A handsome young man is seen as a greater potential for reaching his goals he is visualized as a competent man. This kind of good-looking man is more likely to succeed in his life because they are given more opportunities.

The authors, Kite and Whitley, in their book "Psychology of Perjudice and Discrimination", mention that not only handsome men have more opportunities, but also women with a beautiful appearance have more chances than women with less physical attractiveness. That is because of the human being automatically chooses to give preference to an attractive person.
