Judging a book by its cover..

"People judge you mainly on what you look like than your personality" What are your views?

It's natural to look at someone and think they are pretty or ugly or whatever the case may be. Sure people can be too shallow.

You can think someone is good looking but you may not get along with them.

I always say that personality is far more important but everyone should know that by now.

You would think! But i feel that still today people do not, i think they judge you on what you wear, for example if you are wearing the latest fashion you have to be posh and are separated from the rest of society, or what you look like. People can be shallow but i think it's different to judging because when you judge someone you judge who they are, what they do for a living, if they look like a dangerous person. I feel that shallow is more that naturally you if you deem someone to be ugly or pretty you judge what their personality would be. I am of mixed origins and i always find people judging me or thinkings i am different rather than that person look friendly. I do agree though personality is far more important however much people judge you on superficial aspects of yourself!

I think it is really important to try to encourage our children to be less judgemental and to some degree it is happening..There are many younger people that are more accepting these days and more willing to show their differences...

I'll concede that looks do play a part in the outset. Personality trumps looks in the long run. You get enough hassle from a bad personality and you just get a gut-level reaction to ditch the person. Bad personality is emotionally and psychologically draining.

The statement is slightly true, considering the first thing people do when they see someone they don't know is judge upon looks.
When you see someone for the first time, or just in general, someone you do not know personally, you make mental notes in your head about the impression they give off based on what they look like.  Personality can also be shown through the type of clothes they wear or how they present themselves...
But I think, after you get to know the person, you make more judgements on personality.  Nothing in this world is perfect, but humans will always be humans and we are generally curious and very judgmental.
