I never thought of Aphrodite having anything to do with romantic love, haha, just of fertility and intercourse. I always looked at her as the slut of the gods, lol (the reason I've never liked her).

But what about Zeus?
Zeus slept with countless women, disguising either them (Io) or himself to fool his wife, Hera.
Is he a slut, too?

Clotho was the one I was thinking of. Usually she's depicted as a young woman, Lachesis as being middle aged, and Atropos as being an old woman. (Where we get the word "atrophy" from, btw.)
She'd be easy. Carry arround a spindle or a rod and reel.
There are so many interesting goddess to choose from, though. When you get a minute, peak around!
I'm glad everyone seems to like my idea. I've always been interested in mythology and went through a phase when I was younger when I was obsessed with Greek mythology. So interesting!

Right well that solves that one then.
Actually no it doesn't.
on the surface i'm not going out dressed as an old greek slut.
But somewhere in my mind i'm thinking i want to do it just to spite folks.
Ok, Persephone it is.
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

Least he didn't chop his wifes head off so he could remarry.
As for Ares:
"The son of ZEUS and HERA, he turned out to be a swaggering bully boy and yobbo God. He had the hots for APHRODITE and even after being caught in a net by HEPHAESTUS in full flagrante delicto this did not diminish his adulterous activities. The only thing he enjoyed more was war." Though I doubt Aphrodite would touch me with someone elses colloseum...
More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

PLEASE! Stop with the self deprecation! She was the goddess of sex, it's her MO!
And have you ever SEEN Hephaestus? Not very good looking, and lame in one leg. No wonder Aphrodite had a wandering eye. (Not that I condone cheating!)
I think you'd stand a pretty good chance.

Hephaestos: high school geek. Smart and inventive, but not winning any beauty prizes.
Aphrodite: high school cheerleader. Beautiful, sexy, and not too bright.

Quote:The Norse knew these three as the Norns, Urd (the oldest), Beldandy (or Verdande, the middle child), and Skuld (the youngest). They've appeared under those names in an anime series called Ah! My Goddess (or Oh My Goddess, depending on how old your copy might be), which might serve as cosplay inspiration:

Here they are in casual-wear:

And here are some variant outfits:

I couldn't find a good pic of all three in their "normal" garb (lot of Beldandy, not so much the other two), but some searching should turn something up.

"But you sleep like a ghost with me
It's as simple as that
So tell me I'm mad
Roll me up and breathe me in
Come to my madness
My opium den
Come to my madness
Make sense of it again."
