I'm not a mean person, l swear I'm not, but when l see any type of post or content calling a male character from Greek mythology 'bad'... l can't help myself but rant in my head (...and maybe in the hashtags...) and one of these days I'm going to go insane

#Okay rant time baby #I was on Tik tok #And a video was like “Beauty was a curse in ancient Greece... I wonder if young girls were afraid of swans beacuse of Zeus 🥺”#and then another video of the SAME creator replying to a comment who said “Hera and Zeus' marriage is between two consenting adults #But hades and persephone's is not“ (which is true no hate to that guy)#but the creator made a whole ass video like #No you see Zeus and Demeter were married but when they had Persephone she left him and went to the mortal realm #cause she didnt feel safe with her brothers #then Zeus tried to Hera but she didnt want him so Zeus turned into bird bc Hera loved animals and took care of them #Zeus pretended to be injured and Hera believed it because shes a STUPID BITCH #I mean! She was young and naive so she hugged the bird and Zeus transformed into his normal form and violated her #So than Hera was soooo humiliated she had to marry Zeus! Is wasnt her choice!#and l was like #huh???#the whole time #idk abt this #might be just me #but treating greek gods like humand is weird to me #like debating about their sexuality #gving them mental illnesses and trauma and hving headcanons #is kinda weird...#am l saying dont do it? No #but acting like theyre some famouse characters from a series is kinda... idk?#weird? Abnormal? Disrespectful?#idk #just stop treating them like that #its weird #anyways my rant ends here #greek mythology #ancient greek mythology
