Explain this sudden lack of standards in society, /pol/. Back in the day an undesirable woman would be ignored and told to improve before anyone ever looked at them.
>Without beauty, a young girl is unhappy because she has no chance of being loved. No one makes fun of such a girl or bullies her, but she is invisible, so to speak, and no one looks at her. Everyone feels uncomfortable in her presence and prefers to ignore her.

This is one of the main disadvantages that excessive beauty brings to a girl: Only the most experienced, cynical, unscrupulous seducers feel equal to the challenge; and therefore the treasure of her innocence generally falls to the most unworthy beings imaginable, and for them this is the first stage of an inexorable decline.
