Attractive women bosses are considered less truthful and trustworthy by both sexes, research has found.
In tests, hundreds of male and female participants said they thought a pretty female boss was less likely to be honest.
They were also considered more deserving of being fired than a less attractive counterpart.
Good looks are often thought to be advantageous in life, whether when it comes to getting served in shops or pubs or being more likely to succeed at a job interview, and even the likelihood you are found guilty in court.

Jealousy ... that green-eyed monster will destroy you.
I agree. They generally try to use their looks (and other techniques) to advance in the corporate/government world.
True enough, but I'll cut 'em some slack if they put out.
I got a swinging pair of that style that she might be interested in.
Oh. This isn’t perpetuating sexism at all. A college girl I know is thrilled to be working in an internship with women in a big investment banking firm after having had to quit the first job as the boss was hitting on her in texts

40 years in the corporate world, and I have stories!
Bull! I had to fight my whole career to be recognized for my brains, not my looks.
My looks didn’t get me anything in the workplace except chased by lecherous bosses; I left two jobs because of it.

Am I complaining that I was blessed with a pretty face and figure? No, because it was a blessing...but don’t presume a pretty blonde is dumb. That is a mistake many of my competitors made, much to their dismay.
