No, no, no, no, no. I definitely disagree. Good guys described as
attractive at one point or another (that I remember) are:
Sirius
Cedric
Firenze
James (?)
Lily
Cho (I don't like her, but she is a good guy.)
Fleur
Parvati and Padma
Bill
Charlie, Fred, and George (I think)
Angelina Johnson (I think)
I know I'm forgetting some. Furthermore, the majority of Slytherin
house is supposed to be physically repulsive, although this is
arguably because of the terrible bias, blah de blah de blah.
Wormtail's definitely not good-looking and the description of
Bellatrix (deep circles under her eyes, etc.) doesn't sound
particularly appealing. Tom Riddle was gorgeous, yes, but Voldemort?
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of snake-like red eyes. So, yes. I
don't think good = plain and bad = attractive.
