If you had to choose, would you rather be exceptionally smart, or exceptionally good-looking?

I'd rather be exceptionally smart, then I can create machines, invent technology and pills that can make me look exceptionally good looking.

I don't look bad and am fairly smart so I am not sure what to recommend or give you my opinion on...


I guess I would like to have more hair, however women that worry about hair are pretty shallow to me!


My problem is that the percentages of women that meet my criteria are either married or have a boyfriend... Unfortunately for them, most of the guy's are ugly... but they either have a lot of money, are exceptionally great in bed (which I doubt!) or the most common one- "He pretty much let's me be in control..."

I'd rather be exceptionally smart and therefore exceptionally rich and therefore get all the trophy chicks I can handle and then some.

Tombutler - No, you don't need more hair....many women (including myself) find balding men attractive....but, even hotter, is when they are balding and say to he77 with it and shave it off, but keep some facial hair....OMG!!!! I will have died and gone to heaven on earth!


In answer to the OP, I'd rather be exceptionally smart. Beauty fades but intelligence and personality are who we are and are forever, baby.

I'll take smart any day of the week. I can always change how I look and improve on what I have, but without brains, I ain't goin' anywhere that's good.
