Best Answer

In the myth Perseus and Medusa, Medusa did not have a petrifying gaze.

She was so hideous in appearance that anyone who looked at her was turned to stone. Perseus uses a polished shield to look at her reflection instead of at her and was able to approach her and cut off her head with a sword.
