It isn't the forum you expect to hear a model suggest we not begrudge her because she is beautiful. Yet in " Looks Aren't Everything ," Cameron Russell does just that -- and more -- with the kind of refreshing candor rarely found in today's beauty culture.

Modeling, she says, is a hollow experience, based on the undemocratic distribution of perfectly symmetrical features leading to unfair and unearned advantages. Beauty is paradoxical; superficial and at the same time powerful. Meaningless, yet full of meaning. But Russell barely touches the surface of the consequences the beauty paradox has on our culture, a subject I know a bit about. You see, like Russell, I am one of those who benefited from the genetic lottery; first as a professional dancer and then as a Wilhelmina model.

Being a ballerina, I trained my body to produce perfect movement. As a model, I used illusion to construct a perfect image. For both, I relied on the fortune of good genes. Like Russell, I felt ambivalent about "cashing out" on being "a pretty white girl," but it's what I did. Fast forward and I now work with others with similar backgrounds -- young models, dancers and actors -- whose youth and good looks are tied to their personal and professional success.

As a psychologist , I help them deal with returning to everyday life after they age out of their careers. As a researcher , I study the impact our youth and beauty culture has on the people who are swept up by it.

While Russell uses her modeling experience to create an interesting TEDTalk, there's so much more to this so called 'superficial' issue. Let me add a few more observations: 1 It's critical that we distinguish between beauty and attractiveness.

While beauty may be genetically determined and distributed to a rare few, attractiveness is an interpersonal experience and can be achieved by everyone. The former is static -- like a still photo -- while the latter is fluid and can change over time. Attractiveness is based on the positive perception of oneself or others, on the way a person's external features mesh with their internal ones and reflects who they are as a person. Attractiveness can come in all shapes, sizes and is ageless.

This difference underlies Russell's observation that some perfectly featured models may appear beautiful, but actually feel insecure about their looks. Attractiveness, unlike beauty, is more than meets the eye.

It's a courageous start to understanding the bias toward beauty and its impact on our culture. Although, as an aging ex-model without "a deck stacked in my favor," I just may have missed my chance!
