It’s an imaginary character there’s no consensus on how he was supposed to look…
He’s whatever you picture in your head, and the story obviously says he’s attractive.
What possible answer besides “yes” is there?
It’s like asking if the Road Runner was really smarter than the coyote nothing in any of the stories indicates he wasn’t, so why would anyone answer differently?
The people that insist their interpretation of literature is correct even after authors clarify that they’re reading to far into it?
They’re barely better than tarot card readers.
Go ahead and pass along all their words if you don’t mind.

I wasn’t sure if he was actually beautiful in the story, or he just thought that he was. It was mentioned that he was cursed for being mean to his admirers, which is interesting.

People like you or why the phrase “touch grass” was invented. 🤣😁
I’m asking for people’s thoughts.

Welp
Clearly nothing I said made sense to you
I don’t think this is the thread for you.
