    It is believed the marriage between Petrus Gonsalvus and Lady Catherine may have partially inspired the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast.

      How so? He was just unusually hairy, how does that make it surprising that anyone would marry and have kids with him?

        Lots of guys have trouble finding companionship just looking average. This guy got crazy lucky.

          It’s usually not the looks being average why those guys have trouble.

            I mean, it’s obviously not everything, but being physically attracted to your partner is important for a lot of people

              You say that as if “below average” looking people can’t be physically attractive to someone, and as if people universally agree on an attractiveness ranking rather than having personal tastes.
