Definately. After all, what is beauty without brains?

Generally I'd agree, but it really depends on how extreme each one was. There are levels where no amount of intelligence is redeeming.

The brain is the most complex piece of matter in the world, and it is central to survival. Looks are an important indication of health, but is not essential to life the same way the brain is.

I would prefer and ugly genius than a dumb pretty boy. Besides there's less competition and your more likey to have a mental relationship.
And i would prefer to get good grades and a good job on my qualifications than having to rely on my looks.

This will sound shallow but I would always for the attractive guy rather than an clever guy. Fortunately my boyfriend is utterly gorgeous and dead smart.

 "dead smart"? So, he's about as smart as a corpse? In all fairness, you *did* say you'd take looks!

Hot when he has that black hair and those intense eyes and a common-sense mind who does not mess with your head the way some will do.

Besides, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, so if you are holding him the right way.....sheesh, he looks pretty d@amn good so....ha ha.
You know?

It's a personal thing, something about common-sense in a man who goes really well with a really smart gal who is beautiful but having a blonde moment once in awhile isn't going to be a deal-breaker, lol.
At least not if he's anything of a good man, that is.
Everyone has their faults whether they are honest enough to admit to them or not, still true.

It's really just all a matter of opinion anyway.

There's no excuse. Always look good doing it no matter what. ;-)

Men SAY that they want brains, but most (not all) are intimidated by smart women and they prefer "hot" ones who at least ACT stupid and ignorant. Women who are not idiots prefer a man with a brain. But as always, there are always exceptions.

 Well I personally don't like smart women because then they start believing they are too smart and it gets really annoying when they're always competing to be the smartest, or to know something that you don't, or correct something while you're talking, if you misspelled a word and then when I do it back all hell breaks loose. And it just gets old when they're always talking about how dumb men are.. :/ I honestly want to shut them down and show them how dumb they really are, but when it comes to women I am able to keep my cool, though.

(This isn't for all women.) ^^^^^

Anyway, I'd prefer a woman who is open minded and not always trying to make everything a race to the finish. Common sense plays a big part in who I am attracted to.

Blah, just thought I'd put this.

Men generally want beauty and women generally want brain.

 I Disagree, it differs from person to person.
