So Odysseus was getting raped for 7 years by this beautiful blonde hair nymph who promised him immortality; and, that's a problem? > Bruh send my ass to Ogygia then PLEASE
she represents drugs which pull you away from your goals and turn you into an animal since you begin to use your body as a means to appease the bottomless pit of carnal pleasures and nothing else. odysseus even in the most pleasure filled moments amidst the haze let fall a tear, for he knew what he was doing. this is why he is silver tier. he wasn't gold enough to find such behavior naturally repulsive but was not so base that he was bronze, fully giving in without a second thought. seems like you are bronze.
Believe it or not there were things more important than sexo to the warrior aristocracy of antiquity.
>>24113516> she's a symbolic figureFair.But if she was a legit woman, bruh bronze me all you want cause I'm staying on that island.
>>24113516He wasn’t trapped by his desire to be there, he had wanted to leave for years and years but she wouldn’t let him until the gods demanded her release him
>>24113527I dunno with all the bullshit Odysseus going through, I'd be happy to be stuck on that island
>>241135067 years... like the Venusberg...
>>24113533Odysseus is a hero. When rulers think like you they end up like that one son the king of Babylon rebukes for just eating and drinking and fucking his harem all day and night. https://youtu.be/vsS1bnsIq1Y
>>24113540I'm no Odysseus. I'm no king. I'm no mythic hero. Brother I'm just a man. https://youtu.be/S7_A3DYqYlk?si=_qF91qB0AQUsK42b
>>24113506What's even crazier is that Odysseus only knew Penelope for like a year before he was separated from her for two decades. Obviously there's more to it than that. He missed his home. He missed his dad, his son, his fucking dog, but still. He really did love Penelope and Homer shows exactly why several times. She's of the same type as Odysseus, brains over brawn (or beauty as the case may be), and I imagine that Odysseus found that more attractive than anything Calypso or any other woman could offer (and probably the same for Penelope toward Odysseus).
>>24113601That's fair, Penelope was a type of woman that would most complement Odysseus himself. > but for the rest of us...
>>24113549NTA but you are an animal without the innocence of those simple-minded creatures.You do not care to pursue a passion or goal that will outlive you. You only seek to numb yourself through temporary, fleeting pleasures to shroud your empty existence.You fucking sicken me.
>>24113623What can I say? When my passions are inflamed. When I see someone like Calypso at that lonely island.> Let Odysseus have her Penelope, but for me;> I'm going for that pussy
>that time when water nymphs raped hylas until he was straightWhatever happened to water nymphs?
>>24113655can't blame him
>>24113549Odysseus is a complicated man

>>24113506Almost reminds me of this website. I’ve browsed here for several years even though I don’t even enjoy it anymore.

>>24113516Thoughts on telemachus getting drugged by Helen?
>>24113887>Then Zeus' daughter Helen thought of another matter. She drugged the wine with an herb that banishes all care, sorrow, and ill humor. Whoever drinks wine thus drugged cannot shed a single tear all the rest of the day, not even though his father and mother both of them drop down dead, or he sees a brother or a son hewn in pieces before his very eyes.she tries to unburden of his grief but the consequence may be worse than the temporary relief. Meantime, with genial joy to warm the soul,Bright Helen mix'd a mirth inspiring bowl;Temper'd with drugs of sovereign use, to assuageThe boiling bosom of tumultuous rage;To clear the cloudy front of wrinkled Care,And dry the tearful sluices of Despair;Charm'd with that virtuous draught, the exalted mindAll sense of woe delivers to the wind.Though on the blazing pile his parent lay.Or a loved brother groan'd his life away.Or darling son, oppress'd by ruffian force,Fell breathless at his feet, a mangled corse;From morn to eve, impassive and serene,The man entranced would view the dreadful sceneThese drugs, so friendly to the joys of life.
