It is a prosthetic. Because he is missing a whole ass limb. And this is on top of C-PTSD from prolonged trauma, memory loss, the mental conditioning from the Winter Soldier programming, any mental illness he currently deals with (depression at least).

1. Chris: “There was no shirt off scene in the script. And then Taika came up to me and said “I think we need a shirt-off scene.” His exact words were: “We need bums on seats.””

2. Chris: “And I was like “I’m not sure it’s gonna sell the tickets.” And he said, “It is. Get your shirt off.””

3. Taika: “He didn’t wanna do that. And I made him do that.”

4. Taika: “He [Chris] was like, “I don’t wanna do that.”, “I’m not just a piece of meat.” And I was like, “Yes, you are.””

“He didn’t wanna do that. And I made him do that.”

“I’m not just a piece of meat.”

“Yes you are.”

Does anyone still not see anything wrong with this man?!

So I guess Taika can sexualize Thor and noone minds. No. This was necessary. But give Nat spendex pants and director is cancelled. Gross

Where are all who want equalty now? Where are all who shout woman is sexualized if she as much as shows clivage,??

This the same as Loki. Restrained and stripped against their will. I don’t care if it was necessary for the narrative or not, but please acknowledge that the forced stripping is meant to humiliate the character, and shouldn’t be limited to fan service/false feminism or whatever the fuck people think when characters (male especially nowadays) are subjected to the ‘female gaze’.

Yes, you’re allowed to admire their physique. No, you must also realise and acknowledge as a character and hence a person in the story, they are also forced to do something they have no control over.

-- The primordial deities in greek mythology are the children of Chaos, namely Tartarus, Gaia, Nyx, Erebus, Hemera, and Eros (though Eros is also said to be Aphrodite’s son, which I believe is also the case in the Riordan!Verse). Gaia is said to have birthed Ouranus before they together had the Titans. -- 

I think whether it’s possible for them to have demigod children depends on how you want to look at them. Personally I think they’re not human enough to have demigod children - as they stand closer to creation than humanity. I believe the more we go up in the family tree, the more abstract the deities become, ending with Chaos. For example, how Nyx is the embodiment of darkness, and more described as a presence than a person, while, for example, Mr. D is just like any other person.  

Even the Titans only ever made children with each other, as was the case with Rhea and Kronos, who birthed the next generation, namely the gods, who would stand closer to humanity. 

I also just think the gods are the only ones who would want to interact with humans in any way, as they are often purposefully made in the image of humanity. They’re supposed to be relatable and amusing, and someone to hold accountable for their misfortune. While the Titans and - especially - the primordial gods were used more to explain existence itself. 

Ultimately you can do whatever you want of course. If you want to stay as close to canon as possible I wouldn’t say they couldn’t have demigod children. Though I would think of it as practically as possible; like how Gaea couldn’t have any demigod children because she is asleep and can barely form a humanoid body, how Ouranus has been killed etc. When it comes to Tartarus, Nyx, and the others... well I think it’s important to keep in mind that someone would have to fall in love with them for them to have demigod children in the first place. 

But then again, a demigod child could have been created for a specific purpose, like someone searching out one of the primordial gods so their child would be powerful, a weapon more than anything else.
