Which one of the following super powers would you most like to have?

I chose Telepathy. I think it would easily be the most powerful of powers. Look what telepathy can do:
1) You don't need telekinesis - you just have somebody else move something for you
2) Teleportation? Why? You'll know what's going on wherever you want, and you can avoid danger by looking into the minds of everyone, anyway
3) Super physical strength - I don't need it for anything. And telepathy would allow me to kick the ass of the super strong.
4) Destructive energy blasts - Again, telepathy elimnates the need for that stuff.
5) Shape changing (objects and creatures) - if I'm telepathic the shape changers won't fool me.
6) Super intelligence - I don't need it. I only have to read the minds of the super smart.
7) Knowledge of all languages - this is tricky. Could I read Russian thoughts?
8) Ultra-seductiveness - I wouldn't need this. I could read the minds of all the ladies and know which ones I could score and what to do to score.
My wife is hotter than your wife.

Since, I already have Super Intelligence, Wha ha ha ha...
and a limited power of telepathy, Whe he he he...
I would find the addition teleportation useful, so I could go and visit my friends on Saturn

Danger brings fear, but fear... brings more dangers.

Of the listed powers, most of them have conspicuous effects that may cause people to shun you from fear and bigotry when they see what you can do.
However, two of the powers (in my opinion) are more subtle and potentialy possible for exceptional mortals. The one is Super Intelligence and the other is Ultra Seductiveness.
I think Super Intelligence would be something of a curse. Lesser minds all around you would make you feel like you were living in a zoo, with nobody to really talk to and nobody else capable of understanding some basic (in your mind) principles. Could make a person lonely and frustrated.
That leaves Ultra Seductiveness... to live the dream that most of us have had since we were teenagers.
