Physically attractive individuals earn substantially more than otherwise similar unattractive individuals. The beauty wage gap is the largest among black women.

No, and yeah - I was actually going to write about gender playing a part too.

Women are less friendly to men, because they're afraid of being harassed/making the wrong impression. There's just so many creepy dudes, it's safer to avoid.

Men on the other hand, often aren't that friendly to each other either - at least not from my experience. Only if there's some kind of pre-existing connection or context, like friends of friends, or a party.

Women just tend to be trusted more, and people are more open and friendly with them.

So yeah, there's also some female privilege alongside the attractive privilege.

Obviously this is all just my thoughts, based on my experiences and what I've observed.
