A formal education is not a prerequisite but somebody needs to have some ambition and a plan for the future. Just wanting to get married and have kids is not a plan.
I like both but I would have to lean more towards education just bc I find it super attractive and a big turn on when guys are well educated and use it well.
Looks >>> educationI've met some "educated" women that weren't very smart. If a woman is going to be intelligent, I'd prefer she be emotionally and financially intelligent.
Personally I look for a happy medium where if it's only about the next question would be can they carry a normal intelligent conversation. Sometimes good looks can make a person ugly if they are ignorant and/or shitty personality. Just my opinion
depends if I'm after long term relationships or just a quick hookup. Long term it has to be a balance between looks and personality. But education or IQ is irrelevant to me, it's more about if the girl is kind and fun

Like women, all guys are different. For this guy, that matters. Personally I don't really care that much about it, within reason lol. I don't want someone that knows nothing and has common sense. But beyond that, that's not something that is a "turn on" romantically.
imagine the majority of guys would rather date an average looking girl with average intelligence and a decent personality. if it meant she didn't have any financial debt and a degree that may or may not get used in the future.
I notice most of the women with advanced degrees are narcissistic about it which is a massive turn off. All other things being equal education is attractive but it’s not that attractive and all other things are rarely equal.

Education? Yes. Degrees? No. But appearance also matters.
I don't care about either. I prefer a guy thats funny and likes to have a good time
I see it like there are certain minimum standards for who I date.
IQ has to be a minimum of 120 (I've got a 138 IQ, under 120 and I get irritated)
Education is relative to age, but I want to see at least an associate's degree by 25, preferably a bachelor's (I had my masters by then)
Minimum of a 5 in the looks deptMinimum of a 7 in the bedroomFemale partners should be submissive, male partners excessively dominant.
I personally wouldn’t care what kind of education my potential partner has.
I care about Education, beauty is skin deep, and in the eyes of the beholder

Def looks education especially today means little. I care about intelligence a lot but looks is kinda more essential tbh. But not are essential id say

Neither beats character. I think our generation is finally learning this lesson the hard way.
I care more about looks; sorry.
But there are better men than I that prefer education!
Not looking to pay off someones else's school loans.
I guess I will choose looks.
I need some degree of both, but I can't stand stupid women.
Most guys care more about looks, but it can be a good way to avoid gold diggers.
In women, looks, I don't care much about education being a factor in me being attracted to them, I prefer intelligence and a good work ethic
more intelligence, wisdom than education.
Education is not unequivocally related to intelligence.
