A newer word for discrimination or predjudice against people based on their physical appearence and gender exspectations. Lookism discriminates against both "beautiful" and "ugly" people, as it is predjudice against a person for the way they look, positively and negatively.

Also the preconcived notions or stereotypes on a person because of how they look, or their gender.
"Beautiful woman will be paid more then less attractive woman in the work place beause of their appearence." -that is lookism.

But they are sorely, sorely mistaken. And should probably have their hearing checked!
They're saying Lookitdat, Lookitdat not Boogedy! Boogedy!

A cool band from Atlanta that writes interesting and unique songs. I’m still trying to get “Body Heat” and “Green Ideas” out of my head. Also I think they’re from outer space.
Have you heard the new LOOKiT single? It’s weird and cool!
