<ahem>  It does - just not CSS stylesheets, but a variant of it's own 
called LynxStyleSheets.  Of course, all that lets you do is set how various
elements are displayed on the screen (like h1:bold:red:yellow, would display
h1's in red on yellow if you have a colour terminal, or just plain bold if
you don't).

You can specify them on the command line, using an environment variable,
using a <link rel=style href="somefile"> on your page[1], in the main
config file, or in a seperate file pointed to by the config file.

It supports class="" as well, so that <h1 class=red> can be displayed in
a different style than <h1>.  

It's more than Netscape seem to be able to manage...

[1] But not remotely, the stylesheet has to be a local file. 
    It's being worked on...
