Girls, would you rather have a smart and skinnier boyfriend, or a good looking guy with muscles? Please me honest. Thank you

By the way, I don't mean to set up a stereotype, I know smart people can be great looking and vice versa with muscular guys. In this case though, if one of them was a good looking jockish guy and the other was a smart and skinnier guy, who would you go out with?

I would rather date someone with a good personality who had the capacity to love me and make a relationship work. Someone who is responsible and mature when they need to be, someone who can be laidback and fun when life doesn't require them to be serious.

Brains vs brawn is really kind of a shallow question.

I know this is aimed at girls, but I have to give my 2 cents.

Intelligent people aren't ugly, that's a stupid stereotype. Looks can be more or less changed, it is much harder to change someone's personality.

I would always prefer brains to looks. I am really attracted to intelligent and mature guys who have a nice personality that I can get along with.

For guys (or girls), I would always prefer intelligence over their physical appearance.

it doesnt matter when it comes to intelligence and size
if he is cute, he is cute. You can be big but still smart and skinny yet stupid. Really dont like questions like this because it isnt like every guy is cast into one group or the other. The vast majority overlap slightly

I gotta agree with Katey I don't like questions like this. Way too stereotypical and not in a good way unfortunately. Answering the question; it is always the heart that got to me first. If he's funny, mature and caring then he has a very good chance of winning me over. Looks is certainly #2 in my list. In fact, half of the entire population of my school would agree my ex is ugly as fuck. Still, in my eyes back then, he's absolutely cute.

(Y) nice point to be noted. ;)

Not going to lie, I like both. Having said that I could not date anyone I couldn't have an intellectual conversation with, it would drive me mad!

I didn't mean to set up a stereotype, I just meant if there were two guys asking you out and one of them was good looking and muscular and the other was a smart guy that wasn't as good looking as the other.

yeah there's still so much more to it unfortunately. Brain alone won't get you dates. So do good looks and muscles. We need personality.
