Summary
This quote sarcastically suggests that the term "narcissist" is often used to describe someone who is physically more attractive than oneself. It implies that people might dismissively label others as narcissists based solely on their physical appearance, indicating that the concept of narcissism may be shallow and reduced to superficial judgments. However, it should be noted that true narcissism refers to a personality disorder characterized by an excessive need for admiration and self-centeredness, unrelated to physical attractiveness.
