"Ugly parents are less attentive to offspring"

This is actually a root cause as Reed Foxx always said, Follow an ugly child home and what do you find? Ugly parents!"

There is no doubt that handsome people do better in life, and, in my view, have better genes due to their being more attractive to the more attractive mates. Looks imply social class and I think they work that way too, although makeup goes a long way, at least for women, guys are on their own.

All true, but have you noticed that the daughters of the "super rich" are usually homely...think of poor Eleanor Roosevelt, or for that matter Paris Hilton....
