Do you think that people gain advantages and/or face disadvantages in various aspects of life based on their physical appearance? Explain.

Definitely yes, it's been scientifically proven that attractive people are treated better and given more opportunities by other people

No. I have heard of "attractive" celebrities get backlash hurled their way.

Not necessarily. If you are of the stereotypical cookie cutter pretty variety, which is just one form of "pretty" tbh, you drastically increase your chances of being objectified and you run the risk of relying on looks since its easily rewarding rather than focusing on building your character. I think with woman especially there is higher risk of indirectly or directly treated being seen as a sex object first based on pure looks alone which can be devastating in long term relationships.
That could be worse being than constantly being rejected because you don't fit into someone's else beauty standards. Ugly is very subjective as well, I'm sure it's more of matter finding the right type that finds your looks appealing than beating yourself up if you don't look stereotypically perfect or attractive.

The way I view this is that anyone being "othered" is going to have things be more difficult than someone who easily blends in. This includes those on the high end of the looks spectrum, even if it's typically a better situation than someone on the low end.

Yes. It's one of the biggest factors of your quality of life that isn't recognised enough.

People who are more conventionally attractive by society standards because they fit certain boxes like being thin/athletic, not disabled and being upper class certainly do get treated better. But I think calling it pretty privilege just means pushing all these “isms” under the bed from addressing larger issues at hand that go in to what we describe as “pretty privilege”
