    For those who don't know, this is the ancient Greek myth of Pasiphae who banged a bull and as a result gave birth to minotaurs. Because noone knew how to genetics back then.

    Wasn't it because the gods were dicks?

    The Gods weren't dicks, they HAD dicks. And they didn't use them very responsibly. And also Social norms weren't so strict so even goddesses could engage in consensual bestiality without anything bad happening... you know except for the Minotaurs...

    There was just one Minotaur -- it was a proper noun, not a race. But yeah, Pasiphaรซ did the deed and gave birth to him because her husband had promised to sacrifice a special bull to Neptune and refused to honor the bargain, so Neptune made her fall in love with the bull with sexy results.

    Yeah her son Minotaur went on a rampage and began killing people in their kingdom so much so that they had to lock him in a maze. So yes, cursed.

    It was because gods were dicks, yes. The entirety if Greek myths can be summed up as dickish gods, basically.

    The only god that I can't think of that wasn't really a dick was Hephaestus or vulcan. (depending on the name set you prefer)

    There were plenty of greek gods that weren't too bad. But, of the major gods, I'd say Hephaestus was probably the only decent fellow. Well, Hermes maybe. Though he was kinda the patron of thieves.

    The idea has been considered. Not me as I am not into bovines but I was consulted on the design. An artist friend who did my avatar came up with a similar concept for ladies who happen to like a real stallion in their life. It looks surprisingly workable

  • The ancient Greeks tended to blame any behavior out of the ordinary on the gods. The gods were such jerks because the ancients believed this was a shadow world and humanity but slaves of the gods. Think of what Sims or Sonic, Mario, and Link must think of gamers who play them.

    As for the story, King Minos of Crete asked Poseidon for a white bull to sacrifice in the gods' honor. Poseidon was okay with this, but Minos liked the bull so much that he reneged on the deal, substituting a lesser sacrifice for the bull. Perhaps as part of Poseidon's revenge or maybe she just had a fetish, Minos' wife Queen Pasiphaรฉ also liked the bull, so much so that she got the genius inventor Daedalus to build her a fake cow to hide herself in so she could seduce the bull without anyone the wiser. Until she gave birth to her son Asterion, better known as the Minotaur.

    The Minotaur may have been inspired by a bull cult at Crete. Basically, a bunch of priests wore bull masks and displayed a bad habit of occasionally sacrificing humans, which the Greeks had to explain in the same manner as we demonize foreigners nowadays.

    I didn't know about Minos skimping on a sacrifice, but Pasiphaรฉ, supposedly blasphemed against Aphrodite by saying that she was as lovely as the goddess. And was thus caused to fall in love with the bull.

    Actually, the most benign, even almost benevolent of the gods was Hades. Contrary to what some media will tell you, Hades wasn't evil, and his domain was a waiting room, not Hell. He didn't fuck with mortals because the only reason he became Lord of the Underworld was because Zeus and Poseidon screwed him over. He knows what it feels like.

    I'm glad that you know that, hades being evil is a very misconstrued (how did I spell that correctly?) idea.

    You're thinking Medusa who said she was more beautiful than aphrodite, thus she got turned into a gorgon and and man that looked at her was turned to stone. as punishment for her vanity no man coul look at her

    No, Medusa and Posiden were getting it on in one of Athena's temples. And Athena didn't care for that, and turned Medusa into a monster.

    The only fucked up thing I can recall about hades, is him forceably marrying his niece. And since she ate some pomagranite seeds (well food in general) she wasnt supposed to leave. But her mom was a bitch, and punished the whole human race for it. So Hades made a deal, that for X monthes a year, she'd stay with him, the rest with her mother. And so during the time she was away, her mother cursed humanity with poor crop conditions. (Winter) so yea, because of her reaction to him luring her away, we have seasons.

    E621, come for the porn, stay for the lessons in Greek mythology.

    Alternatively, you could read up on bestiality as corporal punishment/torture/execution method.

    Theres a reason why subjects like mythology and pre-modern era legal systems are optional studies in school.

