Beautiful and Stupid or Ugly and Smart?

[latentimage]

I've dated beautiful-but-dumb, both men and women, and a dumb person just cannot make me happy in bed more than once or twice by accident.
Whereas, an unattractive person can show beauty suddenly, when shaken by passion. All eyes are beautiful when they front an intelligent and loving mind.

I would have to agree on this. A "conventionally beautiful" person just isn't attractive to me if they can't or won't carry on an intelligent, meaningful conversation on the things that interest me. Conversely, I find that someone who "gets" me, really and truly, to be VERY attractive in and of itself and ultimately more important to me in a long term relationship than physical appearance. Although I've only dated one or two women who would probably fall into the "goddess" category, ALL of my lovers have looked like goddesses through the haze of a mind-blowing orgasm.

There is a reason they like and have booty so much. Despite what you're likely to see in the pages of magazines featuring Brazilian models chosen for their likelihood to appeal to an American "mainstream" audience, Brazil has more people who would be categorized as black in America than the united states does. And culturally Brazil is very heavily Africanized.

Incidentally, the main slang term for a pretty girl in Brazil is Popozuda. Literally translated it means big butt girl.

well, Yum! gimme that popo!

I'd have to go with neither. I've noticed I have a really short fuse when it comes to dumb people. I just don't tolerate it very well. So it wouldn't matter how pretty he/she was, they'd piss me off really quickly. As for the brilliant and homely there has to be a spark. It's not like I date super models exclusively but I can't be suppressing vomit when my partner takes their their clothes off.

What this thread is saying is that the cliche still is true:

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

hot and dimwitted. i know it sounds superficial but almost all relationships are based of off some physical attraction. in the rare cases of the repellant yet brainy its usually more of a friendship than anything else.

for me...

Horny and I don't give a damn for me

Okay, I've decided to take the pretty stupid one. I'll get my intellectual stimulation offa the internet.

Or the other saying "Cassie, you're picky as hell and need to stop trying to date straight women." Although that saying pretty much only applies to me.

Depends on the Gender. . .

If it's a woman, hot and dumb.As long as I can watch the football game/rugby match in peace.

If it's a man, smart, and marginally attractive. I've done it before, and I appreciate a man who knows my hotspots , and I close my eyes during sex if he's doing it right. And a man who knows how I think is priceless! And I can enjoy the football game/ rugby match with him, if Pretty McDumbass pisses me off too much.

If you had the choice between someone who was physically everything you had ever wanted, but dumb as a post or Someone who was your perfect intellectual companion but physically repellant to you. (I'm talking long term relationship!) Which would you choose?

Neither. If I can't have both intelligence and beauty in a lover, then I'll stay home and jerk off.

Hmmmmmmmmmm.....

Well sweetheart, it depends on whether we are talking about a long-term, lifetime relationship, or just a short-term affair. I love a gorgeous partner for excitement...looks play a very big part in my sex.
Longterm love though is for the person I am in love with and looks or any other physical appearance, fade into insignificance... and she need not be an Einstein but compatible and able to converse. It would also be a bonus if she were blessed with a cock too.

A friend and I were chatting today and he was telling me about this woman he dated at one point in his life who was beautiful, but dumb as a post. I told him that I couldn't possibly be with someone who couldn't carry on a coherent conversation.

Just wondering how everyone else feels.

i would choose brains, since beauty is just a side bonus, so if she was beautyful, and was dumb, i would not choose her.

call me weird. But i prefer the intelligense over beauty, and the woman that makes me heart pound, everytime she writes to me is smart and beautyful.

Picky is a lot more preferable than the opposite.
Trying to date straight women is the fast lane to heartache, and lonely nights.

Speaking only as a former, very foolish, trollop.

(Love that old fashioned word)

I would have to say that I wouldnt go with either because I need a person that can talk with me about serious things otherwise it wouldnt be a very fulfulling relationship. And if I don't find someone attractive then I won't sleep with them its as easy as that for me. I would choose someone I found slightly attractive and smart over the beautiful and stupid but there has to be some kind of attraction or it leads to nothing for me.

Reminds me of a book I read once. The land is magical and everyone has some sort of magical ability, like one guy can make his pee change colour. So, this one woman's ability is that she cycles between ugly and beautiful and smart and dumb, but there are times when she has and average appearence and intellect.

To answer the question, I think I could deal with someone who is not very attractive but very smart. I can't deal with stupid people. They piss me off!!!!
