I don't think you're enough intelligent to get the point.

I did not say it was the key. to beauty. I said it was a anatomical feature every well-delevoped human had.
Insulting my intelligence so soon? My profile will tell you I'm a female. Surely you can come up with some more varied insults based on that fact.
The statement that it is, in fact, a feature every "well-developed" human has means that it is one of the key deciding factors in whether or not someone is beautiful. In your opinion, at least.
An correctly placed upper jaw/lower jaw IS SYMMETRY. you're thinking about the face in 2D. In 3D the upper jaw/lower jaw provides symmetry in the saggital and transverse plane. It creates a flat foundation for people to view the rest of the face.
One symmetrical facial feature does not equate to symmetry in regards to other, separate parts. You can have a symmetrical jaw and an asymmetrical nose.
Still, symmetry is only an
objective standard of beauty. It is not the be-all-end-all.
1)No, because I had absolutely no idea that my looks were the cause of people treating me better. I connected the dots backwards, not forwards.
3)Yes
4)How can you get rid of these social advantages that are a barrier to equality? What do you propose? Ask people to be less sympathetic in cases of sexual harassment to women?
6)Sure, though his selling point is more of status as an famous actor combined with looks. I never said I agreed with Chad theory. A mix of masculinity + femininity is desirable on both males and females.
1. That's exactly my point. You're biased due to hindsight and personal investment. You went in looking for the connection and you found it. Not saying that people don't treat you differently depending on your appearance (not to the extreme degree that SH preaches), but it can't be used as evidence as to how the world at large operates. It's an anecdote, nothing more.
3. Really? From one person or many partners?
4. This doesn't mean that women lose sympathy. It's about getting that same sympathy for male victims as well. It's about equal treatment on an optimal level. Treating female victims of sexual harassment and assault as more sympathetic than male victims hurts us as a society. Victims of female-on-male rape can't even press charges for the most part because the law doesn't see such acts as rape. Feminism is just as much about rectifying that injustice as it is about equal wages.
6. So fame can override any predisposition society has towards people with "unconventional" looks?
