Why do we adhere to the genetically elite? Pretty people. Why can they wield so much power?This is a question for the ages. Why is it, that when we think of the "popular kids" or the "in crowd" the images that come to mind are those of over glamorized teenagers (or in my case, since I am in college now, over glamorized "young adults") who drive nice cars, and draw attention to themselves by laughing excessively loud in public?
I'm not trying to solve the problems of the world, or to preach to society about being less shallow. I'm just marvelling at how much power one can have for something they can't control. Despite my ill feelings towards society's permanent wading spot in the shallow end, I can almost guarantee that I will turn on E news tomorrow and find myself hanging on Hayden Panettiere's every word when she talks about....well anything, just because she is prettier than me. It's the reason why so many of these young starlets are automatically role models, before they even can fully step onto the Hollywood scene.
