Is humour/personality.........

.......more important than looks?

Discuss.

personality can easily make a person more attractive, but all the good looks in the world won't give them a personality
So yes probably

I don't see this as being a topic specific to this forum, and perhaps it needs a wider audience to get the views from both sides, so I'm moving it to AH.

Most definitely personality is more important than looks.

A good personality makes even the most plain of people attractive and good to be around, but looks alone don't make a person good company.

Back on topic though, i've heard so many people say it and alot of posts on PI mention it, Personality will win over more women than a fat wallet or good looks.

Thats an unusual and often overlooked requirement. Think of the temper tantrums though.

Think you need a happy medium, you need to have a physical attraction aswell as a mental one.

*reminds me of one of the jokes on Eddie Murphy RAW. "I dont fck no ugly funny bitches...hey baby tell me another one of them jokes.."

A great personality is absolutely important but you can't be with a person if you don't have that physical spark

Also think of the lack of soul.

Personality lasts longer than any good looks!

Ive found intelligence to be the sexiest attribute in women.

minxie

its personality for me, nothing like having a great sense of humour,
looks are not very important at all...its all about whats on the inside that counts...

Yes, no question.

True, but that physical spark doesn't have to be dependent on her being a stunner ... and personally I think personality has as much to do with the physical spark as looks.

Have often found myself being very attracted to a girl and an hour after I met her ... DO NOT WANT!! :eek:

Admittedly, I have occasionally stuck it out until the next morning ... just to give her a fair chance, like! >_>

I definately think theres a happy medium. I would have to find the person physically attractive, but one things for sure, a relationship definately won't last if she doesn't have a good personality.

I'd say humor and personality are definitely more important than looks, but there does need to be an attraction involved. If a guy is sort of average in my eyes then the personality could make him damn sexy, but if he looks revolting I doubt any amount of charm could make me want to be with him tbh.

Lol, wtf? Did you think I was a gay male before or what?

Your not going to strike up initial conversation by thinking g, that person looks like they have a lovely personality!! And might sound awful but sometimes its nice to be shallow and with bueatiful people- But probably inly if your 16 or so! know I could totally handle Johnny Depp even if he was a twat - but he isnt because he is just too bueatiful!

And er beauty is in the eye of beholder and all that!
Sex appeal appearance maintanence(does not apply to men) and how one holds and conducts them selves are of all important as apposed to blessed ggod looks but when someone can make you laugh well thats probe more important - thats what freinds are for though!

Personality is always a plus, then again so are big tits and a tight ass.

Hmmm, quite the connundrum.

Yup, I agree. A fantastic personality and sense of humour would make most guys attractive to me but if a guy is really horrible then that wont work!

Although possibly that's not looks, rather guys who dont look after themselves in terms of hygiene etc!

Anyway, I always go for personality and sense of humour over looks, but I've been lucky that the looks have been great too!

As someone who has been blessed with all of these attributes I'm not really in a position to comment.

They must cancel each other out..

ejmaztec

If you're not strapped for cash, and know a good cosmetic surgeon, it's easier to make someone better looking than to try giving them a personality and a sense of humour.

Personality is way more important. I'm living proof of that. I may be no Lyle Lovitt or Morgan Freeman in the looks departement but I charm gets me places, and also the fact that I can sing a mean version of Total Eclipse of the Heart!*

As a male friend of mine always says:

"You can do a lot of things to a fine arse, but talking to it isn't one of them"

There has to be a degree of physical attraction there aswell tho methinks; to the other party anyways, even if nobody else can see it!!!

Sherifu

Yes, it's more important.

Joe Cool

In the right circumstances yeah but they don't get you too far in a loud pub or club.
