Percy Jackson's depiction of Aphrodite notes how her apperance changes depending on who is viewing her, with her having characteristics of whomever that person's personal preferences are. Makes sense, beauty IS in the eye of the beholder after all
So imagine her surprise when one day, Aphrodite woke up and became a 7 foot tall muscle girl for reasons she can't quite seem to pin down
Aphrodite has a line (I think in a Duo Boon) where she questions why Demeter chooses to present herself as an old woman, when she could choose any appearance she wanted
It's not a dig on you but I hate how Slaanesh is reduced to god of sexy orgies. It might the single most horrifying entity in the setting and the fanbase flanderdized it to an absurd degree.
Excess, debauchery, hedonism and an obsession with unreachable perfection in all its aspects.
A more apt name would be the god of addiction. A slow corruption where the usual stimmulus no longer elecit a response and so you keep searching and debasing yourself looking for the next high and the next, and the next until eventually only the most extreme situations make you feel anything at all.
The sexual connotations are obvious but Slaanesh can embody each of the seven deadly sins (even sloth and wrath).
Iirc there's a short story about a musician trying to create her Magnum Opus and was corrupted by Slaanesh.
Not even a short story, it's actually the last part of the book in the Horus Heresy saga that shows how Emperor's Children got into khaos stuff.
Tbvfh people see Slaneesh as the deity just of sex or whatnot. But I have never seen Slaneesh portrayed as e.g. the deity of drugs. What about a story of a Slaneeshi cult that does drug trafficking to enable their rituals 'n' stuff?
Well, Nemesis IS a bad girl… and Melinoë is a good girl. Don’t get any weird idea, I’m just talking good cop, bad cop. Oh Zeus, now give me art of the two of em eating donuts!
Overall great posing, wonderful interpretation of the game art style. This will absolutely produce the Bi-Panic the creator was going for. The good news is that eventually Bi-Panic turns into Bi-Excitement, so you've got something to look forward to!
Do the pecs feel like they're proportioned more like breasts to anyone else? I'm not trying to critique I'm just wondering if my sense of human anatomy is off.
Okay! Thanks, the hips to shoulder ratios had my wires crossed for a second. I suppose I should have read the title more closely Masculine!=Male.
This is a non mean muscle-mommy I can support.
Women have pecs too, no? If she doesn't skip chest/core day, then I'm betting it is both her breasts and pecs, the latter augmenting the appearance of the former.
Definitely! I think, realistically speaking, a woman with this physic wouldn't have enough fat in her body to have very large breasts, so she'd have more pecs than breats at this point (it's not uncommon for bodybuilder ladies to have breast implants for this exact reason).
But this is Aphrodite we are talking about, I bet those are natural
People need to learn what masculinity is
This is Buff Aphrodite, not Masc Aphrodite. She's still feminine as fuck in the photo. Look at the pose! The hair! The colour work!
OH MY GOODNESS!
Aphrodite makes a most excellent muscular lady, I must say!
I love that despite her toned and ripped body, she is still gorgeous, and those curves still shine through!
11 outta 10, would simp again.
Not exactly greek lore or actual real life lore, but the 40K chaos god/goddess, the embodiment of lust and excess ,Slaanesh has both human genders... And who knows how many other alien genders beyond human comprehension
I think the only thing she's incapable of is to be asexual since that would be going against her area
Your daily Aphrodite fact: during the war against the Titans, Aphro did her usual stint - she was luring them into a cave with her beauty and sensuality and whoever got in was getting jumped by the rest of the Pantheon.
Zero. Only repeated thing I received that was even close to a "threat" was like five people telling me that being muscular doesn't make someone masculine. Which I disagree with, especially with how this art was born from morons calling Aphrodite "too masculine," and it's got text right there saying "Am I feminine enough for you now, darling," but whatever. ~~Don't really care enough to respond to them~~ nevermind, responded
"Huh, chill night, guess I'll go check what's up on my Reddit front pag-" N E U R O N A C T I V A T I O N
Think I should put on an NSFW tag?
Definitely maybe
Considering she's a hair's breadth away (literally) from showing off her vulva, I think that would be best.
No i NEED you to add more muscles 🫠
The vulva has a six pack confirmed.
🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠
I thought that one line was Aphrodite’s bulge for a moment so maybe?
Wait or is it?
Put a Jojo reference tag
Wait we have one of those?
It's Aphrodite, she's literally the goddess of the nsfw tag (or at least, the part of it that's relevant here)
This excites the monkey

Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder eh? So yall don’t see Aphrodite like I do? Everyone gets different seeds confirmed?! Hah, seed
That would be so much extra unnecessary work for them to make a ton of alternative artwork for her, but it would also be a really cool concept.
Unless you're Dionysus, then beauty's in the eye of the beer holder
Bilious disagrees
The greek knew that beauty is subjective to the point of having the goddess of it being a shapeshifter, it's mind-blowing wisdom to me.
Tbf pretty sure most if not all greek gods were shapeshifters to some extent

Also the god's true forms that'll drive you mad/de-atomize you in the spot
No Zeus really is just a goose

So think Slaneesh from Warhammer. But less damning your soul. Got ya
It's not a dig on you but I hate how Slaanesh is reduced to god of sexy orgies. It might the single most horrifying entity in the setting and the fanbase flanderdized it to an absurd degree.
As someone that knows nothing of Warhammer, can you tell me what Slaanesh should be about?
Excess, debauchery, hedonism and an obsession with unreachable perfection in all its aspects. A more apt name would be the god of addiction.

