Money/Power vs. Appearance - Which is really the most shallow?

Featured Replies

Both are evolutionary adaptations, neither has anything to do with being shallow. My advice is to marry someone both rich and attractive.

 

No man, weren't you following? That's sick and wrong :)

Yeah, I was going with 'why can't I have both?' but Wrath stole my post.

 

However, according to Kaftan, hooking up for money is sick and wrong while hooking up for looks is noble and selfless, so hooking up for money and looks ought to be just okay.

Ah, I see, the good ol' (-1)+1=0 scheme. Works every time.

 

In your face Kaftan! :lol:

I'm not shallow; I'm True Neutral!

Your logic is flawed. If you take a bowl of icecream and a mix it with motor oil, the result will not be a neutral but largely edible composite, it will be a toxic abomination.

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

 

"I suppose outright stupidity and complete lack of taste could also be considered points of view. "

So marrying for money/power and appearance is like eating ice cream with motor oil? Got it.

First of all, it's sick and wrong.
On the contrary, my wide-eyed socialist friend. It is both right and perfectly natural. Effort invested pays off, as it should. And the proportion of people who are both rich AND beautiful just by chance is small enough to disregard in our eminently rigorous disquisitions.

 

 

 

Which is basicly fraud.
Yeah, pretty much. But you are also lying your ass off to score, most of the time. Unless your opening line is something like "Hi, I'm Kaftan. My most remarkable trait is my smelly feet. I can also shatter glass with my snores."

 

Nobody said anything about fair play...

If you're Steve-O, sure.

Can I be Johnny Knoxville?

 

He's way cooler.
