Sometimes I wish I could have a deformity because then at least people might have empathy

You see plenty of people online who have been in accidents or were born with certain deformities and 99% of the time the internet will rally behind them. People in public will try not to judge them (at least not to their face) and everyone will act kind because they understand that something happened to those folks and they can't help it.

But what about naturally ugly people? Our choice wasn't there either, but neither is the compassion that everyone supposedly preaches online. Instead we get belittled, laughed at and called weirdos.

Sorry if this sounds messed up. I'm not trying to trivialize the experiences of people who have dealt with serious accidents or birth defects. I just hate the stark difference in the way society treats ugly people who also didn't have a say in the matter.

Attractive people will never understand how bad it is having your entire life determined by a genetic lottery

Your entire life is predetermined by the way you look. Everyone will judge you by your face even though you have practically no control over it.

Ugly guys get told to go to the gym. Ugly girls get told to wear makeup.

We've pretty much all tried something along those lines, and guess what. None of it really make a difference. At least not for most of us. Cause in the end there's nothing you can do that will actually alter the shape of your bone structure or facial features. Once you're at a certain point of ugly there's nothing you can do to hide it. You just have to accept the fact that people will either ignore you or punk you for your appearance.

But attractive people? Nah. Sure, they were part of that same lottery. But the difference is THEY WON. Everyone around them will treat them nicer by default. Everyone will listen to them even if they have the worst, most arrogant personalities in the world. They have seemingly endless options for dating because there's nobody that won't notice them the way us uglies aren't noticed.

It's like someone winning the powerball and then telling a broke person that hard work equals a good life. I know it's technically not an attractive person's fault for not knowing what it's like, but please. If you don't understand at least stop pretending to.
