Who was the most beautiful man in the ancient Greek myths?
I will give a reversed myth of different charismas and its fun to read!The son of Aphrodite Priapos… Mythology says that Hra hated the goddess of beauty and in order to take revenge she cursed Aphrodite’s pregnancy and feature baby to be very ugly.Priapos when he was born he was extremely ugly but he had the biggest thing in the planet! So all women and even Olympians run under his …tools and loved the beauty of his.. thing.Now if you wish to read about who was beautiful, you dont have to search by those terms (beauty). Only try to find which mortals taken by the gods and fed Ambrosia… those are beautiful.An example of a man taken by the gods and was a lover, is Pelopas with Poseidon, gay relationship.You will find more women taken by gods, but there are fiew men taken by gods too.3 characteristics made men beautiful in ancient Hellas. Apple cheeks, red nice lips and beautiful balanced body. They believed the external beauty reflects and internal spirit of all. A beautiful person has a wonderful spirit.Today it is vise verse actually…. Beauty stereotypes create lots of ….decline and racism.
