Beauty is only skin deep, lol
I've met some really beautiful people who turned out to be total a-holes.....

Conversely I've met some people who weren't anything spectacular
in the looks dept. but had rock star personalities.....

I tend to attract really, really good looking men tho, IRL who are also extremely cool........

The thing is, the more you get to like someone, the better looking they appear.

It's not a tirade. I'm just trying to get you to stop being so negative about other people and answer a question that is only about you. Why can't you simply answer the question? I'm not trying to be mean to you - I'm trying to just get you to answer the question.

The question was irrelevant to the post I responded to.

The question is the point of the entire thread. What is most important to you - looks or personality?

The op's question was not what I replied to.

But saying you'll take an "average" guy doesn't mean that looks aren't important if "average" is still in the realm of what you find acceptable. Saying that you'd take a hideous guy who can hold his own in a conversation would give more weight to personality being more important than looks.

Looks are important to me.. Personality is too but honestly Ive only met a handful of people that had really horrible personalities-one of them I did date and so I can see how that matters. Overall I'm an agreeable person so personality only matters to an extent. Looks matter more to me than personality but only a tiny bit more... So it isn't as though looks are the only important thing-but if I was measuring it then yes looks are more important to me.

Not true. Both are important. The question was which one of the two was most important.
