I just think it's an interesting example of how troons are fully aware of both social and sexual power dynamics and know how to weaponize them while pooners are Stockholm syndroming themselves just for oppression points they can't even cash out on.

Yeah I've seen some rumblings on the subreddit drama sub over the last week or so. It was funny to see the origins of the troon civil war.
Even if it is fake, the OP still needs help.
Because for autistic women, Iliad is like ancient Greek yaoi, and we all know how much pooners like yaoi.
Achillean is the gay male equivalent to Sapphic. Sapphic comes from Sappho who lived on an island of women and Achilles was such a fag that even the ancient Greeks got into arguments about it.
It means "a man who likes men" without being exclusive because Greeks fucked anything that moved, so even if Achilles and Patrocles were into each other they probably weren't gay-gay. But just like how "bi" has come to magically include they thems, achillean and sapphic now apparently are the same way because having an actual sexuality is bad or something.
While I do not have proof, I'd bet that "Achillean" was made up on tumblr by fujos/proto-pooners/actual pooners after "Sapphic" got popular in the gender fandom because they felt left out and tumblr is ground zero for most of the retarded gender shit. Oh, and then I blame the book "The Song of Achilles", which I have not read, but I assume was the inspiration for all the gay pooners to come up with "Achillean".
Achilles was sulking in his tent because Agamemnon demanded some female slave Achilles wanted to dip his dick in. And I think they use greek terms because that sounds more "science-y".
It's also only spotted hyenas, none of the other species have this
I had just sort of assumed that. Or if not tumblr, Reddit or some such.
Goddesses =/= women. Though for what it's worth, female goddesses often preside over female and female-coded things (i.e. Hera for marriage, Artemis for childbirth and the hunt, Aphrodite for love, Hestia for the hearth, Demeter for the harvest, etc. etc.)
One counterexample I can think of is Tiresias, who was transformed into a woman by Hera as a punishment for breaking up snakes having sex by hitting them with a stick. He was reverted seven years later by once again bullying mating snakes.
I’m glad you brought this up because it’s hilarious but I’ll be fucked if I was going to screenshot it all.
There is the story in Ovid's Metamorphoses where Isis transforms Iphis (a Cretan lesbian who had been raised as a man) into a man so she could marry Ianthe, another woman. Ovid was Roman but his subjects were pre-Roman. https://ovid.lib.virginia.edu/trans/Metamorph9.htm#483366553. Iphis ends up marrying Ianthe as a man and they lived happily ever after as a straight couple.
Arguing about the gender or sexuality of that sort of stuff outside of an interest in history is pointless. It's the 'but this exotic nudibranch can change gender when you cut it's cock off' argument but less obvious. We don't live in ancient greece, we don't live their reality, you can't just bring back a certain part of some extinct culture simply because it suits your sexual desires or mental issues. Maybe he was trans or whatever but he's dead and so is the culture he existed in, maybe he was gay, if he was then he probably had sex with olive oil for lube and scrubbed the cum out with a pumice stone slathered in lard and ash or whatever so should we ban shower gel and normal lube because of that? Or do we only bring back the parts you specifically romanticise? I just hate people who try to argue about current day issues using anything other than current day examples. Trying to argue transgenderism is good because there was this one guy 4000years ago is nothing more than escapism because you can't support yourself with anything that holds water and instead have to rely on speculation for something that isn't even relevant.
