If you call pedophilia a kink please unfollow me and never talk to me again
I’m not sure whether I should laugh or cry.
Is OP aware that oh so many books exist on this subject?
And that almost universally the ones authored by people with doctorates in classicism and mythology disagree with OP?
Including the… epic hymn that first told this story? You know what’s in that original source material… right?
Abducted, yes. Demeter mourned? Definitely. Rape, no.
So here’s some info on Ancient Greek wedding traditions which (oh my stars and garters!!) included abducting the bride. With the father’s permission, which Hades got before he took her away.
Here’s a whole book on the subject of Ancient Greek wedding custom and its conflation with funeral rites. (Which sounds a bit like Hades and Persephone to anyone who’s ever dabbled in things like explication and context)
Here’s a link to another book that talks about Persephone’s rise to power as a result of her willingly eating the pomegranate seeds.
Oh shit!!
Here’s a whole bunch of myths and hymns that talk about her Queen of the Underworld badassery!!
Holy pug tacos Batman!!
Here’s another book about the myth focusing on the seasonal religious and liminal rites. WHICH TAKE PLACE IN THE DRY SUMMER (not the fucking winter), which you know if you read a book.Way to go, OP!
All these fucking books! What could anyone possibly do with them all?!?!?!?! Do you eat books to absorb their powers instead of read them?
A better guess would be that you got into a moral panic over the name of a certain Renaissance statue and maybe after reading three pages of Edith Hamilton or the first paragraph of a Wikipedia article. And then used that to castigate and demean not only the people who actually take their limited time to create gorgeous art but also to denigrate modern day worshippers of Persephone and Hades?
Maybe next time, you stringy piece of over-boiled okra, you might want to take your own advice and pick up a book, instead of reducing the feared and respected Queen of the Underworld who held power equal to or in many interpretations GREATER than her husband into a meaningless pastiche of female disenfranchisement that you seemingly plucked from your own ass.
“Racists, lgbtqphobes, and exclusionists can get fucked” Another post brought to you by the “let people live their goddamn lives” gang
Reblog this if you’re polyamorous, searching for a cryptid, trying to communicate with demons, willing to throw a Molotov cocktail at a police car, really want more tattoos/piercings, or just really love nonbinary people.
No one will ever know which one 👀
I don’t want people to look at me and think “ah, an androgynous person”
I want people to look at me and thing “what the fuck is wrong with this person??”
LISTEN UP AGAIN KIDS STOP REBLOGGING THIS FUCKING GARBAGE POST. IT IS 100% FUCKING BULLSHIT AND CAN AND MOST DEFINITELY WILL LITERALLY KILL. DO YOU NOT SEE WARNING LABELS THAT SAY “DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING”? THEY AREN’T FUCKING AROUND. YOU CAN FUCKING BURN THEIR ESOPHAGUS BY CAUSING VOMITING, CAUSE CHOKING, DROWNING, OR MAKE IT WORSE!

IF SOMEONE IS LOSING CONCIOUSNESS ALL THE CHIT CHAT IN THE WORLD WILL NOT PREVENT IT AT THAT POINT THEY ARE IN SERIOUS DANGER. “Buuut i don’t wanna take them to the hospital!!!” WELL SUNSHINE GLAD YOU’D RATHER HAVE A DEAD FRIEND THAN A LIVING ONE BUT YOU’RE IN LUCK CALL FUCKING POISON CONTROL.

This will never not be important I never had any control of my hair growning up until 13 when I moved in with my biological mother because my father and stepmom were very controlling over my hair it had to be long and brown never anything else now at 22 I do whatever I want with it in fact I just got a new hair cut a week ago shorter then I ever got and the only reason my stepmom likes it is because I have side bangs again instead of the blunt bangs I did have and now I see the same thing happening with my younger sister shes barely allowed to do anything because her father and our stepmom( we share the same step mom nothing else) shes not allowed to cut it only trimming shes not allowed to dye it unless its red or brown her natural color other then that it's not allowed like shes forbidden to dye her hair blond because her father is attracted to blonds and it pisses me off because as her father that's the kinda shit you keep to yourself just like I was shes not supposed to wear certain things especially because shes fat like wow that's real good for her self confidence one morning she was going to school and her father woke up he sleeps on the couch and told her she looked like a whore long story not so short people should mind there own business and let children have more of a free range with there hair and even there clothes my moms excuse and probably any parent who is like this is "I dont what her to regret it, she'll be able to do whatever she wants once shes 18 blah blah blah " that's the whole point of experimentation is trying new things some you will probably regret but hair grows back but its better that they do it with your help so they dont destroy the hair then when they finally come of age.
