The reason why attractive people date attractive people is from a process known as sexual selection ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_selection ) Basically, in a situation where natural selection is not taking effect (read: The species is thriving) a new force comes to shape the species. Organisms notice what is more visually appealing, and will try to find someone with features they find appealing. Many things that humans find "ugly" are usually things show health weakness (obesity being the most common form). This may be hard to hear, but there is no such thing as being shallow. "Shallow" is a term that we as humans have devised to make the attractive feel sorry for being able to have attractive mates. We created it because of the fact that we can see the negative effects of sexual selection. So don't feel bad about dating attractive people. It isn't your fault if you are attractive. /textbook

yes there is such a thing as being shallow. How about being with someone just because they make alot of money and buy you stuff. If your an attractive person,of course you have an easier chance of dating attractive people,so I don't see how that has anything to do with being shallow. What if the attractive person you were dating was a complete ahole and you were still dating such person,just because they were attractive. Would'nt that make you shallow? What if you dating someone just because of they were a powerful person and had a high status. So I agree with some of your post,but I disagree that there is no such thing as being shallow. That's just not true.
