Medusa is not a feminist icon if you’re ignoring the whole mythos and demonizing Danaë and Perseus who were victims as well
- Perseus was a child and if you look at the actual context it directly points out he’s 15-20
- Ppl reclaim Medusa and then shit on Danaë and her trauma
- Perseus was forced to kill Medusa by a literal patriarch (the king) because the king wanted to r-pe Danaë and make her a slave
- the king did this to get rid of Perseus
- Medusa in pop culture becomes sexier and sexier but everyone ignores Danaë, the literal woman in the myth
- the enemy is the king not the kid. You’re not feminist for shitting Perseus
Also not really feminist if you’re making Medusa sexier an sexier despite her being a monster, and ignoring that she, Danae and Perseus were victims of an actual Patriarch ✌🏻reclaim all three of them or none of them.
