Mythological/Cartoon Characters
So, remember in middle school (or whenever) when you were learning about Greek/Roman mythology?
Was anyone else ever sexually attracted to the idea of one of the mythological beings?
I totally had a crush on Hermes. I liked the thought that he was so fast and kinda mischevious. I liked that he was the bad boy (with a heart of gold!) brother of Apollo. I really never had a crush on any of the rest of them. I think it's because they all had problems with love. Apollo's unrequited love of Laurel, Zeus - the cheating bastard, Hades kidnapped Persephone and had problems with the mother-in-law...etc...
Hermes was the only one I could picture being fun and unattainable (we all know how much I like boys I can have without attaining...unless I'm in love with them) and not married/taken.
Eh, maybe I never read enough about him. He was probably gay. Or there's a story about him falling in love and his heart never quite mending. I hate broken hearts. But at the time (6th grade) I had a total crush on him.
Anyone else have a weird crush on a mythical person??? OH! And did anyone have crushes on cartoons (yes, we know: Ariel - the little mermaid) or fictional storybook characters???
