Poll: Brains, Beauty, or Money.

These are very hard choices....

1. Brains - I wouldn't want a woman who was so smart that she would think I was dumb....nor would I want a woman so dumb that I would have to explain everything...
2. Beauty - Isn't it suppose to be in the eye of the beholder??? As long as I think she's beautiful, that's all that would matter
3. Money - NO matter...just causes more problems when you have that much money(100,000,000)

I'd have to say....none of the above...as someone mentioned earlier,

Personality.....
 
Well, since personality doesn't seem to be a choice, might as well make her beautiful so that she's at least pretty to look at if there's nothing in common to talk to her about. . . . 😉
 
beauty...

who says I have to talk to her 😉
and dumb people tend to follow instructions better 🙂

I'm just playing round 🙂
 
Personality would be number one.

Beauty, who cares?
Money, I'm happy with my status there.
Brains, never really concidered that a requirement.
 
brain,

with the brain, she can make all the money you will need.
then you will not be poor,
and when you turn off the light.. is the same. hehe
 
when men choosing women, i think money is no issue.
the question is how extrime? i think i can live with a "blonde", but i prefer smart women...
 
Brains + OK looks ==> OK
Looks + OK Brains ==> Less OK

But of course, personality is more important than either.

Money ==> Important in that I don't like dating people who are impressed by money, but otherwise it's irrelevant.

It's true though. I have found that money can make just about anyone look good. It's amazing what a good haircut and a knockout suit will do.
 
GirlFriday, I'm actually 17, nearly 18, thank you.

I guess I'll just ignore what you said


Aww darn it, go ahead, everyone else does anyway. 😉
 
kinda hard to choose. tough choice between looks and brains. i guess the person should have an average for both of these. but i think that someone should be able to constantly interest you and make you happy. so... i would say brains.
 
Having dated everything from the head cheerleader to the ugly girl nobody would go out with, incluidng both rich and poor, smart and dumb.

My feeling is to go with the smart ones. Sure, the pretty ones are fun, they turn heads when you walk into a restaurant, and the money ones are also fun, taking you to the nicest restaurants, but the best are the smart one. The pretty ones don't stay pretty very long, and the money ones, don't seem able to hold on to their money, but the smart ones stay smart for much longer. Of course this means you will never be with a blonde.
 
Brains but really personality. I do not like people who are so smart they have no sense of humor. I love my wife most because she makes me laugh all the time. They say laughter is the best cure 🙂

Outward beauty is nice, but not that important. I consider "beauty" to be the combination of outward and inward traits that make a person who they are. Sure I get a hard-on when I see a buxom babe, but I know it is only a fleeting feeling and not indicative of how I would actually feel about that person long-term.

Money would be last simply because anyone can make it, I do not care how smart or dumb you are. But that is another thread 🙂

 
I care nothing about how much money someone has, that is my last concern, and a distant one at that. I think a girl has to have a mixture of beauty and brains and personality. I've known too many girls that were beautiful and smart, but complete b!tches. I hate saying beauty needs to be a factor, but I more mean presentability. I don't think a girl has to be incredibly beautiful, but I need to not be scared when I look at her.

I have to hope girls care more about the brains and personality than the beauty. I'm not the hottest guy around.
Here's ME my web cam is cheap, so the quality is kinda low. Yes I know I'm hideous so don't mock me, I can do that myself.

(edit) links don't appear to be working to geocities,
here's the URL try copy and paste. http://www.geocities.com/thraashman/me/steven1.jpg


Ok. I gotta say it. So like AM I Hot Or Not? hehe
 
Personality first, then brains, then beauty, then money as a distant last.

As they say "Beauty fades, Sex wanes, but you still need someone to chat with over supper".
