How should we tackle financial and prosocial biases against unattractive people?

Francesca Minerva. Behav Brain Sci. 2017 Jan.

Abstract

The fact that attractive people benefit from their good looks is not bad per se. Rather, what is worrisome is the fact that unattractive people are discriminated against, and that such discrimination negatively affects many aspects of their lives. I focus on the moral implications of this discrimination and on the possible measures that could be taken to alleviate it.
