Attractive Nuisance

I recommend reading Greek myths to any bored soul cause it's really a very good spiced up version of what the human mind is like.
Take Zeus and Aphrodite for example. Zeus the king of gods who was truly an embodiment of power was so promiscuos I think the word loses its very meaning when describing him. It just reminds you that the more power people have, the more they abuse it. It's bad enough that he cheats on Hera with other goddesses, he even does it with mortals and I think at some point, his own daughter.
Then there's Aprhodite the beautiful goddess of love (read : sex and lust) who bestowed upon many men their beautiful wives. But of course there are always those stupid people who forget to worship her and she turns them into lions. Or maybe the most beautiful woman on earth who enraged Aphrodite solely for beaing beautiful. The quote by William Congreve is proved perfectly to the point.
"Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned / Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned."
Though many might associate The Judgement of Paris with the Trojan War, I think this story is better attributed to how honestly and bluntly the weakness of men is shown in a contest where Paris (with his skills for sound judgement) was to choose the fairest goddess among Hera, Athena and Aphrodite. The Greek goddesses, being themselves, chose to bribe Paris. Hera offered him to be the king of Europe and Asia, Athena to him all the wisdom of the world and Aphrodite, the beautiful and infinitely desirable Aphrodite, chose to offer him the most beautiful wife in the world.
No bonus points for guessing who he chose. Helen was presented to Paris as a wife and the Trojan War was initiated.
Here we see that even the most sensible of men lose their will to hold their own when presented with the prospects of lust. How typical, right?

PS: I have no qualms about guys and this article was merely to show how accurately Greek myths portrayed the human mind.
