charameiYes, I'm still doing this; it got busy at work, so I had to stop for a while to do my actual job.
I would like to tattoo the phrase 'IF EDWARD CULLEN CAN WAIT A HUNDRED YEARS BEFORE LOSING HIS VIRGINITY, YOU CAN WAIT SIX WORDS BEFORE STARTING YOUR INDEPENDENT CLAUSE' onto this woman's forehead.
Also, this:
Second thought: LOL, Spartan men really didn't know how to handle female sexuality, did they? I mean, even less than the rest of the Greeks. 'Make her look maler! Make her look maler!'
Third thought: Although when you think about it, Aphrodite does represent all eroticism, so I guess it makes sense. One might just as reasonably put a statue of her in leather into a stereotypical BDSM dungeon. (When you consider some of the more out-there kinks, this begins to raise some... interesting... mental pictures of statuary. Fill in your own mental blanks: I will not be blamed for the depravity you are now picturing.)
But still. Of course the Spartans worshipped her in armour.

Aphrodite was worshipped in armour in Sparta by the Roman periodFirst thought: please, oh, please, does anyone know the source for this? I'm desperately interested, so naturally it's not given. Pausanias, maybe?
