So in honor of #PrideMonth

I am reading an article about how every time ancient art depicts a goddess as sexually alluring, they always get labeled a "goddess of fertility". Even when there is no indication of children, pregnancy, or anything fertile.

The article argues that some goddesses were deities of sex and pleasure, without the maternal fertility aspect.

I am like 🤯 🤯 I have a whole entire archaeology degree and we never addressed this...

@TarkabarkaHolgy do you mean that in 2000 years, you'll have archaeologists looking through the remains of red light districts going: "so they had all those shops dedicated to fertility gods and godesses"?
