Beauty VS Intelligence VS Social Genius?

[Alberta]

For Men, that's definitely high intelligence, especially in the modern economy.

You can make your money and social status that way and eventually "beautify" yourself at least from a 4 or 5 to a strong 6 or 7. At that point, people will accept you socially no matter how awkward you are (unless you are totally off the spectrum).

You could get by with genius social skills (network yourself to a good job and take it from there).

You could also make it with the 9/10 or 10/10 looks as you would have lots of different opportunities in different industries.

But ultimately high intelligence is most resourceful in my opinion.

I think the best combinstion for women is being decent looking and social genius. Being decent loking without the other part has no value.

Also no one cares about a woman’s intelligence...

Genius intelligence.

Good looks. You can always fake intelligence.

High intelligence

I voted for highly intelligent, but that in itself doesn't guarantee success. You actually need to get off your butt and work. This is my problem. I've got a gifted IQ but I'm a lazy ass. I could be more ambitious but I just don't have that type of personality. I am not driven to succeed.

There are two driving factors which determine our decisions: inspiration and desperation. 5% are motivated by inspiration. The other 95% only get up off the couch when we really have to.

Social genius..... I don't know. You're good at networking but whether you're successful or not depends on inspiration or desperation.

Physical attractiveness is transient. You only look good for the first few decades and after that it goes downhill for everyone. I used to be a good-looking girl in my younger years. I got lots of free sushi, offered drinks and got handed parking spots. Nowadays nobody takes a second glance at me. But that's okay because I can probably destroy them intellectually.

That is one thing about getting older which is cool. You get through to people with your mind, your ideas, opinions, actions. When you're younger all they see is a pretty face and don't look much further.

The three

With reference to my previous post, I just remembered something I got away with being older.

I had a patient, an old man, who was sitting in his chair reading. His glasses fell to the ground, underneath his bed and I had to get on all fours to locate his glasses under the bed. So he comments, "Oh, when last was a woman on her knees in front of me?" I just looked up and said dryly, "The last woman in front of you on her knees probably wasn't looking for your glasses." He burst out laughing. Guilty as charged, you naughty bugger! If I was 20 he might not have taken this very well. This is the kind of shit you can get away with as an older woman.
