I'm already smart & it never worked with men. Hence I'm here trying to work on my looks.
You are hanging out with the wrong men.
Find someone clever enough to appriciate your mind and you have a match worth having. After all:0 -
Sue me...I'd rather be attractive.0

I'd rather be smart. I've spent my life unattractive and it certainly makes things (like monogamy) a lot easier ;-)
Lol! I am right there!0 -
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is fleeting.

Smart. As one person said, looks can fade.
Also in the words of Ron White " Ya can't fix stupid".0 -
I guess I'm in the minority, but I would definitely rather be very attractive. A lot of people misjudge me from my appearance without even getting to know me. It sucks.
this in my younger days lady would cluch there purse and go across the road if only they new that i'm more scared of them stupid low confidence. i would take attractive because you would have people telling you how hot you are which would build tones of confidence and be populare. who cares if your smart0 -
I'm already both. Problem solved!0

As for me, I have often thought I would be a lot happier if I were a bit more stupid. I don't know if being more attractive would make me happier, but hey, it's worth a try. Y'know, if someone's offering to wave the wand and all.0 -
I am surrounded by ignoramuses and idiots on a daily basis, and trust they don't make stupidity look the least bit attractive. GIVE ME SMARTS OR GIVE ME DEATH!!!0

Many women got it all wrong.
It took me to get to 30 (and a couple of good honest men) to find out that men will ALWAYS go for looks a.k.a fresh yummy meat. It's encoded biologically. We can learn to accept that but any women registering and trying to lose weight and tracking their calories etc etc on MFP - but then explaining how it is all about the mind and personality is just plain weird and a bit hypocrytical to me.0 -
I am smart already
So now I want to be attractive hehe
Here here!0 -

I am here to get fit and healthy. I am sorry for you if that seems "weird and hypocritical" to you but as you say, you are only 30 and you think you know what all men want. Not even Jung in his seminal work on male psychology (and religious influences over the same covering the past 200 years) could claim that.
I find it discomforting that a young woman would deliberately choose to go for men who were only after "fresh yummy meat" rather than entertain, even fleetingly, that there may be a companion out there who will love her for her mind and her character rather than for her flesh alone.
Long term companionship is all about the mind and the personality. Looks change and mature over time but a sharp mind is a wonderful thing. You may realise that as you get older.
Or not.

Smart...looks will eventually go away while your intellect will help you get through life.0

Since I happen to be both, I think I'd rather not gamble one away. :P0
