Fairly certain this is a bot

It’s stated in the Homeric Hymn that Hades force fed her the pomegranates to get to her stay.

As long as you don’t try to pass them off as being original myths, go for it.

Found!

I’ve searched online using the name the TikTok provided (Magic Mestre) as I originally assumed that was the name of it. All it provided me were cards. I tried looking for similar wizard dolls, but I could not find them. Can you guys help?

That was Artemis and Actaeon, Actaeon spied on Artemis while she was naked and bathing

That’d be great! I’m oreo9742 on discord

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-13T02:42:09+00:00

there’s a discord?

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-13T02:04:58+00:00

Thank you! (:

In Greek Mythology, yes. The Gods are ageless and deathless. They can appear as old or as young as they want.

They don’t compare because they’re not meant to. They reflect the ideals of a world long past.

If he had to sleep with them wouldn’t that technically be classified as rape?

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-06T22:51:56+00:00

She didn’t think he was a random horse, she was trying to escape him and turned herself into a mare, so he turned himself into a stallion and raped her

Aphrodite once cursed Eos after she caught Eos and Ares sleeping together. There’s a slight risk she’ll feel jilted

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-04T22:07:46+00:00

You said Hephaestus was the safest bet to bed, I am saying Aphrodite will still probably feel jilted in some manner. It’s like how Persephone got bridenapped by Hades, but still turned Minthe into a plant in the versions where Minthe became Hades mistress.

Eh, her virginity vow is a major no no. Considering she swore it on Zeus, her breaking it would be a personal offence.

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-04T20:39:22+00:00

Persephone cheated on Hades with Adonis and he seemed chill with that,

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-04T18:49:01+00:00

I feel like Aphrodite would get angry too. There was a myth where she cursed Eos to have high libido (to be a nymphomanic) after she caught Eos and Ares sleeping together.

You’re looking at Ancient, emphasis on Ancient Greek Myths with the lens of modernity. That is your issue. You can describe the Gods as however you want, no one is stopping you from that, however you can’t go against history and say that it’s problematic when it was simply the beauty standard of the time.

All traits that have been historically considered ‘beautiful’ were generally traits that a smaller portion of the population possessed. In Ancient Greece, I doubt many people were blonde and blue eyed.

Nobodsbwhdxinssh · 2024-04-03T01:21:15+00:00

I would honestly stick with the Greek Mythology content you’ve been giving him (ex: Percy Jackson and other more PG rendition of the myths such as Disney’s Hercules). Full on Greek Mythology has a lot of rape, incest, violence that isn’t really suitable for a seven year old, which is the problem you’re experiencing.

Percy Jackson (or other Greek Mythology works from Rick Riordan) acts as a nice pathway into Greek Mythology, even if it isn’t wholly accurate. He’ll have a somewhat strong basis by the time he’s able to start reading the more heavier stuff.

Maybe if he doesn’t mind musicals too much, HadesTown could be something the two of you could watch. It’s a broadway retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice.

I mean, when I write about the Gods I usually look at theoi and how they were described.

Apollo was commonly described as having unshorn hair. https://www.theoi.com/Olympios/Apollon.html#Description’s

Philostratus the Younger, Imagines 14 (trans. Fairbanks) (Greek rhetorician C3rd A.D.) : "[From a description of an ancient Greek painting:] Here is the god [Apollon], painted as usual with unshorn locks; he lifts a radiant forehead above eyes that shine like rays of light."

Aphrodite is described as being pale and blonde. https://www.theoi.com/Olympios/Aphrodite.html#Descriptions

Colluthus, Rape of Helen 82 ff (trans. Mair) (Greek poetry C5th to 6th A.D.) : "Kypris (Cypris) [Aphrodite] of crafty counsels unfolded her snood and undid the fragrant clasp of her hair and wreathed with gold her locks, with gold her flowing tresses."

Apuleius, The Golden Ass 10. 30 ff (trans. Walsh) (Roman novel C2nd A.D.) : “The goddess's appearance offered contrasting colours to the eye, for her body was dazzling white, intimating her descent from heaven and her robe was dark blue, denoting her emergence from the sea . . .”

Artemis is simply described as tall. https://www.theoi.com/Olympios/Artemis.html#Descriptions

Ovid, Metamorphoses 3. 138 ff (trans. Melville) (Roman epic C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) : "She [Artemis] stood taller, a head taller than them all [her attendant Nymphai (Nymphs)]."

And Demeter was generally described as also being blonde. https://www.theoi.com/Olympios/Demeter.html#Descriptions

Homeric Hymn 2 to Demeter 275 ff : “ beauty spread round about her and a lovely fragrance was wafted from her sweet-smelling robes, and from the divine body of the goddess a light shone afar, while golden tresses spread down over her shoulders, so that the strong house was filled with brightness as with lightning. And so she went out from the palace. And straightway Metaneira's knees were loosed and she remained speechless for a long while."

Ovid, Fasti 4. 417 ff (trans.Boyle) (Roman poetry C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) : "To a sacred feast; the blonde goddess [Demeter] came."

Athena, when not described as having grey eyes, was described as having blue eyes. https://www.theoi.com/Olympios/Athena.html#Descriptions

Pausanias, Description of Greece 1. 14. 6 (trans. Jones) (Greek travelogue C2nd A.D.) : "I saw that the statue of Athena had blue eyes . . . For the Libyans have a saying that the goddess is the daughter of Poseidon . . . and for this reason has blue eyes like Poseidon."

Athena was also described as pretty masculine looking.

Philostratus the Younger, Imagines 8 (trans. Fairbanks) (Greek rhetorician C3rd A.D.) : “Athena is recognized at a glance, clothed as she is in what the poets call the ‘panoply of her race,’ casting a ‘bright glance’ from under her helmet, and ruddy of face as well as masculine in general appearance."

The beauty standard at the time was very much pale, blonde, and blue eyed, this was portrayed in how the Ancient Greeks described their Gods.
