Because this is the only time my time taking greek lit has come in handy. And now i have to share my favorite telling of this myth is below Because of her beauty Poseidon raped Madusa in the temple of Athena. The punishment for having sex in Athenas temple was typically death, but seeing what had happened to this girl Athena spared her and made her a gorgon. Madusa then had the ability to turn men to stone and they would never harm her again.
Wikipedia: "the enraged Athena transformed Medusa's beautiful hair to serpents and made her face so terrible to behold that the mere sight of it would turn onlookers to stone. In Ovid's telling, Perseus describes Medusa's punishment by Minerva (Athena) as just and well earned." So she was blamed for being raped AND punished for it. UGH. I wish your version was the true version. But it seems there are a lot of Greek myths about gods punishing mortals for no good reason. :/
As a fellow Aussie I can confirm that this is how all coastal Australian men speak, including: The accent Deep-ish croaky voice Dirty jokes Carefree attitude Dumbass vocabulary Knowing a story back to front but suddenly having no idea how to explain it in a sophisticated manner so u just end up making it sound like a shit show 👍
Any chance of a longer video (like 30+ minutes) please?🥺 It’s taking me ages to fall asleep at the moment...also totally here the Greek mythology rambling
I've listened to every asmr ramble of this guy, I don't get most of the things he's rambling about, but I'm waiting for more 😂😂 Is it bad to get this hooked just because I like how you sound like Thor? 😅
The fact you hummed darth vaders motif to "soothe"- is the dumbest shit and it makes you the absolute best. Like you fully expect he'd pull out something cheesy and overplayed but he's like "mmmmnnnah im a man of c u l t u r e"
i have a video idea!!!! so... you know how you done the “going the distance” videos... well what if you done a video of them meeting? seems cool! stay safe x

Thats a way better story than having her written as some creepy lady who "baits" dudes with a pretty face until she turns them into stone for fun
I am from greece and had no idea for this lol I'm kinda shocked 😂😳

@@brukaoru I have heard that version as well, there are a few tellings of it to my knowledge.

Athena granted her the power as protection because Medusa was raped by Poseidon in Athena’s temple
That’s why establishments display the Medusa head as a “silent” proclamation that they are a safe space for women
