Yeah I was gonna say that. He was famously single his entire life and is speculated to be one of the first historical examples of an asexual and aromantic person.
They’re not fictional, they’re mythical. Here’s the difference between reality, fiction, and myth: Fiction is made out of the rearranged parts of reality. Myth is made out of fiction that people thought was important. And reality is made out of myth that people took too literally.

I can’t be the only one that read “aromatic person” instead of “aromantic person”.
He was born in the 17th century, everyone had quite the aroma back then
sniff sniff
atleast you’re not alone.
He’s definitely not the first historical example. Artemis and Narcissus were aroace
Narcissus was not aroace, that’s slapping modern ideals on what’s literally an aesop about living up your own arse.
Hestia and Athena, definitely though. And Tesla.
It’s not the same though, those are fictional characters. I know a real person made them, but still, it’s not the same

True, but I didn’t say he was the first, I said “one of the first”
oh damn that’s sick if he was! pretty cool ace representation
