				Honest opinions...
			 
			
		
		
		Do you believe that with an excellent personality, the most unattractive girl in the world can get any guy she wants (given that she has all the time in the world to make him fall for her)?

		 It's possible, as long as there aren't self-centered guys who choose girls based on their looks. But I've found that there aren't that many guys like that and you can find a lot that go for personality.

		 Yes except that it kind of has to be done via anonymous means first such as instant messaging/texting because humans instinctively judge the moment you see appearance. Even if you aren't a judgemental person the brain forms thoughts/ideas in your head for you.

		I think with the right amount of time, she'd be able to win over almost any guy (even if they choose off of looks) but tbh.. I'm pretty sure there are some people out there that JUST want looks anyway and are concerned with that so maybe not ANY guy but probably 99%.  
That is, also not every guy taking into account sexual orientation, hehe.

 Yeah, that's true as well. But perhaps she could overcome that original judgement? :/ 
I mean, maybe with a good amount of time..?

		I agree, Afshan. 
I think when girls blame their looks for not being able to get a guy, it's just because they don't want to face the fact that they either need to fix their personality or they're just not the guy's type.
 
..and yes, obviously I'm only talking about straight men..

		 The most unattractive girl in the world? Personality is key, but if she's the most unattractive girl in the world or anywhere near that category then good luck. A key requirement is two people need to be physically attracted to each other. It doesn't have to be overwhelming attraction but there has to be a physical connection as well as an emotional one.  
 
Same goes the other way (to perhaps a lesser extent)...if a girl has no personality/ethics...personally I wouldn't care if she was the hottest or most beautiful girl in the world I wouldn't want her. She wouldn't be beautiful she'd be ugly.

 No, I don't think so.
 
...and that does not necessarily mean the guy is 'shallow' or anything.

		 Why are you all lying? 
 
Of course not... the most unattractive women in the world can't get any man she wants because looks subconsciously play a large role in one's perception of their personality. 
 
People who say personality is everything live in a dream world...

		 I love how the positive answers are from girls and the honest answers are from guys.. 
 
But I also think that the guys are taking this a little more literal than the girls. 
Obviously I'm not talking about a 600 pound woman with a beard and a mustache.  
I just couldn't figure out a way to get everyone to think on the same level of "unattractiveness  ". 
 
To me, unattractive just means very plain.  
Not the kind of girl everyone stares at because she's so ugly, 
but not the kind of girl guys would stare at because she's good looking, either. 
 
--again, this has nothing to do with what I think of myself... haha

 Well that's not the  most unattractive girl in the world then, is it?
 
But to answer your question, no. No unattractive girl can get any man she wants. It goes the other way around too.

 The guys in this thread are just looking at the implicit detail of the description "most unattractive girl" and are brushing aside the fact that she could not get a guy because of the way you worded it. 
 
I get that but if the girl is merely plain looking she can easily get a guy. Personally, I've seen many couples together that don't have the most attractive girl yet somehow managed to work out for them. 
 
I think it's possible, and even if there's an unattractive girl who can't find a decent looking guy, she could just as easily find an unattractive guy interested in her.

 She may not be able to get  any man she wants but she could get a man, that is possible.

 Well obviously any girl can get *a* man... but say an extremely good looking girl with an average personality and an "unattractive" girl with a great personality (ie. sense of humor, kind, laid back, easy to talk to, etc.) were to compete for the same man's affection... 
 
..who is he most likely to choose?

 That is entirely dependent on the guy himself and how he views girls and what he may want out of the relationship. If that guy himself decides to choose looks and attraction over personality then he'll obviously go for the good looking girl, but I doubt that relationship would be the best and he'd soon find out her personality sucks. But if the guy wants a good relationship and great personality out of a girl, then he would choose the "unattractive girl" over the good looking one. So like I said, it's not impossible to find those kind of guys today in society.
