If you love someone for their brain, you'll come to find them beautiful. If you take someone for only their beauty, they're never going to seem any smarter to you.

brains I think. a lot of beautiful people I have known have had terrible personality flaws due to their always having been told how special they are. I appreciate someone with a good mind. Actually, my hubby is cute AND smart, so I won both ways.

depends on the type of beauty you speak of....and the brains...
she could be book smart plain looking and no common sence...is that nice???? or ugly and supper intelegent...... not much better cause you must find the person attractive to even like them..... so i think if she is pretty to you then brains and beauty must be equal or it wont be the best it could be^_^

Integrity and strength of character over both. Either one of those with out the other two is a dagerous weapon that will only lead to heartache and harm.

Brains above beauty.

But why not both, and can't brains be beautiful?

Personally I am not attracted to bimbos,
but how someone looks is also important if I am to become physically attracted to them.

- Who would choose looks over brains? The first time he opened his mouth, there goes the attraction.

If we're talking about romantic relationships, I'd rather have a moderately attractive and intelligent woman than a supermodel with the intellect of a piece of toast. For me having a romantic relationship, she has to have a minimum level of attractiveness for me to be interested. After that threshold is crossed, it's then mainly up to personality and intelligence, and any "additional" beauty doesn't count for much. If she doesn't suit my fancy attractiveness-wise, it's much better to just be friends.

- I love the toast reference!

It depends on what I'm looking for - sex, a good looking piece of arm candy for a social function, or a friend. (yes, I left out "relationship", because I'm really not that into that and can't invest enough of my time into one anyway).

For sex or arm candy, beauty win every time, although the arm candy has to be at least above borderline retarded (over 80 IQ or so), or else she might embarass me or make me seem as shallow as I am. ;-)

For a friend, I much prefer brains. However, I tend to become friends most exclusively with good, or at least above average, looking people, both men and women (and I'm straight, so it's nothing to do with the looks on a conscious level). They're all smart or smart-ish, meaning at least 140+ IQ, and well educated too. I think I gravitate to people who are better looking just because they tend to have better, or at least more pleasant, personalities. Unattractive people are often depressive or sad or bitter inside, and, at least to me, don't hide it very well behind what I'm sure they believe are very sincere feelings of compassion, kindness, and good humour.

Brains. They can always be smart enough to make themselves look their best and be interesting to talk to and spend time with them. But just beauty? It's so one-dimensional and boring.

More important for what? A beauty contest, or certain movie roles would require beauty over brains, but in a trivia contest brains would be more important.

- are brains more important than beauty in general

Im not very bothered as to which one i prefer brains, this would be because i once dated a model who wasn't very clever and she spent all of her money and lost her job. but i also prefer people who are good looking but don't mind admiting that they are clever.
