As for Aegeus, that line about how Aethra's dad convinced him to sleep with his daugther "whether by persuasion or deceit" makes him out to be a victim... and any way you look at it, Aethra's dad is a huge jerk!<br /><br />Poseidon *shakes head in dismay* with all Diana Pazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04368186068872293410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5458380.post-24806789486465259952011-02-20T21:29:14.618-05:002011-02-20T21:29:14.618-05:00Hey there!

Maybe I should be blaming them instead!<br /><br />Kristi: They all were, I'm afraid. But yeah, it would not have been the first time Athena did something like that with one of Poseidon's affairs-- though I'm not sure what role she would have played here!Amalia Dillinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13005039978668326144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5458380.post-68726607585928247962011-02-20T12:20:32.784-05:002011-02-20T12:20:32.784-05:00Oh my gawds, this post cracked me up.
