Yes this is a very interesting point. If you are good at interacting with people, the looks don't really matter so much. People will like you based on your personality.

I think we eventually all figure this out. But I really wish I had learned it when I was younger. I had a tough time growing up, got picked on a lot. I thought it was because I was ugly. But it was because I couldn't figure out how to interact with people. I often think about how I would explain all this to my kids (when I eventually have them). Because kids can be so damn mean in school.
