You did and you are and that was one of the nicer things said about Leon.
You don't have to justify preferring clean cut men. Me too - in most cases. I thought he looked a little 'shaggy' too - not that I disliked it in this case. I did think the comment about him looking like he just stepped out of the dumpster was a little over the top. That, in my mind, implies dirty.
Again, that person is entitled to his?/her? opinion, but my point - my opinion -is that it was an exaggeration. He (in my opinion) didn't look bad. And if that's what it looks like to have just stepped out of a dumpster, then I'm going to start dumpster diving.
Besides, a little Febreze and a comb and he'll be as good as new.
