honest, you aren't alone

I think the general opinion is a correlation between good looks and arrogance. Which is certainly true for some, but not for all.

As with most things, it comes down to prior experience in terms of the extent to which one makes that link.

Not all beautiful people are vain and arrogant, but I agree it often seems that way. A stunning-looking person will be used to people gazing at them admiringly, facilitating their every comfort and generally fawning on them, so it can be hard to not get vain about if for them. On the other hand, people's attitudes can be peculiar, I think very good-looking people get quite a lot of jealousy and bitterness directed at them in odd ways.

In my experience, it seems that women in particular don't actually have a great time if they're really good looking - they get a lot of undeserved negativity directed at them by other women, and a lot of men try to latch onto them and won't take a hint.

why are good-looking people put on a pedestal?
well, because they are good looking

the people who like looks will just see your friend and go for him.
Those who find personality to be more important wouldn't approach him, they would wait to get to know him first before making said move.
because randomers don't know his personality, the only ones approaching him will be after looks.
so it seems like he gets more attentention, but it isn't really him getting it. it's his looks.
they stick around for the personality though.
If he was an arse he would still be approached by just as many strangers, but they would ditch soon after.

just remember, to someone who loves you, even if the rest of the world thinks your as ugly as sin, they will still think you the most beautiful person on earth, and thats all what really matters when looks are concerned.

Not really because girls will overlook his bad personality in order to maintain having a 'trophy boyfriend' which is what's happening with my friend right now.

well, this is a particular breed of girl- you can get male versions as well- called superficial morons.

Good point but do you not think a lot of people are like this in this day and age?

I really wish this wasn't the case. All it does is give them an ego boost and everyone else unnecessary insecurities.
