| Origin | PSL forums / older social-science word |
Lookism is the claim that appearance is treated as a moral and social ranking — prejudice against the unattractive as if it were a protected-class analog.[1] In this scene it is also the name of the defunct board Lookism.net (the L in PSL forums). The living successor scene is Looksmax.org. This wiki records the word. It does not run a lookism church.
