Some might consider it an ugly truth that attractive people are often more likely to get jobs than those less blessed with looks. But now our appearance is emerging in legal disputes as a new kind of discrimination. “Lookism”, it is claimed, is the new racism, and should be banished from civilized societies. Economist Daniel Hamermesh argues that ugliness is no different from race or a disability, and suggests unattractive people deserve legal protection too. According to his findings - being good-looking helps you secure that position or earn you more money. Do you think we should start looking into having legal protection for unattractive people?
