I would love to be prettier than I am now (haha I'm vain).... but if I had to choose between the two, I'd much rather be smarter. I know a lot of super smart people, and I have an inferiority complex about it!
What about you?

This might sound weird, but I think I'm already pretty darn smart! So... Prettier I guess? Really I wish sometimes I was a harder worker or less lazy-- I have the smarts but I don't always work to my full potential.

Smarter!! What good are you if you only have looks but your as dumb as a box of rocks? I guess, I wouldn't want to be ugly...but a happy medium.

A few friends and I play "would you rather" like it is our part time job.
Depends on how much greater the increase is... If it is only slight to moderate I would choose looks. However, if it was a good leap.. I would choose intelligence.
*basing this with my current looks and intelligence - not assuming I would live life like a mensa ogre

Looks, I have enough smarts for this stage of my life!

I'd have to choose looks, I'm more dissatisfied with how I look. I am okay with never being smarter than I am right now.

umm, can thinner count as prettier? i'm ok with my looks when i'm thin, actually, in hindsight, i like the way i looked- but only when i'm thin and right now i'm faaaaaaarrrr from it! and my brains may not be the brightest brains, but they're enough for me =)

I'm pretty happy with where I am brains wise so I'd have to say prettier... I hope that doesn't make me horribly vain! Lol

Smarter, since I'm reasonably okay looking. lol
If I were ugly, I might say the opposite, since I'm already reasonably intelligent as well. ha!
Being dramatically smarter though would be awesome.

Prettier, gonna be honest. I feel pretty smart, smart enough at least. Smart enough that I feel like I could do whatever as long as I was willing to put in the work. I feel pretty, but I'd love to be a total knockout.

Smarter! I am reasonably smart but I have known some crazy smart people and I am always in awe of them.

Prettier. I'm satisfied with my smarts right now and with my personality, being smarter could possibly be a bad thing.

Hmm. I am satisfied with my looks and my brains. I'd pick option C....richer!

I'm well-educated and happy with my intelligence, but have very low self-esteem due to my looks/weight, so I'd choose prettier.

I'd definitely take prettier! I don't care if that makes me a terrible person!!

I'm satisfied with my intellect so I definitely want to be prettier.

Right now.... Prettier, lol! I'm a sahm. I have my masters. I dont feel like I need more brains. But being prettier would be nice.

Prettier! I used to be an ugly duckling so in my experience life is soooo much easier on beautiful people!

Unless thinner counts as prettier I would have to choose smarter.

@Modern Daisy: my MIL always says life is easier for pretty people. She says they get many more perks in life!

@Rainbow Sprinkles: i've been on both sides and can confirm that people are far kinder & more generous to you when you're prettier!

Prettier...I like myself and my intelligence. Better looks would change who I am less!
pomelo / 5331 posts
I'm smart enough, so as long as we're not talking about sacrificing one for the other, I'd want to be prettier. I wouldn't sacrifice my intelligence for more looks, though.

Smarter, I'm happy with my brains and looks, but maintaining pretty is just too much work for me to bother with. Wow, that sounds like tired Mommy, doesn't it?!

@mrs. bird: I'm with you I want dinner. Maybe I'm being vain but I'm pretty smart and I'm not half bad looking so just a little less of me to look at would be nice.
