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.
Yup, and when her looks fade, does he trade her in? I don't really get what you are asking. Does he want her for what?? Is he looking for a quick lay, is he dating her, just taking her to social functions? Are they friends with benefits or are they getting married? I would think you'd need to define WHAT the relationship will be.

Afterall, if I was just looking for a quick lay I'd want the eye candy. (okay, that's really not my style but for arguments sake).
If I wanted a partner in life I'd be looking for something completely different.

Also, I don't get it. She keeps her mouth shut? So no conversation? Who does he socialize with in the evening. Does she just sit across from him and bat her eyelashes? And this is supposed to do what for him?

Also, does option B come with her own personal feather duster? You know, so he can dust his trophy off every so often. Standing there looking pretty is dirty work!

Oh, wait.... You said "gentlemen"... Sorry, I'll back out now.
Before the ladies jump all over this I define gentleman as a man who treats women right and provides with the finances and shows respect to himself and others through his actions and manner of dress.

I'm out. I wore this shirt my wife got from sabas, against my better judgement. I felt like I should have been kicking poo around a barn all day. My co workers were right to make fun of me.

Regardless of the long term intentions. Just living in the here and now. No in-depth thinking required.

By keeping her mouth shut I mean a woman who isn't out to bore you to death with the latest episode of Jersey Shore or to prattle away with the gossip of the day but can hold a decent conversation when the man initiates it or asks for her input on something.

Yes B comes with a feather duster to clean the house the man provides for her.

I don't understand these woman who expect a man to provide for them but they can't even manage to keep the house clean and complain and say that the work should be shared so that way when the man gets done working 8+ hours he is expected to come home and clean 'his half' plus cook dinner and heaven forbid there are children involved.

By mannor of dress I mean as it applies to off time. It can't be helped if the man is in a laborous field like construction or farm work etc.

So she should only converse when he initiates conversation??? Wow

Now, I'm all for cleaning house...I stay home currently so that is my responsibility. HOWEVER (and this is a biggie)...the chores in this house don't end when the clock strikes 5:00 so when he comes home, it becomes OUR responsibility. I never signed up to be his slave...his partner yes, but never his slave.

It's almost mathematical.
B looks with a B personality
makes for a higher average than
A looks with a D personality.
Even when I was in high school and college.

I don't need either...

I don't need somebody with a hot face or somebody who thinks they are intelligent and needs someone of equal intelligence because they have a JD from a Tier 4 school and watch the Colbert Report.

Down to earth, caring, and motivated...

I wear a t shirt and shorts. Do you by any chance live in Scottsdale, Arizona, with this way of thinking?

Does she have to sleep on the floor?

Is she required to thank the man for the feather duster?
