If a genie appeared and you are asked to choose between beauty and intelligence? What would you prefer?

I would choose intelligence, because beauty fades. You can't get by in life on looks alone. You need to have some semblance of a brain to be able to survive. Perfect example, one day my husband and myself were at a restaurant. There was a very attractive girl directly behind me. My husband commented on her looks right away. ( I am quite secure in our relationship and understand that men will & do look) Anyway, the girl started talking for over an hour. Everything she said was absolutely clueless. My husband said, thank goodness he married me because I have a brain...lol.

For me that is easy, intelligence of course. But beauty is certainly fun too. :-) but to be able to really think out a subject is the essence of my life. Hopefully I have not had to make to much of a choice either way though.
