Αίθρα - Aethra (10th - 9th century BC), daughter of the king of Troizina Pitthea and mother of Theseus, knew mathematics in another capacity unknown to many. So sacred to the beginnings of the most cerebral science, Aethra taught arithmetic to the children of Troizina, with that complex awe-inspiring method, since there was no zero… and the numbers were symbolically complex, as their symbols required many repetitions.

Πολυγνώτη - Polygnoti (7th - 6th century BC) The historian Lovon Argeios mentions Polygnotis as a companion and student of Thalis. A scholar of many geometric theorems, it is said in Vitruvius' testimony, that she contributed to the simplification of arithmetic symbols by introducing the principle of acrophony. She managed this by introducing alphabetic letters that corresponded to each in the initial letter of the name of the number. Thus, Δ, the initial of Δέκα (ΤΕΝ), represents the number 10. X, the initial of Χίλια (Thousand), represents the number 1000 etc. According to Vitruvius, Polygnoti formulated and first proved the proposition "Εν κύκλω η εν τω ημικυκλίω γωνία ορθή εστίν" - "In the circle the angle in the hemi-circle is right angle."

Θεμιστόκλεια - Themistoklia (6th century BC). Diogenes the Laertius scholar-writer mentions it as Αριστόκλεια - Aristoclia or Θεόκλεια - Theoclia. Pythagoras took most of his moral principles from the Delphic priestess Themistoclia, who at the same time introduced him to the principles of arithmetic and geometry. According to the philosopher Aristoxenos (4th century BC), Themistoclia taught mathematics to those of the visitors of Delphi who had the relevant appeal. Legend has it that Themistoclia decorated the altar of Apollo with geometric shapes. According to Aristoxenos, Pythagoras admired the knowledge and wisdom of Themistoclia, a fact that prompted him to accept women later in his School.

Μελίσσα - Melissa (6th century BC). Pupil of Pythagoras. She was involved in the construction of regular polygons. Lovon Argeios writes about an unknown work of hers: "Ο Κύκλος Φυσίν - η Μελίσσα - Των Εγγραφομένων Πολυγώνων Απάντων Εστί". (The title translates to "The circle is always the basis of the written polygons" or so.)

Τυμίχα - Tymicha (6th century BC). Thymiha, wife of Crotonian Millios, was (according to Diogenes Laertius) a Spartan, born in Croton. From a very early age, she became a member of the Pythagorean community. Iamblichus mentions a book about "friend numbers". After the destruction of the school by the Democrats of Croton, Tymicha took refuge in Syracuse. The tyrant of Syracuse, Dionysios, demanded that Tymicha reveal to him the secrets of the Pythagorean teaching for a great reward. She flatly refused and even cut her own tongue with her teeth and spat in Dionysius' face. This fact is reported by Hippobotus and Neanthis.

Βιτάλη - Vitali or Vistala (6th – 5th century BC). Vitali was the daughter of Damos and granddaughter of Pythagoras, and an expert in Pythagorean mathematics. Before Pythagoras died, he entrusted her with the "memoirs", that is, the philosophical texts of her father.

Πανδροσίων ή Πάνδροσος - Pandrosion or Pandrossos (4th century AD). Alexandrian geometer, probably a student of Pappos, who dedicates to her the third book of the "Synagogue". Pandrosion divides geometric problems into three categories:" Three genera are of the problems in Geometry and these, levels are called, and the other linear ones."

Πυθαΐς - Pythais (2nd century BC). Geometer, daughter of the mathematician Zenodoros.

Αξιόθεα - Axiothea (4th century BC). She is also a student, like Lasthenia, of Plato's academy. She came to Athens from the Peloponnesian city of Fliounda. She showed a special interest in mathematics and natural philosophy, and later taught these sciences in Corinth and Athens.

Περικτιόνη - Periktioni (5th century BC). Pythagorean philosopher, writer, and mathematician. Various sources identify her with Perictioni, Plato's mother and Critius' daughter. Plato owes his first acquaintance with mathematics and philosophy to Perictioni.

Διοτίμα - Diotima from Mantineia (6th-5th century BC). In Plato's "Symposium", Socrates refers to the Teacher of Diotima, a priestess in Mantineia, who was a Pythagorean and a connoisseur of Pythagorean numerology. According to Xenophon, Diotima had no difficulty in understanding the most complex geometric theorems.

Iamblichos, in his work "On Pythagorean Life", saved the names of Pythagorean women who were connoisseurs of Pythagorean philosophy and Pythagorean mathematics. We have already mentioned some of them. The rest:

I'll never get over what happened to my little pony. Men took over a piece of media intended for kids and companies just ran with it to make a profit. Adults with extra income can expend more on merchandise than kids with their measly allowances, I guess. "Oh, but it wasn't just about objectifying the characters, some men genuinely loved the show!" "The fans are mostly autistic and socially excluded. MLP is their special interest, you shouldn't be so judgemental, it's not a weird sex thing for some people!" and yet they failed to cull the porn addicts from their ranks. Don't "not every man" me about this. "They're fictional and they don't even look like actual horses" you people use this same exact argument to excuse men who draw explicit pictures of anime little girls. I've no sympathy for women who engage with this stuff either.

A very minthy christmas was one of my favourite movies growing up. I was 10 years old when friendship is magic came out and it didn't take long until men took over that. There was no space for little girls like me. Looking for MLP related stuff online would bring up artwork made by zoophiles ("oh, they weren't zoophiles! they're not attracted to actual animals, just like furries aren't actually attracted to foxes and wolves and whatnot!" "it's just a joke!" don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining, mate) and all manner of deranged content. I was an autistic little kid having to scroll past images of twilight sparkle having sex with some other pony. Even other children my age thought MLP was embarrassing because it became inextricably tied up to balding 30 year old men with weird fetishes. I didn't understand why people were doing those things, I didn't even understand what it all meant, because I was a CHILD looking up pictures of a CHILDREN'S CARTOON to print and glue to my bedroom wall.

Not once did these people think "are we taking over something intended for children and inadvertently exposing them to our perversions?"

The same thing is happening to those rape games. People are so selfish they can't see how their entertainment harms women and children. That's not "gay culture" or "autistic culture" or whatever the hell you people want to call it. Stop using minorities to excuse your goddamn fetishes.

Why am I supposed to feel sympathy for them? Am I supposed to feel sorry for the FedEx shooter because he was an autistic brony, too?

It's been years, the fandom isn't as big as it was then, but you still can feel their influence. I haven't interacted with MLP in ages. I can't introduce stuff like a very minthy christmas to my younger cousins because I know they'll google "my little pony" and come across the same type of content I did when I was their age.

It's really telling how people act like "think of the children!" is a conservative dogwhistle and nothing more. What the hell is wrong with these people? Wanting to protect my cousins from the shit I was exposed to online doesn't make me a conservative. I know what's out there. I remember elsagate. I remember what became of MLP. Roblox is a goddamn cesspool.

Reclaiming these words is a male supremacy linguistic trick to make women participate in their own humiliation.
