Your are my favourite distraction!
You are my favourite distraction. Talking to you makes me nervous, talking about you takes away all my troubles. =)
Ytd was talking to Longzhao about the Philosophy of Art and Morality? Yes its a "?" We were discussing the morality of judging a person by his or her looks. Lookism is the word. I said that its okay to judge a person by his/her looks. Maybe not totally, but it would at least influence your impression of that person. And its perfectly okay wad.
Longzhao says that since people cannot determine their looks, we should not judge people by their looks because they have no say over their looks so its quite unfair. I disagree, with two parts of the statement.
Firstly, we do have some influence and control over our looks.
Secondly, just because we dun have/dun have much influence over some particular trait, doesnt mean that it cannot be used to judge us.
On my first point, I feel that we do have influence and control over our looks. Smiling more and personal grooming improves the way we look tremendously. People who smiles all day definitely look better than someone who sulks all day.
On my second point, even when a particular trait is largely determined by genes, doesnt mean that we cannot judge people base on that. Simply because all our traits are partially determined by our genes.
Bah. Stupid Longchaos hahaha. =))
