Yeah this thread is full of idiots who care more about Marvel movies than about historical fact.

Norse society was hyper masculine and being called womanlike was just about the worst insult you could give to someone. Nobody "worshipped" Loki, he was the antagonist/occasionally the antihero of their stories, but the takeaway of the stories was always meant to be "Loki is not a role model"

Why do people care if a society of slavers and pillagers from 1200 years ago were progressive by modern standards? What an idiotic thing to be so confidently wrong about.

Scandiboos don't care for historical facts. Somehow, Nordic slaver pirates seem to have the best PR team in history and they eat up every last bit.
