I'm pretty sure Medusa wasn't raped O.o From all the books I've read they never said that Medusa was raped by Poseidon
No she was raped.
It never mentioned it so I always assumed that didn't happen and that it was consented ;o
It's okay(^_^) most people don't know it either you have to really study the old myths to find info on this... Of course I always assumed Athena was pretty and... Goddess like not built like like a future wwe superstar either... The rock had less muscles then her... But she is her father's daughter after all
Actually, she was raped in later Roman versions, but in most versions from Greek Antiquity she was beheaded by the hero Perseus.
The Roman version of the Medusa myth was related by the Roman poet Ovid (Metamorphoses 4.770).
" Medusa was originally a ravishingly beautiful maiden, "the jealous aspiration of many suitors," but because Poseidon had raped her in Athena's temple, the enraged Athena transformed Medusa's beautiful hair to serpents and made her face so terrible to behold that the mere sight of it would turn onlookers to stone. In Ovid's telling, Perseus describes Medusa's punishment by Minerva (Athena) as just and well earned."

Your right I forgot the difference in the Greek and Roman storytelling (^_^) thanks for the info... ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
You're very welcome. Poor Medusa ╥﹏╥
Are stating that such actions are not the true representation of Athena. First it's just a cute story. Second uh yeah it is. Please remember that Athena was the creator of medusa, who was raped by Poseidon in her temple and then was punished for it(a true rape victim) all Greek gods had weakness so this may be hers
