Description

Goddesses doing it for themselve: parthenogenic births, goddess figurines of the Bronze Age, and theories of goddess history in Hesiod's Theogony. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!


CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
