Appearance is important to you ?

Lookism
 
Do you have any experience that judge the person only appearance or be judged only appearance?
Honestly I have experience both of them.
So I want to discuss about 'lookism' !
 
And I think about the question about lookism.
First, lookism includes fashion and hair too.
Do you have experience that when you go to store, the employee's attitude is different according to your clothes and hair style?
Here is the video about this.



In this video, there is one man and the women guess his job, income and index of fascination by only his appearance.
First, the man is wearing plain clothes and normal hair style.
The result is the women guess his job is the repairman in the factory or worker in restaurant. And they guess his income is very low and his index of fascination is 0 or 2(the perfect score is 10.).
But later, the same man is now wearing great suit and cool hair style.
The result is the women guess his job is the lawyer, doctor or worker in large company. And they guess his income is very high and his index of fascination is 8 to 10(the perfect score is 10.).
What do you think about this video ?
Do you think the hairstyle or clothes are important ?
 
Do you know even there are the words '패완얼’ and '헤완얼’ in Korea?
패완얼(패션의 완성은 얼굴) means the completion of clothes is face.
헤완얼(헤어의 완성은 얼굴) means the completion of hair style is face.
What do you think about these words ?  
 
Lookism includes judgement by their body.(fat or slender)
Here are some video relative with that.







Do you think men is more judge women by appearance?
Do you think men is more sensitive about women's body (fat or slender) ?
This video is the TV show program called 'What would you do?'.
In this program, it puts up hidden cameras and puts actors in intended situation.
But the people who are not actors don't know this situation!
Actors who take a role as rude customers are pretending to discriminate the fat girl.(Acting lookism)
But the people who don't know this situation express their opinion that lookism is bad !
If you were in same situation like this , what would you do?
Can you express your opinion in front of many people ?
Or keep still even though you think lookism is very bad thing ?





And finally let's discuss how to solve this problem (judge by only appearance) !
