Why would I need to be attractive if I do not want to people to look at my physical being to begin with. This is why I wear a black clean relaxed cloths with no details at all, basically all my cloths are plain only memorable feature is that they are all black. I want people to look who I am and why I am, I want people to remember my ideas and my thoughts. Physical body is such a weak construction that can be shattered with ease, mind on the other hand, can not...
And I myself don't respect shallow people so why should I, that would be illogical, unless I hate myself...

Intelligence = attractiveness for quite a few people so could it be both?
Also, giving up smarts for looks is kind of stupid. You'd probably end up not intelligent enough to be worth a damn to the opposite sex. Also, I'd argue that due to darwinian logic, the people who went through this process would have a greater chance of dying because they did something entirely moronic. Thus, the world would balance itself out.

No, because I like who I am and being smart, and if I traded that for being attractive, most people would just like me because I was attractive.
I just noticed that a load of people I know have joined a group about how sexy Irish accents are on Facebook, as an Irishman in the UK I can safetly say I don't need to be more attractive.

No.Dumb,pretty people are nice to look at and fun to fuck but that's about it.Physical beauty is no substitute for intelligence
Actually, I would trade attractiveness for patience if that was possible. Do you know how hard it is to tell someone that a game like Amnesia is an actual horror game as opposed to Dead Space, when the person in question doesn't want to play Amnesia but claims so anyways?
Nah... there's working out and surgery for good looks.
Plus, cloning a new body for my mind to be put in.

i'd use my vastly superior intellect to create a beautiful clone body then transfer my consiousness into the body
This study relies on an unproven idea. For their theory to make sense intelligence have to be heritable. Just wanted to say that =)castlewise said:Found it: http://www.kotaku.com.au/2011/01/attractive-people-are-smarter-than-you-too/VanQQisH said:Sounds like an interesting study, if you happen to find it or remember its title I'd love to give it a read. I agree that every med student I know take very good care of their bodies, mostly because they know what is involved with bad lifestyles so that may have some truth to it.castlewise said:I dont remember where I read it (it may have even been here) but there was a study which said that there is strong correlation between attractiveness and intelligence.
So if you are smart you are statistically likely to be pretty, and vice versa. Kind of defeats the purpose of the poll
Anyway, I would never go for such a deal. But seeing as some people i know, who happen to be a little dense but quite attractive, envy people who are more intelligent than themselves I wonder if people might wanna do it the other way around?
