I work in a hospital full of doctors and nurses. One common trend I notice among the ugly/average nurses that they don't seem to grasp is that you NEED to be good looking in order to marry an ugly/average doctor. Yes, there are exceptions. However, chances are, if someone works their ass off to make a good income, they are going to expect something nice to look at after-wards.
Why don't most women grasp this?
In my field, the salaries are similar to that of doctors and I don't see an excess of ugly/average guys dating particularly good looking women....average women yes, "hot" not particularly.
Any such bias in the medical field is probably more likely due to that fact that the title of doctor has prestige attached to it, and in my experience, that's 50% of why some people go to medical school. Most doctors I know on a non-doctor/patient basis are somewhat arrogant, including the ones in my family.
In contrast, most people in my field are rather humble.
