This week I set out on a mission to see whether I could find examples of women who are portrayed as both smart AND sexy. I thought of Lara Croft (played by Angelina Jolie), who is basically an attractive, female version of Indiana Jones and saves the world. At the same time, the first Google search result for "Lara Croft Angelina Jolie" is an article about how Angelina Jolie had to go up a bra size to portray Lara Croft, suggesting more emphasis on the "sexy" rather than the "smart" (see article "Angelina Jolie on Filling Lara Croft's Shoes and D-size Cups").
Do you guys think Lara Croft is an example of a woman who is both smart and sexy? Are there other examples of women who are both smart and sexy?
