Unattractive men make 9% less than average men. However attractive men earn 5% more than average men.

However the penalty for being unattractive as a women is only 5% while the attractiveness bonus is only 4%.


Attractive men earn 15% more than unattractive man. However attractive women only earn 9% more compared with unattractive women.



Let's say two men earn 100,000 dollars yearly. The attractive one earns 15,000 more dollars which doesn't sound like a lot, but assuming both work for 40 years and accumulate raises at their careers, the handsome man can earn over one million dollars more than the ugly one in his lifetime.

This is far and away the biggest lie that was ever sold by society, that women's attractiveness is more important than men's. In reality men get crippled by being unattractive a lot more than women, be it career or dating opportunities. Hell I've seen very ugly women with kids, but you rarely see unattractive men with kids. In reality the only quality that matters for men is how physically attractive you are that determines your quality of life.
