In my opinion if someone is ugly & people like them then it shows that the people like them for their personality & not their looks.
That is a good thing. Take it from me........
I'm a good looking person & VERY often people approach me just because of my looks. Their motives are often sexual coz all they are interested in is my body. If someone is ugly and people like them then the people that like them are good people, rather than predators.

We, the people on the Autistic Spectrum have a choice.
We can either try to "fit in" with the rest of society, or we can be so egocentric that we can't be bothered.
I choose the actor. I observe NT's. I listen to their socializing. I practice it, so in social situations I can just emulate/mimic what is expected.
It isn't natural for me, but it enables me to "fit in".
It is VERY tiring and draining, but at least we can appear like them even though it is an act. Like being on the stage.
They can't see it is emulation, and so we are accepted.