  • Thing is, most of the problems mortals had with the gods can be laid at the feet of most of the gods higher in the food chain, like Zeus, Hera, Ares, Poseidon, Artemis, Athena, and Aphrodite.

    For example, in the Medusa story, there is a version in which Poseidon raped her in Athena's temple, and since she couldn't act against Poseidon, who, as the God of the seas, is considerably stronger, she took it out on Medusa, who was an innocent.

    Really, out of all the 'greater' gods, only Hades could really count as, well, ot 'good', but rather 'True Neutral'. Persephone wasn't even really his fault, well, the part where she had to stay, at least. She should've really known better as to eat food of the underworld, as no living or non-underworld being can eat those without being cursed. Quite similar to Izanami's fate in Shito myth, actually...

    Then there's the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. Orpheus' music was so beautiful that it moved Hades to the point he readily would've let her go back to the living. In the end, it was Orpheus who screwed up and broke the conditions. At least Orpheus knew it was his own fault and had the decency to not blame Hades.

    He only got his bad rep because of his domain, which was mostly associated with 'evil' by the ancient Greeks, when in acutality, Death is the only thing that's truly neutral in all things.

    Most of the 'lesser' gods, like Hestia, Nemesis and others are more inclined to help mortals, hero or not and rarely, if ever screwed up or caused trouble for them, which is probably why your rarely hear about them... Not enough shit to fling for others...

    Okay, rant over, it's just that Hades is my favourite God of Death/the Underworld...

  • Has anyone else noticed that the bull's penis is a little small compared to it's overall body size? I mean, I know not every animal has to have a massive hyper cock, but it just seems a little too... little. To me, it would look a bit better if the bull were the same size as the wooden mount. Just a thought. :I

    Bulls have a very slender but long penis compared to their body size. This can be evidenced in the fact that you can get a cane made from the penis of a bull.

    Yep. That is the truth. And the true myth indeed. I do love this pic and all, but I don't think however the bull was a hybrid of sorts with fish-like fins... It was a perfect white calf though, that much is true from the original text of the myth.

    Yep.

    So in Poseiden's mind he thought as his revenge for the deception, dishonor and him being swindled: "Ah. Okay then, King Minos. You love your bull so much? I'm going to make your woman, your wife love your bull as well."

    Basically.

    Why does the bull have those fin frill things? That's clearly the only discussion happening here

    presumably it's artistic license as the bull was given to minos by Poseidon, god of the sea. while the myth just says the bull was perfect, i'd assume the artist decided since a sea god gave it to them, the bull can be a sea cow

    on top of which, stop and consider that Hades was the only god of the entire freaking pantheon that actually did his job on a regular basis. Almost nobody ever escaped his realm while zeus screwed around the world and Poseidon spent most of his time lounging around. Hades was(to my knowledge) the only god who didnt father any demigods. Sure, he was basically a creeper who kidnapped a pretty girl and forced her to live with him, but remember, that Zeus and
    Poseidon locked him in the underworld because it was something they didnt want to do. I can honestly say, if I were stuck in a desolate underground realm with no happiness whatsoever, I'd probably turn into a creeper too. Come to think of it, Hades was the original Basement Dweller XD

    Hestia also did her job juuuuuust fine. Tended the hearth of Mount Olympus, gave up her throne for a fellow god, is completely content where she is.

    1. Apparently โ€œnooneโ€ in this modern age understands that the phrase โ€œno oneโ€ consists of two separate words. I weep for the gene pool.

    2. Itโ€™s mythology, absolutely anything can happen.

    3. It wasnโ€™t an ordinary bull. It was a magical bull created by Poseidon. So thereโ€™s no reason why it couldnโ€™t impregnate a human woman.

    He is also one of if not the most loyal to his wife out of all the gods and whenever he did have an affair he was open about it and even told Persephone about them if she asked.

  • ok for everyone talking about Hades Marrying his Daughter Forcefully: I've seen multiple, Multiple sources saying that she wasn't necessarily mad about it, or even Hating towards Hades, and that their marriage was a good one, based on rough speculation
