Beauty gives confidence true or false?

I believe that in some circumstances beauty does give confidence. Before I fell pregnant with my first child I was told I was beautiful at least 5 times a day due to the amount of make-up I wore and the clothes that I wore. Now I only get told I am beautiful by my partner (which is nice). I have had 2 children and have lost alot of confidence due to my apperance now. I have alot of confidence in what I need to do for example my college courses and looking after my 3 weeks old and my 14 month old but I dont feel confident walking around the streets to go to the shops or something. People dont see how smart you are they see hpw nice you look! I choose not to wear make-up now as I dont want to give off the wrong impression to people as my partner is out all day working and alot of people already look at me like I am a single mother and I hate it!

true

I don't think beauty if you call it as such gives confidence to a person. Firstly Because what to me appears beautiful, might not appear beautiful to you. Moreover, getting compliments for one's good looks often can help boost a person's confidence and increase one's chances to be at his or her best during selection, increasing one's chances of getting selected. So, good personality is important and beauty can contribute to it. But if you feel beautiful from inside, it also shines through in your personality and can help you also give your best. So If you have the will, there is always the way with God's grace. :)

Hi dolmitta, am playing catch up eith my emails....beauty does come from within but at the same time if you look good you feel good, and that is true too, so it can work both ways...yet a lot of people do get preference because of their looks especially when it comes to jobs...LoLo

well i think confidence has something to do with outer/physical beauty. It is human psychology to appreciate beauty and you would have noticed that people (mostly men) turn around to give a second glance at those who look good :) I personally am confident when i feel that i look good or prim. This is true especially when it comes to women :)

Hi dolmitta: I don't agree with you completely. Beauty does give confidence to a certain extent. But unfortunately, it also gives a wrong message to the person concerned. He or she thinks that just because they are beautiful, they can get anything done. Then what happens is they become arrogant, and insensitive to other peoples feelings. But of course not all, there are people who are really beautiful inside and outside and they are the real beauties. When we say beautiful we mostly think of girls or women. When these people apply for a job or go for an interview, they give a very good first impression and there are people who have been given jobs based only on their appearance no matter what their education or levels of skill are. But the outside beauty fades away and only whats inside you will sustain you in the long run.

yes, beauty adds points to the selective measures.suppose u are a selection commitee member and there is a tie between two persons , both equally intelligent but one is good looking other is not. Who would you choose? people like good looking faces and i would choose a better looking person. Confidence is an important part in many fields but if both beauty and confidence matches then it will be a perfect match. Beautiful people are given more priority and they get confidence easily dur to their beauty while ugly people are less confident as they know that their looks will not help them in many places.

has its own pros and cons, i would say 60-70% true

many people believe that beauty gives confidence but the fact is a good overll personality gives confidence. personality would include, proper dressing, ettiquetes, communication skills, awareness, nd other soft skills together make the personality of the person. a beautiful girl who is unable to communicate effectively may have a lot of confidence but it would die the moment she is in front of a group where she has to present herself. so confidence has nothing to do with beauty.
