It is not just beauty alone...It is seen along with intelligence

How about a woman who is beautiful and brainy..Is she dangerous?

Most successful people have been gifted with both!

You cannot mess around with such people!

Is there a doubt? There are three dangerous thing in that sentence for any man.
Women, beautiful, and brainy, any two would be enough for the downfall of powerful men.
Look ay Helen of Troy, Cleopatra, Draupadi, Shakuntala, Etc
 
Dear Prasad ji,

When I saw the title of this thread I was thinking "Has Prasad Ji fallen in love with some Femme Fatale?? Have you?? LOL

Dear Vgane ji,

Being dangerous has nothing got to do with looks or brains.

Its a false notion that a woman with looks and brains is dangerous.BTW these days almost everyone is well educated and well informed both beautiful and not so beautiful women too.

One does not have to be brainy or beautiful to be dangerous

We humans are born with the Arishadvargas(6 enemies)... Kama,Krodha,Lobha,Moha,Mada and Matsarya in varying proportions.These 6 enemies are just instinct and basic instinct is enough to be destructive.

Dear Prasad Ji,

The problem is not with the women..it is with the men who chase after them.

Was Draupadi dangerous?? No!

She was arrogant no doubt like most Kshatriya women of her time..so no big deal but in the real sense she was not dangerous..otherwise she would have never forgiven the person who slayed all her sons.

She wanted justice thats all!

Shakuntala suffered..she was never dangerous.
 
Now Renukaji the forum expert has to enlighten why women like "bad boys". We've already heard about Karna. Who's next? Johnny Depp, Justin Bieber, Ranbir Kapoor, Kamal Hassan?
 
Beauty alone is not dangerous. As Shri Vgane says when it combines with brains it becomes dangerous. But with a heart the above combination can become very constructive and be attractive in a very endearing way

Ok I will talk about Karna..the rest on your list and not really to my liking.

You see Karna is basically a wonderful person at heart but at the same time he is slightly vulnerable..he is searching for something which he is yet to define.

Such individuals are usually passionate and not afraid to speak their mind at the same time possessive and sexy.

If they want something they go get it at any cost..Karna displayed that well.

Now the bad boy part of him is even though he knew he was with the Anti hero Duryodhana still that did not stop him from being loyal and could say buzz off to his own blood.

Very few Indian males can say buzz off to their own blood and support who he wants to.

Blood was not thicker than water for Karna.

So Karna is the ultimate!

BTW I like Edward Scissor Hands...he was not a bad boy but a passionate boy!

I feel the problem is most men cant handle a beautiful and brainy woman.

From my experience I have seen that most beautiful woman who are NOT brainy tend to be manipulative for personal gain but they do not go too far in life cos once the beauty fades they are nothing.

Women who are brainy but NOT beautiful on the other hand tend to be over bearing and domineering...they tend to want to project the image of a Woman of Substance.They do not want to be seen as brainless at any cost. At times they can be ruthless.

But a woman with brains and beauty can totally be herself and she does not have to be manipulative cos she has brains and at the same time she does not have to be overbearing cos she has beauty.

She remains a mystery cos she can switch from beauty mode to brain mode anytime and enjoys the fun cos males tend to drool for something mysterious but in reality not many people might be able to handle her and they call her dangerous!

Dear Sravna,

I strongly disagree!

What has looks and brains got to do with our true nature?

Dear Renuka,

The perception of self is based on our looks and intelligence. That is the reason we see beautiful and intelligent people very confident and mostly overconfident. That is the reason I said unless wisdom is also possessed the beauty brain combination will lead you astray
 
OMG! Why people say beauty is dangerous! I have a very beautiful mom who is a 'sakalakalAvalli' and role model me in many ways!

I admire the beauty of M S amma who spread bhakthi and music all over the globe!

And.......... 'Manthara' in Ramayana story is supposed to be not-so-good-looking!

BTW, Prasad Sir! I guess, you are only amazed and NOT attracted by a cobra! :)

Dear Sravna,

Academic excellence should not be confused with brains.

Many degree holders too are actually quite dumb.

Degrees are not really a measure of intelligence.

I have seen intelligent people who are not educated becos they missed out a chance to study.

A truly intelligent person knows that everything in this world is self limiting and not lasting..beautiful today...not so beautiful tomorrow, able today..disabled tomorrow, intelligent today..dementia tomorrow. By knowing all these we would not let either beauty or brains or both get to our head.

Going by that we all have seen your pics..you yourself are a good looking intelligent person..are you dangerous??

Dear Renuka,

You are missing the main point I am making. What I am saying is you can become blinded by your beauty and intelligence so you need level headedness to be not carried away by it. You can become dangerous because if you are carried away by your beauty and intelligence your thoughts tend to be egoistic.

Thanks for the compliment. Irrespective of beauty or intelligence I constantly strive to maintain level headedness and try to always see the big picture.

1.Women think that men can not handle a beautiful and brainy woman. Perhaps they are happy thinking that way. Beauty can be different from attractiveness to men. Similarly brainy can be different from attractiveness to men.

2. Women who are beautiful but not brainy: they hold their men for sufficiently long to make him a zombie, then quickly loose him and become psychotic with equal speed and ease. For them it is a continuous losing battle against time which takes away their beauty one brick at a time every day at random. They are a pathetic lot. Some times innocence can substitute for brains and there it can win men for ever. It is a different category altogether.

3. Women who are brainy but not beautiful: They are not taken note of in the first place until an opportunity comes and it comes at its own pace. Men prefer a lot of beauty(lies in the eyes of the beholder) and a good amount of brain in a woman so that she is attractive. She should be beautiful enough to make the fellow go mad every time he gets to see her. Beautiful woman knows that she is beautiful and she knows that the man goes mad looking at her. The unsaid part of the whole story is that the man willingly goes mad and is always aware of it. He may make a fool of himself and yet do nothing to stop that.

4. A woman who is reasonably beautiful and is equipped with adequate brains is the rare angel. She is loved with all sincerity, enjoys the freedom to tease, to laugh with, to laugh at, to ferociously demand attention, to punish and yet get away with it, to become a child throwing tantrums, to commit blunders with elan without bothering about the consequences, to be a friend, a philosopher, a guide, a punishing queen and a stupid slave all at once-- every thing in short. All because she remains attractive to her man. As the bard said age does not appear to wither nor custom stale her infinite variety. She just allows herself to be handled by her man and enjoys it too. LOL.

Dear Sravna,

Anyone can get carried away by anything...many people get carried away becos of beauty,academic excellence,lineage,caste,money,power or anything..the problem is EGO that one actually identifies with all these.

Anyone who gets carried away with all these is surely not intelligent enough.

Agreed! It is the average female that actually holds the reins.I have noted that..that average looking Janes with equally average IQ somehow are men's delight becos they are never a threat to him in anyway.
She is his other half who decorates his left side...Parish Krutha Caru Vama Kalevaram.

Most men are Left Brain Hemisphere dominant and most females are Right Brain Hemisphere dominant..that explains the concept of Ardanarishwara well...that we have the opposite sex on the Dominant side of our Brain..that shows that humans need each other to complete the jigsaw puzzle.


Now coming to facts.. most of the while the guys that admire average Janes with average IQs are equally average or extremely intelligent with hopeless looks!LOL


But whatever said and done it is the woman with high IQ and beauty that knows how to handle her whips and handcuffs well..the average Jane just lies on her back!LOL
