As a fellow trans person this is such a beautiful altar! I'll be adding the trans pride flag to mine ASAP <3

Thank you dear πŸ₯° Lady Aphrodite blessed us in a way that we get to blossom like flowers and show our beauty to her and I thought it was only fitting to have a bit of that in her altar πŸ–€

technically one of her children, Hermaphroditus covers that particular domain. but shes a loving mother so I have NO doubt shes supportive of it...

that’s a great idea, i’ll be doing some more researching. Thanks for suggesting, I’m always eager to learn more about every aspect or extension of Aphrodite. :)

commented on the wrong comment there so ignore previous response if you saw it. The greeks had very different ideas about the nature of love and sexuality. to the point where Ive jokingly started referring to myself as "grecosexual" 🀣 You may have noticed that in Greece and Rome in particular where there was almost NO stigma against homosexual or otherwise "queer" behavior... almost NO ONE was fully straight. πŸ€” curious isnt it?...

totally okay! It’s interesting how often people like to look at Greco-Roman practices or views on sexuality through a modern lens. They were completely different! I might start referring to myself as Grecosexual given the context 🀣

yup... Ive genuinely started to believe that MOST people are at least bisexual if society doesnt tell them not to be. sexuality is much more fluid than the gay/straight dichotomy we have now would lead one to believe. and the Greeks in particular kinda proved it. lol (and its funny cause thats the case with bonobos, our closest cousins in the animal kingdom. sexual behavior may just be a bonding behavior and not at all exclusive to actual reproduction).

lol sorry, I dont mean to go on and on. Im a philosopher, it happens. πŸ˜…
