according to Plato women were looked at like machines for making babies and bringing them up. instead Chiseled body statues are the domain of men.
Plato, you stupid science bitch
"science"
And Aphrodite said hold my ambrosia and turned lonely Pygmalion's waifu statue into a flesh and blood sea nymph Galathea.
Then in 1941, on the Island of Themyscira, as a favor to Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, Aphrodite turned a clay infant into Diana, who would come to the western world as Wonder Woman. (This would be retconned in 2011 as Diana being fathered by Zeus to Hippolyta or Zeus giving the clay infant life, even though that's Aphrodite's superpower.)
