  • I love Hera. I mean, I don't understand how that great woman could've lived with such a womanizer (Zeus) without having to go see a therapist. I mean, Zeus had like a HUNDRED bastard children that weren't even Hera's. Also, she must've been trying so hard to continue her marriage with Zeus. If I was Hera, I would've divorced him long ago seeing as divorce is related to Marriage, and Hera is known to be a Goddess of Marriage. Plus Zeus damn RAPED her to get her to marry him. I adore Hera.

  • Yeah who Zues some like some king good joke doe

  • hera is shit. athena is the best goddess

  • hera was a bitch

  • @LilCutePali A-freakin'-men. I know what a he-whore Zeus was. That's why I have nothing to do with him. If there's ever a Zeus vs Hera war, I'm grabbing my weapons and taking Hera's side...

  • Where can I learn more about Hera, besides this vid?

  • @Antonio181ful How can explain this: Hera represents the patriachal (and,I might add,mysogynistic) pig's view of marriage. In otherwords,it's a *beep* and that's why Hera's not known for her sparkling personality.

    See what I'm getting at?

  • Hera is my favorite goddess

  • Hera is such a monstrous vain goddess:

    First her constant jealousy; I fully understand her defense in marriage with Zeus but she shouldn't take all her rage on his children since they have nothing to do with this, it was Zeus' fault so why can't she stand up to him?

    Second she never loves her children nor has she raised them; for example she threw Hephaestus from Olympus only because he was deformed and ugly. Including that almost all her children are cruel gods ares and Eris etc.

  • @kendratheluvable How do u do a bibliography on it

  • @LilCutePali

    Hera is definately jealous when it comes to her rights (and who could blame her?). Too bad patriachy doesn't see things that way.

  • i adore her! always have, always will!

    

  • i like it 

  • cannot scare too much
