But not the battle addicts of her times. They'd rather see a bunch of sweaty men, fighting "FOR GLORY!", demonstrating their power. I guess nowadays you'd replace it with a car or some other status symbol? And that's literally what they sung about, look at the Illiad.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
