In modern day society some people place a lot of stock on peoples appearance. However to contrast that there are many people who believe that it is the personality inside that really counts. I myself like to think that it is the personality that counts however I have been known to be vain, patronising, shallow and down right stupid. This, I gather means that my personality is not desirable. If I was better looking though would that compensate for that? Could I count on the shallowness of other people to make friends and generally be popular?
Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Colin Farrell and Keanu Reeves. How many guys here would KILL to have their looks, their talents and their personality? I know I would love to be just like them. However making idols out of celebrities is arguably one of the shallowest things you can do. It is however undeniable that the before mentioned celebs have girls (and some guys) falling over themselves to catch a glimpse of them. Looks can change everything in your world but is this a strength of society? Is it a good thing that anyone can live a rich and full life despite their qualifications and so on, or is this a horrible failing in which many hard working and educated people get overlooked?
On the other side of the coin many people make livings simply by voicing their thoughts and feelings. However it's not as common. Most people who have a good personality are those who work regular jobs with the rest of us but don't have Halle Berry for a girl friend. In my opinion many celebrities would do well to have a "normal" boyfriend. Is the reason that celebrity marriages rarely last because you can't have the looks and the personality?
I don't know the answers to any of these questions but what I do know is we are living in a very materialistic age in which big boys want their big toys and big girls want their big jewels. If we each like our pretty things are we all looking for a pretty partner and personality can be damned? I want to believe that a personality counts but I just don't know.

Shame on you!! :P
You were on the right-track before-hand, when you weren't content with spending hundreds-of-pounds on clothes, just for that tiny, little brand-name that sits on your sleeve, or wherever.
You're looking at £1,200-a-year - just on CLOTHES!!
Is it really worth it? No.
You shouldn't care what other people think. If they do not like you because of the way you dress, then perhaps they're so-shallow they're not worth knowing at all...?
You. You. YOU. What YOU want to buy. What YOU are happy to wear. That's all that matters! Don't let other people take-control!
Have you not seen Fight Club? I suggest you put-aside some of that money to spend £15 on the DVD, then! That film will awaken you to all you need to know.

appearance or what's inside?
with regards to mcdonalds burgers, definitely appearance, cos you don't want to know what's inside

I wouldn't call her ugly. Sure, she's no buffy, and she's quite big, but as oldish women go you couldn't really say she's ugly...

True but i would still go okay looks and a good personality rather than stunning looks with a boring personality.

Jeez, stop going on about internal organs andblood vessels. Definitely on the outside, though you may wish to consider looking into what's inside if your sex life is frequent.
I just want to say that also what appears to be on the inside isn't allways the truth. Some people are fake.
Okay we are not talking Dawn French ugly but just in between, not too stunning but okay overall looks.
With regard to the original post, I think I woyld have to opt for good looks in a women. Think about it lads - who would you prefer to wake up next to in the morning - Dawn French or Sarah Michelle Gellar? Sure, the ugly one (Dawn French to anybody thats a bit slow) may have a great personality but as I am not blind and probably a very shallow person I would prefer looks. Sorry.
