quick reminders about Greek mythology:
- Persephone is black/has dark skin
- Haphaestus is disabled and has some mental illness(es)
- Gaia is black/has dark skin
- Hades is disabled
- Zeus is a rapist [ on multiple occasions ]
- Eros is pansexual
- Athena is most likely asexual
- Dionysus is bisexual
- all of the nymphs are nonbinary
- Persephone is the goddess of spring growth
- Thanatos is the god of death, not Hades
A few more:
- Artemis is most likely asexual and aromantic (some interpretations lend themselves to demisexual)
- Poseidon is also a serial rapist
- In fact, the only one of the Big Three who isn’t is Hades
- Hades is not a terrible person (certainly not when compared to his family)
- Persephone is scarier/more widely feared than Hades ever was
- Apollo is not straight
- Zeus is not straight
- Heracles is not straight
- Eros has a twin brother named Anteros, and he is the god of requited love
- Since Persephone is woc it follows that at least one of her parents (Zeus and/or Demeter) is also poc
- Hera is not a “nagging wife” she is one of many of Zeus’ victims, and she takes her (justified) anger out on the wrong person
- Thanatos is the god of peaceful death
- Hestia exists. And is important.
