20、hardly a problem that most of us have to bother as much as we might like to dream that it were the case.Yet the blessings and curses of beauty have been a long-standing interest in psychology. Do those blessed with shiny faces and an attractive body live in a cloud of appreciation or does it sometim

Interestingly, the online dating website OKCupid recently reported that
