Listen, there's a mathematical formula one can use to deduce facial attractiveness. It is down to good genes--of course if you're beautiful inside then it shows outside. But simply, some people are born beautiful. I'm not going into the inner beauty thing because that's not relevant in this discussion at all based on your OP. We are talking physical facial attractiveness here--or at least, I am.

I think it's easy not to be lonely if everyone is shunning you--because as long as you know why they're shunning you, it's not as big of a deal. It hurts, yeah. But it isn't lonely--one would rather be alone than surrounded by enemies and also alone. Now, I could see if the beautiful person doesn't know why people are treating them weird--then I could totally see being lonely. I just assumed all beautiful people knew why people were so nasty to them. But I admit that maybe not all do. Yeah, that's what should be done--a public service announcement to beautiful people: DON'T WORRY. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE DOUCHEBAGS. IT'S OKAY. IT ISN'T YOU--IT'S THEM. THEY'RE JELLY.
lol simple but true. I don't know--if you don't find yourself to be good company, then maybe you'd feel alone. But being alone is pretty fun, just saying (granted, I am an only child--so the concept of being alone has a somewhat different meaning to me) And it doesn't last forever. You eventually find those friends who love you for you. You just have to hang in there and keep your chin up.
3. They're generally stereotyped so completely that people can't see them for who they are.
. Men tend to be completely intimidated by them.

I think just point one might have something to it but I will come back to it.
I think the lonelyness and desperate existence is self fullfilling. The majority of beautiful women have an idea what they want out of a partner and that alone dictates whether they will be lonely or not. In answer to your second point, I don't think it's the case of the majority of men are intimidated it's when you are a man and you try to interact with any woman you hit the womans idea of who she wants as a partner. Very, very few beautiful women will lower their standards for a poor or ugly man. The vast majority want a beautifal man, a rich man, a man in a powerful position (and that includes a violent or a criminal man) so they automatically exlude anyone that doesn't drop into her ideal. So when, as a man, you have tried talking to enumerable beautiful women and just been ignored time and time again then point two becomes self fulfilling, not intimidated but just lump them all together and say"it's a waste of time trying as they just knock you back".
Point three, go to answer two. They stereotype themselves and the majority of times do not even give any man the chance to find out her "true feelings".
Point one, other women have a point because they DO have it easier in life, just because a very few beautiful women make wrong choices in life do not make the mistake of saying all beautiful women are put on or abused.
