    Looks are temporary anyway. If you want to be with someone for life, you need to make sure that in 20 years time when it all drops that you're still left with someone who's good conversation and whose company you actually enjoy.

    i think if i am being honest its looks first but personality next. We have this debate quite often amoung friends and one lad put it in a crude by interesting way,

    If you were in a night club and the music was so loud it was to the point of defening and a georgous leggy blonde came over and kissed you would you refuse it? I dont think so!

    Haveing said that if you spoke to a lovely women who connected with you on all levels on the phone would you not feel a slight attraction regardless of how bad she looked when you met her!


    Looks first personality second. However personality endures where as looks fade!

    I'd say I'm 70/30 in favour of personality.

    Both really... I'm quite bastard-ish in that way. I can't say I'd value one more than the other... Though as someone said already, a good personality counts loads. It really does make someone more attractive.

    Initially, looks. If you're not sexually attracted to your partner it won't work, regardless of how sound they are.

    After the initial attraction evaluation though, personality matters greatly. It will last even less time if you don't get along.

    Looks get you interested, personality seals the deal.

    A good personality can make someone more physically attractive to me for some very odd reason.

    Its the question that no one answers truthfully, but since we are all on this interweb gadget posting our "honest opinions" what is the verdict? Me? Honestly its 70% personality 30% looks, this used to be the other way round but when you get older you realise there are idiots out there!

    Let the games(kinky optional) begin;)

    Some people have both, i tend to go for them.

    I like cuddly men but I don't want a relationship I just want man-hugging okay-to-gorgeous fellos and then see you later. Nice personality is a bonus though. I want a cuddly friend with extra's but only casually.

    What?

    I would definetley say Personailty,if you have a good looking Girlfriend your going to feel insecure when she chats other fellas,which will happen all the time due to her good looks.I rather go with an average looing girl that i got on really well with.Good looking girls are more hassel than their worth.

    She must have both.

    If she has a personality thats electric but looks like Ed the talking horse, im not hitting that.

    If however, she looks like Halle Berry but her head is so vacuous that she is pulling the moon closer to earths orbit, i'll hit it, but leave..

    You need both, personality intelligence and hottness.

    Looks easily.
    But i'm sure people here would have you believe they'd go out with a terrible looking person if they had a great personality.. HA!

    Beautiful-looking guy with sh1te personality versus average-looking guy with great personality? Option two, for me, is infinitely more attractive.

    Once the guy isn't Quasimodo-like and once he takes care of himself/makes the best of himself physically, I wouldn't be concerned if he wasn't gorgeous.

    People say looks can't be worked on...that's not true. The fitter one is, the better they'll look with their physique. But anyway... I'd say it's about 70% personality and 30% looks. Of course it varies on many factors...it's hard to gauge.

    I'm stunningly beautiful and more fun than anyone you'll ever meet.
    And horribly alone.

    Hallelujah! Unless you're suffering from some sort of deformity, there's not a fitting makeover (or work out/diet) that can't give you a certain charm. The problem is that not anyone knows how to make themselves look good, and when you look at Irish and British women you realise that it's sometimes the ones who look the less into it that look the best (hint: getting caked on and dressing up like a 2 euro ho isn't the way to go).
