given the situation that you have to choose your partner according to this standards: a guy or a girl that possess good looks but has a low IQ meaning they are not smart or a guy or a girl that possess high IQ meaniug smart ones but their looks are not that nice...not beautiful or handsome enough.

I would have to pick the higher IQ. We are all going to age and whatever level of "beauty" we have is temporary. When I am old and wrinkled I want to be with someone I can talk to, laugh with, and that stimulates my mind.

beauty is indeed temporary even if the technology of beauty improvement steps in it will still fade away.

Tough call because as much as people say looks don't matter we all at least consider it. But I'd have to say average looking with high IQ. I can't stand people who can't carry an intelligent conversation. I don't need a genius but I need someone who can at least be my intellectual equal.

I'd also have to say the average looks/ higher IQ person. I'm shallow in that I can't bring myself to think romantically about all people, if I don't find them attractive, but it's certain qualities that makes a person attractive to me, more than just looks, but their attitude, their intelligence, their kindness, their sense of humour... but I've been with some people that weren't very smart either, but after a while, you really have nothing to talk about that both want to. That's what I've found anyway.
