I was reading this is the forums this morning.  It made me laugh…  Pretty women are probably the least discriminated against stereotypical group…

I am relatively new to prosper. Researched alot of older loans and their success rates and also studied some of the more recent loans that have been filled. It seems that prettier women get more people to bid on them and their rates drop more significantly than say an average or below average looking person. 

Personally, i am turned off by good looking women when it comes to lending money on prosper.

I also think that prettier women tend (not always) to be more high maintenance which could lead to bad financial situations down the road.

thoughts?

• Prosper Investing Tips and Testimonial I've been lending on Prosper for a bit over 7 months now. I've seen quite a few loans move in and out of late status.
