It’s petty when you are not one of the ones impacted. Good for you, Lady. Too bad people are so superficial that anyone who is short, bald, or not attractive or thin should ever have to even think about such things. These only matter if the job requires looks (e.g., a model). Of course, human nature being what it is, sales, marketing and so many other jobs will always want to hire beautiful people.
I agree, it's deplorable. Too bad they're so aggressive, too. Served a purpose once, not so much lately, hmm?
Incidentally -- beside the point -- Carlo Ponti was short, bald, not attractive or thin. When he died, widow Sophia Loren said it would be unthinkable ever to love anyone else.
