Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy(值得表扬). Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisers give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告). But in the executive(行政的)circle, beauty can become a liability.

While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder(梯子)，it is negative to a woman.

Handsome male executives were considered as having most honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.

Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.

All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.

Why are attractive women not thought to be able?

An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine(女性的)and an attractive man more manly(男子汉的)than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly” qualities required.

This is true even in politics…….

　　 D. attractiveness is a both positive and negative quality for men
