What if the smoking hot woman had a horrible personality.

If all you are talking about is a first glance - then your entire thread is moot. My husband first noticed me because of my rack - but if I didn't have the personality that I have - he wouldn't have spent a second more with me.
my husband fell in love with me over the internet .... he fell in love with my personality before he ever knew what I looked like.

Can't back up that statement. You know why? Because no one thinks women being beaten up is something to joke about. You just make yourself sound like an *** and you won't backpeddle on that will you? Hell no. You will just throw out comments like the above.
it may be in poor taste .... but it is a popular joke.

I agree with the first part ... men notice pretty women.
I do not agree with the second part ... if they think they can do better, I don't believe they will try for the hotter woman.

This is funny. Are you talking US News and World Report's rankings? I think that, if they could look past a few Ws on my transcript, I might have been able to sneak into the bottom of the Tier 1 schools, but a law program would have put me to sleep. I don't know. Do lawyers think they're the most intelligent professionals? I always thought it was doctors.

However why shouldn't a woman keep quiet and do your laundry if you are providing for her? Small price to pay for being provided for in my opinion.
This. I prefer women that are thin, attractive, quiet and caring. Women that are demanding and sarcastic are a huge turnoff for me, and i've walked away from a few that were stunners. It blows my mind how many women want a traditional man, but don't want to be traditional women.

...
I'll take option 2 as she seems to be intelligent enough to handle things on her own, is independent, and looks hot.

[not sure what "keeps her mouth shut" means, though, in this context]

These kinds of threads always end up in unrealistic absolutes. It gets thrown around that all men want smoking hot babes, and all women want filthy rich sugar daddies. Okay, fine, but when we look around at the people we know, who we see every day in everyday relationships, how many of us see this in action? Probably not many. Most people are normal, average people with normal, average looks and finances. For example, my best friend from college is a nerdy band geek-type gal, and she's married to a nerdy band geek-type guy. She's not a bombshell and he's not a mogul and they're absolutely bonkers about each other. That's what we all should be aiming for.

Simple question. Just give the honest answer.

I am of the opinion that men want a lady who keeps herself up and who can handle things by herself.

Others are of the opinion that looks are less important initially than brains and other things that a lady would have to offer which I will let the opposition define since I don't agree.

Men are visual creatures. I haven't seen the man yet who would pass up fillet mignon to get to corn on the cob.

I don't see the point in denying that men will take the woman who is a hot piece who can handle things by herself and otherwise keep quiet and be the pretty lady over the woman who is alright looking but not breathtaking and has a great mind or whatever else she may have to offer.
I don't understand.

Let's just say I need me a babe with big boobs. I have two serious contenders for the title and both are well enDDoweDD <sign of the cross for first Friday of Lent>

Meeting a woman is not like voting for president. I'm not forced into making a choice in which of two options is the least horrible.
I was hoping to see an answer like this.
