are you sure you're a guy? seems like the kind of thread a woman would start. men don't bother ourselves with such thoughts.

the heart wants what the heart wants.

why can't you have both ? why does one need to choose ?

Functional AND Attractive, if you desire this, then you too much be Functional and Wealthy.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by FBS: 12:01pm On Aug 04, 2009
Both.
If she is functional then she is attractive (and vice versa).
Beauty they say. . . is in the eyes of the beholder.

A functional wife is also an attractive wife. Maybe you should have said facially attractive wife.

there are a lot of things i look for  in a woman and beauty is the list, A woman is not worth it if she can not keep the home no matter how beautiful she may be. attraction is totally different from functionality a wife most be functional in all aspect, she may not be perfact but functional is ok for me, attraction can wait for later.

since when did being attractive become a handicap?

what sops an attractive woman from having all the things listed for the functional?
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by emmydee(m): 12:41pm On Aug 04, 2009
Ur wife will eventually become whatever u want her to become.

Therefore, i want both, but just about 70% of the B lady will be enough. She will learn d rest.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by ashaby(f): 12:59pm On Aug 04, 2009

Seems u dont know what exactly u want. ALL women are beautiful, depends on the angle @which u view them. Being 'functional' sounds perfunctory dont u think. Your post kind of suggests that u want a 'trophy' wife cos datz wat me thinks.

dont believe a lie o boy. this is the undoing of many men. you are struggling with becoming what you want to be why do you think it is easy making women becoming what you want them tio become?

you believe that you can at your own peril.

For me, I would prefer a FUNCTIONAL WIFE.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by Oluschenco(m): 1:11pm On Aug 04, 2009
Functional of course! Beauty/attractive is abstract, so far the functional wife is SuperB in bed, nothing more.

Wha you mean not really beautiful?? i'm no way gan settle with a horrible looking lady just because she would be good with kids and cooks well undecided.

Da functional wife would be great but she must look presentable.

For da attractive one thats life signing a death sentence.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by Fredique(m): 1:24pm On Aug 04, 2009
Funtionality is priority. If you have functionality and attractiveness in one person, good and fine, but as this is not always the case. I'll choose functionality. No use marry an extremely pretty wife who is 'bitchy'.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What the eye of the beholder values is what it will see. What you also consider as 'functionality' may also differ. I value intelligence, kindness, resourcefulness, honesty, witty sense of humor, peace and a diplomatic approach to issues. Any lady who does not strike me as having those will get my cold shoulder from day one no matter how 'awesome' her physical attributes may seem to be.

I think you want to marry someone you wish to
live the rest of your life with and not vetting an
applicant's credentials for a position in the ministry.
Bedwise, that wife will only be as satisfying to you
in proportion to her happiness with you.

are you trying to say attractive woman are specialist in lavishing money
anyway,if your attractiveness cant earn a man anything other than commendation and maybe jealousy,then its bullshit

many people believe a lie. most beautifull people mind their bizness and keep a very peacefull. it is the wowo as that comedian call them people with insecuriues problems that gives you more headache in life.

i dont know why the idea of seeing an ugly person first and last thing daily will appeal to anybody
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by dROC1: 2:23pm On Aug 04, 2009
call me shallow but from experience. I will go for the Attractive one, anyday anytime.

Why?
Because If you have a "Fat Ugly Mama" at home that scores a mere B+ in bed then you're gonna be cheating on her(eventually).Who wants to be seen with a woman who looks like his mom in public(maybe even tying wrapper everywhere).

Whereas an attractive wife that makes your heart skip a beat everytime you see her and score all A's in bed will keep your love life sparkling.
Nannies and House-helps can do all the chores o jare (do you want my pretty wife to break the nails I just paid for?)
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by dayokanu(m): 2:37pm On Aug 04, 2009
I would go for an attractive one. As long as the money she spends is hers and not mine.

Why would I need a functional one thats not attractive? and with a B+ in bed which would make a man rather watch TV than be in the room rocking and destroying the bed.

grin  grin

@ OP, u still aint said a thing about shesi's question though ur username doesnt look like a female's craft.

@ topic,
nna, i would go with the functional one.
reasons:
1. "all that glitters is not gold .  .  ."
2. physical beauty fades (that's why there are now wonder-bras, facial lifts, tit-jobs, ass-lifts,  grin and all other forms of  surgery: plastic or leather  tongue)
3. what do you want from your WIFE when you're fifty?
4. B+ may not be 'the desired excellent' grade in bed, but who says she cant be thot new tricks  wink (singing: we take it higher till we sitting on top .  .  .)   
5. 'Bedmatics' is a science that can be learned particularly since she's got great managerial skills. 
cheesy

A functional wifey is 101% desirable to an attractive one.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by Tcrack(m): 4:04pm On Aug 04, 2009
Functional anyday, anytime.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by sirt1(m): 4:12pm On Aug 04, 2009
@ Poster,

I will go for the two: functional and attractive.
Re: Would You Prefer A Functional Wife Or An Attractive One ? by Nobody: 4:30pm On Aug 04, 2009
If she's not functional, then she's not attractive
