This is absolutely true. Growing up in any school, you'll realize this. I've had several different instances. Peers giving less severe consequences to attractive/popular people. The most attractive people, no matter their skill in a sport or game, chosen as "Top picks". I wish more people would realize this. It's also funny to think about how, in the past, Richard Nixon got a lot of his votes from women who simply thought he was attractive, not based on his political stances.

More people need to be aware of this!! I think that it is so crazy that jurors might not think that an attractive person is guilty of a crime -- that is definitely a problem! Great video thanks for sharing!

I REALLY wish a lot more people would be more aware of the Halo Effect.

One time at my school, there was this EXTREMELY attractive guy, resembled Andy Biersack from Black Veil Brides, except he had black and red hair, long down to his shoulders. He also always wore a chain on his green camo pants. During the beginning of the school year, he was actually really quiet, never even noticed him, could've even been a new kid. Except until the middle endish of the year, he made a Facebook, and literally msged most of the girls at our school, being really sweet to them, having phone calls with them, including me (which I didn't know at the time). He made it seem like he was interested in me, and I somewhat showed it back, because I trusted him due to him being as shy and quiet as I was in school. I even cuddled him at the park once (which tbh was really weird just bc im very shy and i literally had just met him in person that day lmfaoo). I had found out that apparently he had a girlfriend who lived in another state, and that I was supposed to not say anything or tell anyone about us cuddling. He would msg me everyday, asking to call him, and I forgot what we'd talk about, though I do know it was mostly about him and his music taste, but I remember he told me to tell him the straight up truth and not to sugar coat anything, and of course, that's exactly what I did. Even though I told him things about himself without sugar coating it, I was respectful. I told him how it was pretty fucked up to talk to me the way he did and to cuddle me, knowing he had a girlfriend and didn't tell me until someone from out school saw us and had explained how he hoped he wouldn't say anything because of it. After that, he was pretty distant. I started seeing a bunch of girls posting on his Facebook, and even at school, I overheard a conversation of how some girl didn't know how to feel about him since he called her every night, and how she didn't know if he liked her or not, because he talks to every other girl in the school. Awhile after, I confronted him again about it (respectfully), and all he did was say "You're a try hard scene kid and you listen to shitty music" and blocked me lmfaoo (I've never talked to him about my music taste, and having blues hair didn't make me scene).
Unfortunately, people were still so obsessed with him, were willing to have sex with him even though he didn't give a shit about any of them. Even my own bestfriend was somewhat in a trance by him, and she never even talked to him!

I wish more people would be more aware of the halo effect and snap out of it, because it could've prevented all the heartbreak and insecurities a bunch of girls had over the guy. It was unbelievable. It seemed the only people who disliked him, were me and most jealous guys. Glad that toxic psychopath moved and switched schools.😊👏💕

I always talk with people that have honest eyes, round eyes and a chill face...they're my favourite!

[breezemaestas]

literally watched this video after going out last night with some people that are considered 'attractive' by societal standards and this is so incredibly accurate! thank you, and keep making videos!!

[optikleriunutmusum]

What is the opposite of Halo Effect? Like, why do we think people that have personalities we like are attractive?

[fireyalex]

it's kinda crazy how I never even realized I did this too. I used to say I never cared how someone looked, that it doesn't matter. but I guess that's kinda involuntary? Idk, it is cool though

[Xanadude]

is there an inverse? like, do people find (what they find) uglier people to be less trustworthy, worse leadership, etc. ?

[SweetlilAngel]

Man, I did not believe that I thought like that. thanks for making me aware of this effect. well thought out and brought out in my opinion. I hope you have a wonderful life too ^^

[kppver]

whatever idc if I'm not attractive

[comecorrect]

Yup knew about this since the beginning of my life...that's why there are subliminal affirmation audios, subliminal frequency audios, and plastic surgery.

[jessieschneider]

This very easy to follow and it explains the Halo Effect well.

[akshaykumarsahani]

Just believe that u will be Hrithik Roshan one day and finally u will be!😂

[sanikadabholkar]

It is so simplistic yet so very impactful. I really enjoyed how you built up on real life situations and made the concept relatable to everyone! Keep up the good work!

[Ken-vlwk]

No, Halo Effect = Flames inside + dark tranquillity

[ARokPheonix]

simple. I like the way it was explained.

[Elizabeth-poqd]

seems like a well-researched video! thanks for sharing. I was wondering if you have any insight as to how as people we both seem to assume the best (in terms of leadership, etc) and the worst (vanity, etc) of people who are attractive? do those different points of view negate each other?

[nwhzwxx]

Fantastic, very informative. I love to pick my brain w/ this kind of info.

[senecabendich]

i know exactly what you mean. you are attractive and during your monologue i was thinking ALOT of great things about you. and i dont know you, except your beautiful

[lionqueen]

Now this explains why celebrities would do anything for their looks. I mean, I am not generally surprised by this fact, but hearing this makes a lot more sense to me now.
