I just understand, you cant appeal to people by rationality in the environmental x genetic cause (One of the most important discussions, a dicussion that cause wars all over history, but that nowadays disappeared.). You need to appeal to their emotions. Its the only way. People dont want the truth, they want to feel good about it.
In this post you can see the genius GM alekhine saying how a brilliant chess player is born, not made. Bobby Fischer had the same opinion. But when you go to the comments, people are saying: "He is wrong, its environmental. Everyone can be a genius with proper environment". They say that because they want to believe that they can as well be that person, or that they had the potential to be. They dont want to feel like they have "inferior genes".
THEN you DARE to say that beauty is environmental and that the modern face is melting, that EVERYONES face is DEFORMED. Do you know what these same people will say? "Nooo, beauty is genetic. You want everyone too look the same, everyone is diffffereenttt!!!!". Lol at that cope. Do you understand? When its something that can be changed (Like chess knowledge) people WANT to believe its environmental, but when is something that cannot be changed (Bone structure) People want to believe its genetic.
The truth is the one that probably most annoys people: Genetic give you traits that makes people different, and the environment can potentialize that to the maximum or not. The impact of genetics ends up being very very low if you compare someone with proper environment and the modern environment.
Instead of saying to people the truth (You are deformed and you will not excel at most things) say: The face is not genetic! You can change it! (Seems similar to something? yeah the mewing cope) and about what the person can do in life that its genetic and you need to find what you are good at S2.
Btw, in chess theres a guy called László Polgár, he believed that a genius was created, so he wrote a book and developed a system. He wrote to a woman the experiment he wanted to do and he found a wife that was available to try it out. They married and they had 3 daughters. He was obsessed and made all them study chess since they were born non stop everyday. He had the luck that they didnt end traumatized so the results showed. All three become good players, one of them, Judit Polgar, being one of the best womans in the game. So, did he proved his point? ABSOLUTELY NOT, its exactly the opposite. Even them having a very intelligent father and the most proper chess environment a kid has ever had, they werent the best players of all time. The biggest players of all time had a decent proper environment but they had the talent as well. He proved the opposite, how environment is extremly important but theres a genetic limit.
In faces this is different. Because we are talking about beauty. And theres a reason why everyone find certain traits attractive (High cheekbones etc.), because. they. are. a. sign. of. health. Everyone will look different because of the genetic (Ethnicity, and how some features look). But they all should look GOOD with the proper environment. ALL.
