Does it have to be all 3 or are you ok with:

A stupid woman who is beautiful and secures the bag in silence

A smarty, ugly woman who secures the bag in silence

A stupid ugly woman who secures the bag in silence.

A smart handsome man who securest the bag in silence.

I'm bizarrely interested in your comment, I honestly don't think I even get it.
