Aphrodite seems to be easily rattled when her identity as the most beautiful of all the beautiful is questioned. Even the Greek Gods can be super insecure.

Love gods are never purely loving and sweet people

[anjealousanaconda]

This is why I love Greek mythology specifically because it shows how people with godlike powers would realistically behave

[matthewstanley]

She also had children who were the EMBODIMENTS OF FEAR ITSELF

Image starting an ENTIRE FRICKEN WAR just because you wanted to win a beauty contest. Well now you don't have to.

"Can I seduce the door?" - Aphrodite probably.

[TomWoop]

"Incest, am i right?"

-Aphrodite

I'm sure if aphrodite opens a Onlyfans account, there would be a nuclear war.

I think she is the goddess of passion. Cuz she's very passionate... about everything she does. From shipping people to petty vengeance she is ALL IN!

Humans: "make love not war!"
The literal god of love:

[erodoeht]

I mean she was dating Ares. She’s basically the cheerleader captain who dates the jock bully but in Olympus XD.

"The Gods are all the same" Some Alien Kratos with a black sword

Aphrodite is the most inconsistent god I swear.

[leapfrog]

Aphrodite switching from kind and gentle to a short-tempered narcissist at the drop of a hat is kind of accurate given that she is the goddess of love.

Some girl: has a crush on her dad
The girl: ‘Nah that’s Aphrodite’

[SleeplessSiren]

If her daughters take a romantic interest, without missing a beat she swoops down and sleeps with that man out of curiosity and then tells that daughter how he did after the fact

[TranscendentLion]

I feel sorry for Aeneas being her son, especially with all the 'your mother' jokes that his fellow soldiers must have made.

[kustikongo]

"Some people might thin she is a kind and caring woman"
I just started laughing

[Wildcard-Jack-]

“People just assume she’s a loving, caring, kind woman”

PFFFT

“Loving, caring and kind” is the last thing you’d say about Aphrodite.
