I'd much rather go out with someone who's as intelligent as I am rather than a stupid beauty. But I'd rather one-night-stand the stupid one.

If you ever find someone who does that, get them psychiatric help. Immediately.

Personally, I'd go on appearance for first impression (yes I am totally shallow) however a bad personality could quickly put me off. As for stupid, not so much of an issue. There's all sorts of ways of being smart, so saying I wouldn't date stupid people seems wrong to me.

Intelligence is very attractive, but only if they aren't pricks about it.

Well I'm Pretty shallow when it comes to first impressions but after talking to the person. I prefer someone I can have a conversation with. And dont have to dumb everything down, or end up talking about absolutely nothing.
So yeah, smarts do make someone more attractive, and being the contrary is a turn off >.>

Attractive? Well...sort of?
Let me phrase my answer thusly: Stupid people are very very unattractive.
Took the words right out of my mouth.

I'd rather have a girlfriend of average intelligence that is very attractive rather than a butt-ugly girl who's smart.

I don't know yet, but when I start to date, I'd prefer my dates don't consist of drolling retards with basketballs for boobs.

"Hot", "ugly", etc. are all shallow and stupid. Looks come second to intelligence (not book smarts - logic et al).

I will be honest. I am a pretty shallow person. I will be attracted to someone at first with their looks. Though, once I get to know someone, what really attracts me is someone I can have a good conversation with. I do like smart guys.

I know that I lack some common sense but I find myself booksmart and I am told all the time that I am pretty. I know that my ditsy-ness can turn some people off but I love smart conversations.

It's especially annoying when your (ex) girlfriend did not understand the plot of 300, or any movie we watched for that matter. That gets extremely old really fast

Attractive + Smart = Win
Attractive + Mildly Intelligent = Okay
Stupid + Attractive = Naw
Ugly + Smart = Naw

You know, I don't think it's too hard to find both.

I mean, I'm friends with a few girls who aren't conventionally attractive but are smart and have good personalities. I don't even care about attractiveness anyways, or whatever pertains to such. But, of course, and attractive airhead is still an airhead, regardless of sexual persuasions.

In my opinion smart girls are unbearably hot. I'm not sure why.
I don't know if you've been to this site yet and I'm probably condemning you, but here it is.
