Note: The descriptions made by the roman poet Ovid about Medusa inspired this script. Gaps in the story were filled by me, in a fictional way, to make the original myth, which is composed of a few verses, more accessible to the new generations

    Moral of the story: Dont meet your idols you will be dissapointed
  • @ghynuli
    even after what athena did to her she still honored her... i feel so bad for medusa
  • @Adalyn0
    My respect for Medusa 📈📈📈📈 she didn’t deserve this I feel so bad
  • Any Beautiful Woman: exist Any Male Gods: Hippity Hoppity youre my property
  • The funny thing, is even if Athena is the goddess of wisdom, she couldn't even see past her own vanity!
  • So she didn't help Medusa when she was literally begging her for help but instead appeared after everything was over and then proceeded to blame Medusa. Wow what a goddess.
  • @redvenice7253
    If athena was a mortal she'd probably one of those women who says "she asked for it"
  • @woowoowitchymom
    “Poseidon, consumed by lust...” more like, “Poseidon, feeling super rapey”
  • @lanita.i
    The fact that after everything athena did to medusa, she kept praising her... beautiful soul
  • Athena is literally representing the society nowadays. Blaming the victim while knowing who the criminal is. Also could she not undo the curse on medusa?
  • @XenosKenosis
    So basically medusa got R**ed by Possiedon and Athena blame her for that, bruh i pitty for medusa
  • Medusa is just sitting there in the afterlife like: "So Athena cursed me for Poseidon forcing himself on me in her temple, and Athena thinks using my monster head as an emblem on her shield is a decent apology after the fact?"
  • @GhostOfSnuffles
    Got to love how Athena "fixed" Medusa's curse by sending someone to decapitate her instead of .... you know.... lifting the curse.
  • @bluerhythm2383
    How is this sooo heart breaking and unfair?? 😭😭😭😭 Medusa was clearly just a victim. She was so loyal and kind, yet a mistake she never even has done was seen as something that should be punished. She was the one who suffered and has been seen as the bad guy by everyone? I kinda can relate to her, being kind, good and an innocent person will make you easy to be manipulated and played by people. 🥺😔
  • @lemnabaw497
    Medusa is more honorable than the goddess she praised.
  • @thatdudeAaron
    Young me, not knowing Medusa's story: "Medusa is so evil, I hate her!" Me, now: "I wanna give that poor woman a hug, omg 😭"
