stunning looks, great personality and intelligence pick two

    So, what with it being Valentines day we got to talking in work and one of the lads spoke of a triangle of sorts basically saying that for the majority of men when it boils down to potential suitors we usually wind up with someone who falls into two catagories of "Stunning looks", "Great personality" and "Intelligence" and when you happen to meet someone with all 3 she is probably out of your league :P

    So out of curiosity if you have to pick two, which would you pick?

    Personally i would go for intelligence and stunning looks...


    Also in case you ladies are feeling this is sexist or maybe feel left out he also went on to say that women view us lads based on "Good looks", "Money" and "Personality" but he was only poking fun... obviously no woman would ever go for a lad just for his cash :rolleyes:

    When i picture the intelligent sound bird i always picture that girl your female friends always try to pawn off on you by saying "goooo on, BUT she's lovely" :pac:

    Looks and personality and the intelligence wont matter too much....... He wont be doing much talking....... :-D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,440 ✭✭✭Stavros Murphy


    Looks and intelligence. Or personality. I got one.

    I'm working on my intelligence, but the personality thing is a lost cause.

    Good looking and good fun.

    Who give a toss if she knows all the winning moves in chess or finishes every crossword or gets all the numbers games on countdown.

    Fook that's hard. I'm a sucker for a good-looking man (not really, really ridiculously good-looking or anything but handsome). I'd have to choose personality and intelligence and if he was bet down, I'd hope he'd woo me with his brains and sense of humour. As long as he was reasonably fit with no beer belly he could get away with having a face like a sack of melted Euros.

    So she's out of the running then :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,366 ✭✭✭batistuta9


    looks & personality

    that has to be the choice, all the time (assuming an average level in all traits)

    personality > looks
    looks > intelligence
    personality > intelligence

    no point having a really intelligent partner if you don't get along with them or fancy them, good for having in depth discussions with or giving you advice, that'd be about it.

    I know its almost vain to say, but I like to think I'm pretty enough :o

    Think this calls for the first "selfie" of the thread though! :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,986 ✭✭✭Ihatecuddles


    Personality and intelligence, you grow to find them attractive I think. I didn't fancy my OH when we met, now I think he's a f*cking ride. Nostril hairs and all!

    that's more inclined (or only) happens with females.

    Do you have a pulse?

    That's good enough for me.

    It does'nt matter which two you pick, they are all deadly tools.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭guppy


    I'm not that intelligent, no great personality and I'm not something to write home about looks-wise, but I'm married to an intelligent, good looking man. I must be great in bed so!

    As long as she is a rich old widow with a bad cough I don't care how good-looking, intelligent or personalityful she is.

    Personally i like women with a good education... not the bookish type necessarily, most of the girls i know are all college educated and are wild but i do appreciate it when they know enough to call me on my BS or can put me in my place when i'm wrong. I also cant handle text speak, in person or in text!

    I was kidding, I don't know if I ever answer seriously in AH, if my wife heard me say that she'd kick my arse :)
    What text speak?

    education doesnt necessarily equate to intelligence

    Haha sitting on Boards on Valentines day you my friend are a keeper :D

    Text speak as in verbally using text abbreviations "Lol" "OMG" etc, to be honest it makes me feel that the whole younger generation is getting slightly dumber as the years go on! using "der" for "there" or "dat" for "that" etc etc really annoys me more then it probably should but it just screams laziness and maybe even lack of intelligence in some cases as i know from texting people that the standard of spelling is horrific these days! Maybe i am just becoming an old, lonely moan haha

    I know what text speak is :), thought you meant I used text speak (AI).
    I'm getting on, but not that old I haven't experienced that. I admit to abbreviating text messages solely for the purpose of squeezing it all into one message, still it needs to be intelligible. I have my limits, any more than one message probably requires a phone call.

    Looks is nice, probably couldn't have a relationship without having at least some physical attraction, personality is probably more important, as in something you can relate to, probably same for intelligence. To tolerate an absolute moron, she'd have to be super hot, great rack :D(lols, XD, etc :))

    No wasn't referring to you in the slightest!

    I don't think i could tolerate an airhead no matter how hot they were! I meet the type all the time... drop dead gorgeous and always surrounded by people yet any time i talk to this type of person i end up struggling to make conversation and not because i'm in any way intimidated etc, literally just because i struggle for any sort of intelligent conversation! When the conversation revolves around programmes on E entertainment i usually take that as my queue to leave!

    On the other hand an extremely good looking girl with a brain who is a complete bitch is something i can get down with! in fact that kind of turns me on :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,903 ✭✭✭frozenfrozen


    I choose stunning looks and great personality. I know how to google things so I'll be able to make myself look intelligent. That way I'll have one of the three. I traded my two picks for pick and mix

    I think that's a misconceived idea, those kind of tits usually come attached to a big fcuking chassis:eek:.

    edit ahh ha ha hmmm, didnt see that till it was quoted and posted :)

    I could tolerate a hot airhead (quite easily), if she was a genuine nice person and not conceited.
    on the other hand
    I dont care how hot/intelligent/interesting/how great her rack is, if she is a self absorbed nasty bitch, wont tolerate that at all.

    edit, Well not until she'd jumped me a few times just to be sure, of course its all hypothetical in my case, but in my earlier years, if such an opportunity came about.

    Stunning looks and great personality are far more endearing for me.

    Would you prefer a girl who could make you laugh or educate you about the effects anal sex has on western civilisation? It's a no-brainer.
