being beautiful doesn't mean you have brains. athleticism is a highly praised attribute. just look at Michael Jordan, Pele, etc. World renown athletes known for being great at what they loved to do

Beautiful people have their lives made (as long as they don't have an IQ of 50). Here's an example: it's nighttime and raining, a person knocks on your door asking to use the telephone. How many would actually let quasimodo in, and how many would let a model in.

Although I think athleticism is much more important, beauty just seems to make you glide through life because so many people are head over heels for you.

Athleticism is a much more honorable attribute, but being beautiful makes your life easier. Just losing a little weight has qualified my feelings on this. Ridiculous, but so many more people (in an obviously higher social class than before) introduce themselves to me at the dog park. Crazy but true.

Depends if ur male or female but if ur a female supermodel, u'd be able to attract pro athletes (ie Gisele + Tom Brady)). On avg, supermodels earn much more $ than most female pro athletes. If i were a guy, tho, the reverse would be true...on avg, male pro athletes earn much more than male models.

I am an athlete. I go to the fields more often than I do anything, so this may sound weird but I would rather have supermodel looks!!!

this is a numbers question, more people born with outstanding good looks than athletic abilities AND over a lifetime, given the studies indicating hiring and other social traits, beauty wins out in the lottery results because humans value visual beauty over body movements.

everyone can see physical beauty, and will treat that person better. studies have shown given equal qualifications the better looking job applicant will be hired. sometimes even if the qualifications are less.

Careers in sports are for the very, very lucky, and athleticism is something you must nurture. Beauty is always visible and people treat you differently. Whether your a model or not.

supermodel. in sports all it takes is one critical injury and your career is over. that could happen in high school.

As long as your athletic ability involves football, basketball, or baseball, you'll be set. Get a lot of money, get a lot of fame, and get a lot of babes.

Model... Who needs to work and get paid when you can marry someone who will work. Even better if they expect nothing other than looking good on thier arm when they go out. Athletes work to hard

If you guys think pro athletes have such a great life, you guys need to look into it more. Most don't make all that much, can't adjust to life after retirement and some have serious brain injuries and die young.

Pinkyyou I'm sorry but if you think people rape other based on looks think again. It's not an attraction thing it's a violence and domination thing.

Definitely beauty- you'll be treated better in your career and be given more opportunities. And people will be more inclined to like you. You can be healthy and fit without being "genetically" athletic.

only vaguely know what I'm talking about with this guy), he had bad morals. Performance doesn't matter in a situation like his. But back to the point, you are often forced to retire because of aging and hence decreased performance, you might still be good, but not as good as you oncewere.

plenty of pretty girls with good character. I've know plenty of reasonable athletes who constantly talk trash, and others who are smart, and their actions reflect such. Really, it gets down to personality, even in sports. Who was that guy Owen who got thrown out for some bad thing he did(Iobviously…

@CS_Graham take Clarence Bass as an example. As a competitive weightlifter, he isn't as great as he used to be, but he still has a 6-pack and plenty of muscle to show at over 70 years of age. Barefoot Ken Bob is in his fifties or sixties and still runs reasonable marathons. It really is a matter…

if you're good enough to be a pro athlete you can earn enough to save for a lifetime in a hurry
