Does being sexy get you further?

Isn't it a pure and straight forward example of hypocrisy when a former lingerie and fashion model, turned talk show host, does a show about how wrong it is that being sexy or attractive can get you further in life? How can an ex-model possibly take this question seriously? Yet, there it is, right as I am making my morning juice, ( I know that sounds perverted but it was just grapefruit juice) and there she is, mouth agape, totally awe struck by the fact that a plain looking woman got less attention than a hot woman on a Los Angeles street. Yes, I was a little shocked too, I understand that talk show hosts are supposed to stir up controversy but is showing the world that you are oblivious to your own life and history a good way to do it? A super model, walking around berating people for objectifying beautiful women is like an orange farmer yelling at people for drinking orange juice, stupid and hypocritical. I am no stranger to the fact that I live in the state of hypocrisy but here most people just say stupid things behind your back, rarely do they go and do it on national television. Making millions of dollars on your body and then telling people to seek inner beauty, right, Buddha you ain't there sister. Now people will tell you that these ladies make it because of their drive and ambition but you can say that until your lips fall off but until Victoria's Secret starts parading ladies of a slow glandular persuasion down their new, more structurally stable runways, it's still just a big steaming load of dookie. There is no way that these girls make it on drive alone and then they have they have the gall to act like their bodies had less to do with making it than their pure urge to be famous. Right, they can go on thinking that if it makes their lives easier, myself, I will go on looking at hot women and thinking not one smidgen about their IQ score. At least I can say, with a clear conscience, I am no hypocrite, now let me see you in the pink number with the laces there Einstein.

I think that too many people equate dumb with sexy. Personally, and I'm not speaking of attraction here, I can't see a person as good looking if they are dumb. It doesn't matter how much beauty others see in this person, I simply cannot see it. But sadly, a very smart person with a wonderful personality can still be ugly simply due to physical merits.

Any truly deep person will tell you that almost everybody is ugly in enough ways that you shouldn't want to be seen with them.

Plastic surgery for all ugly smarties would seem ideal, but it seems to lower intelligence dramatically, instantly.

If it came to the point where I needed to decide between the good and bad of both of these scenarios, I would rather hang out with ugly smart people than plastards.
