Ummmmm......lets see I'm pretty dense when it gets to relationship and stuff like that but I've always been interested about how both sex's behavior and brains work! Guys are quite the hunters and you kinda can't blame them, biologically they're visual that's how they're created and that's how there's that part of their brain that goes
"TINK" look here's a hot chick with such beautiful long legs passing by, look at that long silky hair lol Girls on the other hand are quite verbal, auditory and emotional and that's also biological. That's why you find girls go crazy over a guy with a British accent or very gentle man offering her his seat, simple stuff like that matters lol
I won't really go on my way and say yes guys would be attracted, or no they won't I'm not a guy and they think differently and I still think it's subjective! But according to psychological studies and survey's almost
78% of people would judge by looks first before they get to know the personality. And men tend to do that more when it comes to women, as I said it's proven they are visual and they have this thing in their hormones and brain that makes them do so!
You could check this fun article explains quite a bit of what I'm saying:

But that's because they...will I think...won't really take such a relationship or choice to further steps. I mean female and male brains do have their differences but they are still alike. If a man were to take a relationship seriously as in you know it's time to be responsible and get married, or for some people common law, then looks won't be the only thing he'd be concerned about. For those who took the high school course of family studies there are steps to get that
"one" that both men and women would think a like for and definitely looks won't be the only thing. At least that's what 'd like to think too.
There's care, friendship, love, communication, conflict resolution, family, reputation for some people, culture, interests and dislikes, and the list goes on!
That's why girls who wear long dresses and cover up or don't show a lot of their body could be considered under the category of plain. But to be honest I'm one of these girls, I cover up and I'm not that hot I think I'm your typical average girl and I like it ^-^ If we go back to history women have always wore long dresses, a famous example would be the women tennis uniforms in the 1800s or the early 1900s. Until now we still have girls who don't like to show off their bodies for some men's pleasure or just to follow fashion trends. There are some Asians who stick to that, people from religious backgrounds like Orthodox, Coptic, or more in Christianity that I can't remember. There are religious Jews that I've seen cover up. Also, Muslim girls who wear long and the head scarf. I mean such girls do eventually force a guy to think of that girls personality rather than her looks or body first. That doesn't mean they're not beautiful. For me I see myself very self worthy and in the end it's all about confidence! You can't expect people to see a girl beautiful and attractive if she can't see that in herself first, or at least if one is good enough they'd try to help her figure that out.
And since I'm a girl I always believe in the beauty of the inner soul lol Sounds cliche but I try to follow the so famous English idiom
"Never judge a book by its cover", which is hard but I try. But unfortunately in our generation, media isn't much of a help when it comes to this. I mean look at the cover of all these celebrity magazines,or how women dress in music videos or related stuff. It keeps sending messages,
look at me,
look at me,
look at how hot I am! Not see through me -_- Which gives the guys what they want to see and tells the girls how they should look and dress like *Sigh*
We girls tend to be less confident of ourselves. Am I too fat? Oh yes I've gained weight! Honestly I tend to do that every now and then lol Or am I too tall? Oh God no I will absolutely fail that test and that pisses me off the most when some girls say that because they end up getting really good marks >.>
I don't think anybody is perfect or excellent, you can't say she has an excellent personality, humans aren't perfect we make mistakes that's how we learn. I could see maybe you're saying having a good, attractive personality instead. But I don't think I've seen an ugly girl that would be so rejected. From my point of view, I believe if such a girl actually exists and she has beauty taken from her then there must be something that will replace that taken beauty. I believe this impacts anybody; if there is something taken away from them then there is something else given to them that makes them special. Like some guys here say they'd go for a girl that is dump but has the looks. She has the looks that makes her acceptable. If a girl doesn't look good but has a personality then she has the behavior that shines. But she of course can try to make herself look good, not fancy but good, what kinda of girl wouldn't want to!
In the end , I think balance is always the key :')
