      As a matter of fact you can "learn", or at least acquire, good looks. Have you seen half of Hollywood? A lot of so-called "beautiful" people are hideous without their makeup. Between makeup, dentistry and plastic surgery, you can very much acquire as much good looks as you have the money to pay for.
