Question: If Edward Cullen is supposedly so beautiful, then why is he described as "ugly!?"!?
I mean, seriously:

Bronze hair and Gold eyes!.!.!.!?
He looks like one of those Greek Gods!.!.!.Adonis!?!?!?
He's cold and hard as rock!.


Maybe it's just Bella who sees him as beautiful!. Or Stephenie Meyer doesn't know what the hell she's talking about!. Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I'd take the gold eyes over those occasions when his eyes are black!.!.!. because in normal people who aren't OMGsoperfect Mary Sue vampires that suggests they've OD'd!. Not to mention how much dark bruises under the eyes would stand out against stark white skin!. And I really have trouble imagining that kissing and hugging and having sex with someone who was cold and hard as marble would be pleasant!.

"And those Greek God statues aren't all that good looking!."
There's certainly one area they tend to be lacking in!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Here is where it is important to know that we are reading from Bella's perspective!. What I think is beautiful may not be the same as what you think is beautiful!. Obviously, the same goes with you and Bella/Stephenie Meyer!. It is a matter of opinion (which, obviously you have a hard time understanding, based on your "Stephenie Meyer doesn't know what the hell she's talking about" statement)!. Since we only get Bella's perspective when, we only get her opinion!.

Maybe you should take some time to remember the old idiom: "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The gold/bronze thing is not particularly attractive- and not something you'd associate with beauty!. 'Greek God' is used far too much, for anyone who is vaguely good-looking!. You have to have the right nose and facial structure to be called that- classically handsome!.
Cold and hard as rock is not attractive!Www@QuestionHome@Com

How do those traits translate as ugly!?

Bronze and gold are colours of glory!.

Greek Gods are always painted or sculpted with bodies of perfection!.

Marble is cold and hard, yet still beautiful!.

Stephanie Meyer's physical descriptions are there to help your imagination, I can imagine a very beautiful Edward!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Personally I don't think guys with red hair are good looking!. Its Bella's point of view that's what she likes and thinks is beautiful!. It's all a matter of opinion!. When I'm reading a book and I don't like what the guy looks like I always just imagine that they look like my husband!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

skin of floorless marble, eyes like honey, auburn hair!. how is that ugly!? what would you describe as beautiful if that doesn't appeal to you!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Seriously how can anyone say he is ugly!?!?!?!?!?
He is the sexiest guy ever! I mean bronze and gold!? That is a HOT combination! And besides what's wrong with the greek gods!? They weren't ugly :(Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think I'd go with the latter: You and/or Stephenie Meyer don't know what the hell you're talking about!.

Edit: Haha! yeah I think it's you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
