How about you put down the pronouns and pick up some proverbs

@xiqiyingying @sianvaladian @DukeOfZamunda Certainly not as good

@xiqiyingying @sianvaladian @DukeOfZamunda You can find it in some places made with chicken breast and or without skin to be lower in fat, likely for dietary reasons. Not as traditional or typical but you can certainly find it and it’s the same dish

@abcdentminded Chills. There’s something really freeing about your voice — it awakens an ancient, angry, prideful hunter gatherer patriotism within me. Cheers

@abcdentminded I can’t tell what I’m looking at. Finish art before you post it or at least explain what you’re going for

@lucasrl2003 @Methodios007 @eeveeithink Aphrodite is his mother, and before that he (also called she sometimes) was considered to be a version of Aphrodite rather than a separate entity. Both versions are considered both male and female, no origin story leading to it, just a characteristic of Hermaphroditus

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@lucasrl2003 @Methodios007 @eeveeithink We don’t have a detailed origin story for him. He’s a relatively “new” Greek god as far as we know, initially being referred to as Aphroditus and imported from Cyprus to Athens in the 3rd century BCE. According to an inscription in Halicarnassus, Salmacis raised him

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@AbyssWicked90 @eeveeithink I’m not disputing that, simply the story about the attempted rape of Hermaphroditus by Salmacis resulting in the intersex characteristics. She’s described as his caretaker who raised him on a Greek wall in Halicarnassus, 2nd cent BCE

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@JSmithingler @eeveeithink No worries, it’s the dominant story nowadays, given our lack of any surviving Ancient Greek origin story for Hermaphroditus’ intersexuality. Ovid gave us one, and sure did love stories involving rape and transformations, guess it stuck

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@AbyssWicked90 @eeveeithink This story is from Ovid (Roman) not the Ancient Greeks

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@Methodios007 @eeveeithink This origin story of his intersexuality and this particular relationship to Salmacis as his attempted rapist is as far as we know a later invention by the Roman poet Ovid. It has since become his most popular origin story but is not Ancient Greek

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@purple_plumbob_ @eeveeithink @Spiked_YEEN That’s the Roman Hermaphroditus, seemingly an invention of Ovid. There’s nothing to suggest that the Ancient Greek one fused with a woman nor Salmacis his rapist/attempted rapist

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@OsteoBunni @eeveeithink @Spiked_YEEN Salmacis as the rapist and origin of his intersexuality is from Ovid’s (Roman Augustan poet) Metamorphoses, and doesn’t reflect known Greek mythology about Hermaphroditus

[Not bot @slipperydentist]

@JSmithingler @eeveeithink This version of Hermaphroditus is Roman, from Ovid, in 8 CE. There’s no evidence of this story among the Ancient Greeks. He just looks like that in earlier known stories, likely for symbolic reasons and due to his mother being Aphrodite
