Honestly, the former. I can't help that I'm male.

I'd like the first girl as a ****buddy and the second girl as a close friend.
 
I don't know how I'd end up with someone with shit personality but my cousin did and he's the greatest guy in the world...I'd rather be like him though~ looks>personality, she's not terrible though. (assuming the only other option is ugly, I can't do that). Of course like any sensible person I'm going for both :p
 
I got the hot one, cause we all know a wife should be seen and not heard. Hence it doesn't matter what her personality is just her *performance*.

Seriously you don't want a supermodel, just someone nice who isn't bad looking.
 
An obese person might be beautiful internally but what bothers me is why they became fat. What's going on in their minds? What events could they have possibly went through to make them depressed thus making them more suspectible to instant gratification; e.g. food?

If you do choose the latter (excluding the possibility of ugliness) then I suggest you open up a dialogue with her, ask her why she's fat and encourage/persuade her to become fit. It probably shouldn't be too hard considering she's a good person and would be willing to compromise for the better.

As long as she's making an effort to lose weight, everything should be ok.
 
That's a tricky one. Losing weight isn't easy, there are more factors that go into it than just being a good person and wanting to drop a few pounds. Also it's probably not be a good idea to go out with someone not because of what they are, but only because of what they could be. What are you in the meantime, her personal trainer?
 
People don't become depressed and then get fat, its the other way around.
 
I would say personality... but to be honest the first one would probably be more enjoyable.

Thats true. Even though my girl isnt the prettiest girl in the world, I like to think so, but she never believes me when I tell her. ****ing bitch...
 
Depends. In long-term, personality certainly matters more- but even then, I can't deal with, say, mirror-shattering hideousness. It's all about finding the right mix.
 
I've met someone with a near - perfect mix, but if I had to go with one I would say personality...As long as it's not the friggin' Predator I'm going with.

NO POOPER DAVE. NEIN. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. ಠ_ಠ

Oh god... I cant stop lolling.


You ****ing win.
 
I voted personality, but I would much rather have a fit, sexy girl with an awesome personality. Such a girl would instantly have me on a leash....
 
I'll live with the uggo with a great personality so she can hook me up with her hot friends.

Uggo gets a friend, I get hot chicks, hot chicks get me. Everybody wins.

A mix of the two, and they aren't hard to find.

Actually I think its impossible by definition to find a girl completely endowed in personality and completely lacking in appearance or vis versa. And if it actually did occur, which would be impossible to measure by any means, there would only be two cases.

Ok, so the bottom 10% of each extreme.
 
As Bill Engvall (I think it was him) would say: You can fix ugly but you can't fix stupid.

There's a third option missing - a beautiful mix of the two.

The lass i'm with now isn't going to win any supermodel competitions, but she's still gorgeous and has a lovely personality ... shes caring, honest, funny, and understanding... I wouldn't swap her for anyone.

I don't think much thought has been put in to this poll!

I'd never go out with an ugly person ... (there has to be an attraction there for anything to happen) ... and I wouldn't want to spend my life with someone with a rubbish personality... Sure you'd take this option, but it would only be for the sex... and you need more than sex if you want happiness in a relationship.

word to ya mother. people aren't really one dimensional beings, and while there are some stupid chicks who still happen to be good looking, most decent looking girls have decent personalities. one night stand doesnt matter as long as the person is good looking (alternatively, i'm drunk enough), but relationships are more demanding for a good fit with the personality type.
 
i say that personality is just as important as apperance, so i go for the apperance one; imean you can change someone's personality naturally, but you cant change their apperance naturally so id date someone realli fit, and try to help them change their ways
 
As long as I am attracted to her, nothing else really matters.

So it depends on something else, not personality or appearance. Appearance is more important by far though, so I guess there's your answer. You're usually never going to have a chance to discover someone's personality unless you are around them, and you usually aren't around people unless

I'm just going in circles here. Personality can strengthen attraction, but it's like adding spice to food.
 
I never understand why these sort of things are always at extremes. It's like people(Not saying you, but the other type of people who ask such things), get pleasure or disgust depending on which extreme the person chooses. It always seems like they intend it to be a stacked question.


EDIT: Whoa, old thread. Bad Alyxvance!
 
Nether.

I cant live with a girl im not attracted to. Same goes the other way around.
I cant love a girl im not attracted to.
I can be a girls "friend" if im not attracted to her.
 
I go for personality, but i dont ditch looks either.
 
Both looks and personality. Oh, you don't have one of those qualities, then GTFO!

Didn't vote in the pole, it's never this clean cut black and white.
 
When I saw this thread re-appear under "new posts" I knew it would be alyxvance behind it.

I'm far too repulsive a person to realistically find myself in any sort of relationship, much less as the object of anyone's non-hateful feelings, but hypothetically, that's roughly how it's supposed to work, I think.

Sig'd

btw, no hard feelings. I'm not repulsive and I'm the same way.
 
Appearance. The girls who have awesome personalities but don't have the looks are what we call 'friends'.

Do I need to quote Darkside from earlier in this topic? DO I REALLY?!

Let's put this into a situation so people can understand the gist of this thing. The human population is wiped out by a massive plague and you are the only male left standing. From the sea of corpses rise two female contenders: one the most beautiful woman on the planet albeit dumb as a rock, the other a pimply cow with a brilliant personality. One will drive you mad from her stupidity, but would make a good lay. The other is intellectually stimulating, but the sensation of her fat sliding like condensed pudding across her bones causes your member to recoil.

You can choose one as a life mate. The other is consumed by deadly, flesh-eating toxins for inexplicable (yet convenient for this hypothetical scenario) reasons. There is no "Both" option. There is no scientific breakthrough to fuse them into the perfect Uberfrau. You must settle for a single choice, assumedly according to what you value more (which is essentially what the poll is asking for). And while the alternative of suicide over this conundrum is probably valid, it is probably an unrealistic overreaction.

If there was an option for a partner who exhibits both a winning heart and sex appeal, it would be by far one of the easiest choices to make, thus making the poll pointless. Of course it's not always this clean cut, but the choices have to be distilled into something if they're going to carry any significance.
