Beautiful and intelligent is not an option. That's the whole point of these "would you rather"/"this or that" questions

Just give me both and I'll be fine. Seriously, it's too much of a choice. I mean, of course I know that intelligence is more important than looks, but I won't be a hypocrite... Especially nowadays, but not only, looks are not only important for, you know, the "others", but also for being confident with yourself.

Yeah i think you are right, looking good helps one build self esteem, it is totally true.

The opposite of intelligent is not ignorant. If you're ignorant that only means you have no data on a subject. If you're stupid you're unable to process data even if you get it.

neither. we are who we are, and we should be happy. No one should decide if we are ugly, or pretty, or smart, or stupid

I think I'd rather not make that choice! I'll just stick with what I've got! ;)

I'd rather be beautiful but ignorant because it's a lot easier and cheaper to change my intelligence than my looks. I can go to the library and read lots of educational books. If I were ugly and intelligent and wanted to be beautiful, plastic surgery is necessary and I don't have the money or the ease of mind to get it done.
