as long as the person isn't a complete dumb fuck to be honest only an ugly to average looking person would care about intelligence

It's the whole package, if a girls a dumb shit, I could still find her attractive if she makes up for it in other areas

so an attractive person would never find intelligence important?

no, at least not for the short-term. i know if i was particularly attractive i would care less about the intelligence of members of the opposite sex.

nah, i mean properly attractive (if directed at me)

they want a relationship to feel connected to soemone - they're smart themselves. This can only really occur if they're on the same wavelength.

by the same token i know a lot of attractive people who don't give a shit. (they *tend* to be 'less intelligent' but others are both)

all I'm saying is it's a stupid statement.

is it... is it really?
consider a hideously ugly but self-aware individual on the look out for a potential "mate". would they judge the suitability of the potential mate by their attractiveness? i know if i was this hideously ugly but self-aware individual i wouldn't, because it's hypocritical. (maybe this is a particular inhibition that i have but others don't). i'd look for something else that I can relate to.

sorry for speaking darwinian

I think that necessity would make you lower your standards.
