A Google image search on "Bettie Page" is proof of the inaccuracy of OP's claim.
I had 'Betty bangs' or U-bangs for YEARS before finally growing them out. It's too humid here in Boston to keep up with them and I have fairly curly hair to begin with.
I absolutely look better with bangs, especially with the short U style bangs...it's just too time consuming for me now.
Of course, I don't base my hairstyles on pleasing random dudes so I'll just continue doing what I like.
If most of the hairs are side-swept over the forehead and clump together, I don't consider that bangs.
The issue should be pleasing any dudes. I'm still waiting to hear, for the first time in my life, a particular male say that he loves bangs (and not just on a beautiful woman who could pull off many other styles).

That's BS. Tons of people have overly high foreheads or round cheeks or other features which make them look way better with bangs. Bangs are also great for accentuating eyes and cheekbones. I look much better with bangs than without.
Just like with any hairstyle-related thing, bangs work for some, not for others.
Problem is that when they become popular (like they are now) everyone gets them and the ones that look bad stand out.
Also, maybe I have bad taste in women but I think Zooey (who seems to be the poster-child for bangs) looks horrible with them. She has such a beautiful face and her hair hides it. Her sister didnt look good with them either
I think bangs look best on women with larger foreheads. Rashida Jones is a good example. She looks great with bangs and her forehead would look pretty big without them. I can't think of many cases where guys look better with bangs.
I personally wouldn't call the last two styles pictured "bangs," but that photo series tells me that bangs are popular in part because they're work-appropriate.
To me, the first pictured hairstyle has the most potential for looking inherently attractive. It's too long on the sides, but it gets points for a blend of creativity and natural.
Surely you see that this entire post and thread is a matter of taste and opinion, and nothing more.
