Every article I read about the kid has to include some verbiage about how “goodlooking” or “attractive” he is. Whaaaat??? Am I missing something??? He’s just an average looking kid, with buck teeth and his dads nose. Certainly not worth taking a second look at, IMHO. If her were not royalty, would people still go on and on about how “goodlooking” he is?? Anyone agree? Disagree? ---

Agreed. A dork with a title and money. His mom was a MILF though! ---

Oh god thank you, a woman resistant to his charms and looks, thank you thank you! I agree with you also ---

To me it depends on the picture. In some pictures I think he’s good looking. In others he looks too much like his father. ---

OK, it appears that I’ll be the first to say – Prince William is very cute! I don’t think he looks a bit like his father, and he seems mature for his age (um, according the rags. But we have to give him credit for not throwing up in public yet). ---

I think it’s cause the royal family’s men of late haven’t been that great looking so people are so happy there is finally an average, decent looking one. All three of Elizabeth’s sons are bald and toothy and bland and there’s no need to go into Charles’ ears so Wills and Harry are a nice change. They look like any guys you would know, not inbred royalty. It will be interesting to see if they inheirit the baldness gene. ---

I think that he was good looking when he was about 17 or 18. Before and after those two years though, I’d say he’s average looking. I don’t really see it anymore; I used to think he was cute, but now I think he’s not nearly as attractive as my boyfriend 🙂 ---

He’s kinda cute, but I think the money and power are what make him REALLY attractive to some people. ---

I think both Wales boys are very good looking-they take after Diana. Funny that Charles, Andy and Edward all turned out so homely-Philip was VERY handsome in his day. ---

I’ll be the next one to say that I think Prince William is hot. And tall, which is a big thing for me. Much better looking than Harry… I’ve always felt a little sorry for Harry for being nowhere near as good looking as his (half-)brother. 😉 ---

Harry looks EXACTLY like his dad (the Prince) and William looks EXACTLY like his mom. I think he’s cute. I feel sorry for him. He doesn’t want to be in the Royalty Show. He’s entertaining the idea of moving to the States. Poor kid. He was born into a clusterfuck of mammoth proportions. He’s pretty cute, though. ---

I’ve noticed he’s losing his hair at the top. I agree with the person who said he was very good looking at 17 or 18. I guess his appeal is he’s better looking than the previous generation. His first cousin Peter Philips is much better looking than him. I think Harry looks just like that polo player who is not his real father. ---

He’s a bit of a mixture - he’s got his mum’s eyes, which help a lot, but also the distinctive loose mouth and low cheekbones of all the Windsors, which don’t. Harry? He looks like someone from a different family altogether. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-thinks-prince-william-is-a-hottie-not-me/183643.md?page=2)
