Why or why not are you only pretty as you feel?

You're only pretty as you feel
Only pretty as you feel inside
You're only pretty as you feel
Just as pretty as you feel inside

When you wake up in the morning
Rub some sleep from your eye
Look inside your mirror
Comb your hair

Don't give no vanity a second thought
No, no, no
Beauty's only skin deep
It goes just so far 'cause
You're only pretty as you feel
As pretty as you feel inside
You're only pretty as you feel

So girl, don't hang yourself up
On no plastic face
A little bit of soap will wipe away
Any grease
'Cause

You're only pretty as you feel
Say, you're only pretty as you feel inside
Strip
So now you're feeling so pretty
Now you're feeling so good
Now you're ready to face the world
Now you're feeling good
Go out there and knock them silly girl
Go out there, show them how to thrill
Go out there show them how to thrill
Oh, go
You're only pretty as you feel
Say, you're only pretty as you feel
Mama
You're only pretty as you feel (pretty as you feel inside)

You're only pretty as you feel
Feelin' pretty, feelin' pretty
You're only pretty as you feel
Feelin' so pretty, feelin' so pretty
Feelin' so pretty, feelin' so pretty
Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty mama

    Like with so many sayings, I don't agree.

    Sure, confidence has an effect on a person's energy, mood and behaviour.
    It usually does make a person more attractive.

    But pretty or beautiful is also a culturally defined judgement and a matter of personal taste.

    There's an interaction between what happens inside and outside; they affect it each other.
    It's rarely a one-way process.

    If you dangle a nice wriggly rat in front of a snake that's still digesting its food, nothing will make it want to take that rat.
    A large element of attraction is desire. If desire is not present in the beholder, pretty is barely even noticed.

    As libido wanes with age, physical beauty becomes less and less a trigger for desire.
    A very young boy or a very old man might like the sight of a lovely young woman but it does not stir his gonads.

    (Confidence can also have the opposite effect.
    I've seen people who are extremely confident of their attractiveness and yet totally unattractive -
    Their assumption that they're irresistible is part of what makes them repulsive.)
