Brains or beauty?

If you could only choose between 2 things: brains or beauty, which would you prefer?

If God came down and said you could be the most intelligent, but be very physically ugly or you would be the most physically beautiful woman in the world, but be unintelligent, which would you choose?

Now imagine that you weren't limited to just these 2 choices? What if God asked you if you could have any talent in the world but be lacking in everything else and all humans would only have 1 thing they are exceptional at, what would you want?

Thats a hard question DeBora, being real smart is not important to me but neither is being real pretty. My friend Phyllis is SO smart, the smartest person I know actually, academically. She isnt people smart though and so, is alone, and very lonely. Very smart and lonely. She is average looking. She would tell you she is ugly.
I dont know any very, very pretty women....I dont know ,...tough question.

I guess if I Had to be one I would want to be smart and ugly because atleast I could make a living and probably couldn't the other way around.
I guess if I was a real brain I would want to own my own business, like a tea house.

I think I already have the one talent I would like others to see shine through and that is compassion.

How about you, DeBora?

hugs, train

I agree, this is a difficult question. I think I would want to be extremely beautiful. You could always learn to be fairly smart, and in this world where looks seem to be so important, you would always be able to get along.
As it is, I have half of both, LOL. I am okay looking, and smart.

ha, ha, ha, ha

I would rather be intelligent than smart. Beauty does not last forever and intelligence can, unless you develop dementia.

Brains, because beauty only gets a person so far, and than they need the intellect to know how to get further.

Brains defiantly, using your brain you could not only support yourself but make choices to make yourself more attractive

Hard call. I would not want to look so bad I repelled others, but really brains makes more sense!
One talent. . . not sure. . .maybe it should be decision making!
lol

Think about it. If you had the brains you could make good money using your brains. Good money would buy you some pretty good plastic surgery. lol

Hey, Debora!

Tough question(s)

I would want to be intelligent more than beautiful and have integrity more than anything else! Except, of course, to have love in my life, which I am very grateful for!
