Depends on the situation. For e.g if I'm a scientist, and in a public place, and suddenly I get a one time chance to get all my doubts answered by meeting Einstien or have sex with Miss World. I would definitely choose Einstien.
But if it's a situation where I might get a chance to cherish beauty for a short time, I'd rather take the beauty because it's only going to bewith me for a short time. Because beauty fades, and you lose interest in it after sometime.
But wisdom/knowledge never fade. Every day you learn something for a wise person, and life is full of great surprises and wonderful conversations, where you never get bored.
For a long term, I'd definitely choose brains over beauty.
For a short period, I'd just enjoy the beauty as much as possible.

When I was young I valued the brain and not the beauty. Now that I am in mid-life, I have turned around and value the beauty without the brain. I want what I want when I want it too. Now I'm depressed. Good night!! @8-( I'm so old. Boo hoo. And flabby.
And sleepy. Phooey. (Yes, there's actually a truthful answer in there that might do somebody good) Good Luck!! Stay pretty and smart!! @8-)

Well since the beauty without a brain would be dead, and I currently don't have sex with dead people, I would probably have to say brain without beauty.

i'd %. having a mind with out attractiveness for certain. even as females hit their Nineteen Thirties or so, they receive crow's ft and wrinkles. conserving your "attractiveness" by skill of consistent cosmetic surgical procedure (in case you're that ineffective) is a dropping conflict besides. Your inner organs will age and malfunction to boot. only because someone is bodily pleasing and attracts a variety of of people from the option sex would not inevitably advise they are happier. those anybody is frequently in trouble-free words attracted to that human being because of what they seem to be. what is going to take position even as their looks fade? Will the different human being now no longer locate them worth of associating with them? in case you base your self-nicely worth on what you seem as if, you'll under no circumstances sense free because young ones is fleeting.

While aesthetics are justifiably important whether we admit it or not, intelligence is far more important. In fact, when you say "beauty" I'm sure you mean physical looks, but I have (not often, but still) found that it is possible to find someone beautiful because of their intelligence.

Well, I wouldn't want her to be ugly, but I'd rather have someone to talk to than look at. Can I have cute, but really smart?