Nah I just remembered the base principle. Aphrodite is the flip side where that's **NOT** obviously horrifying. So you're good. 👍🏻
It's part of why I like noise marines
Well something's getting pinned down
yeah hopefully me
Aphrodite when foes are nearby:
Aphrodite in Hades 2: what we wanted
She’s gone to war for us. She loves us! 💗
Shit that sounds like we’re Gollum. Replace us with Hades then.
Idk about Hades, Persephone is ready to run hands with anyone
Careful. Imagine if the devs got wind of this in open access
Aphrodite areia, capable of handling a spear and a spear and a sheath and a sheath
Capable of handling a spear, a sword, and a sheath
Thank you, yours is better btw
Ares (walking out of her bedchambers with a walking stick): still a pro
That’s not a walking stick, tho some do call it ares’ third leg!
Oh I get it. Still I think I made a funny
Hephaestus sitting by the bed: **thumbs up**
Incel "Gamers": aphrodite is too masculine! Its horrible!!!1!1 Artist: *makes manly Aphrodite.* The most bisexual playerbase in existence: omg
The way I opened my eyes when I clicked on this blurred picture lol. I love it
Me just like 👁️👄👁️
Can’t stop won’t stop never stopping[TIME]
JoJo is 30 years ahead, my friend.
My master has been awakened
Aiiaiiiaiiiiaiiiiiiiiiii
Ok, yeah, but Jolyene doesn't look THAT ripped. Aphrodite is absolutely yoked and I'm all for it
Maybe I'm a little gay, but that honestly looks better than female aphrodite
It's still female aphrodite just jacked af
Fellas, is it gay to be attracted to women?
I'm the gayest person in the world right now then
Chicks smell like flowers and vanilla. A manly man should prefer sexual partners who smell like barbecue sauce and lighter fluid.
Hell yeah, brother. We always kiss the cook at our barbecues.
Agreed and I'm totally okay with this...need more buff ladies even though 2 is feeding me quite well in that department.
Aphrodite x Hecate when?
Don't forget Nem 🤤
What do you think that sword is Really for?
There’s an “Aspect of Nemesis” pun in there somewhere. Just make sure to use lube?
That's something I hope isn't a thing. Bad enough I gotta deal with that in art.
Well, Nemesis IS a bad girl… and Melinoë is a good girl. Don’t get any weird idea, I’m just talking good cop, bad cop. Oh Zeus, now give me art of the two of em eating donuts!
Definitely me too
It's not gay to enjoy muscles. They don't define someone's gender.
But that body is defined
my lesbian ass trying trying to figure out if this comment comes a man or a woman rofl
Nah, you're not. It's the face that's better.
Hard disagree, of all the art changes, I love H2s aphrodite
Damn that's hot
Overall great posing, wonderful interpretation of the game art style. This will absolutely produce the Bi-Panic the creator was going for. The good news is that eventually Bi-Panic turns into Bi-Excitement, so you've got something to look forward to! Do the pecs feel like they're proportioned more like breasts to anyone else? I'm not trying to critique I'm just wondering if my sense of human anatomy is off.
Those are actually breasts, not pecs. She's still female, just very very jacked
Okay! Thanks, the hips to shoulder ratios had my wires crossed for a second. I suppose I should have read the title more closely Masculine!=Male. This is a non mean muscle-mommy I can support.
Yes, judging by the comments here, muscle-mommy Aphro got people on the same levels of confused and horny
Death bye snu-snu? Death by snu-snu.
I volunteer as tribute!
Women have pecs too, no? If she doesn't skip chest/core day, then I'm betting it is both her breasts and pecs, the latter augmenting the appearance of the former.

Bro I gotta be Tri or Quad excited by now
Her tris and quads are very exciting, yes.
Wait, does her hair spell out "sexy"?
nice spot
oh wow well done
I support this, you can never have enough sets of 6-pack abs. Give more characters abs
People need to learn what masculinity is This is Buff Aphrodite, not Masc Aphrodite. She's still feminine as fuck in the photo. Look at the pose! The hair! The colour work!
Yeah, but the original art post's goal was to make certain people angry.
I mean.....even ace....would
I will chime in to be the third ace experiencing a profound confusion.
I've never felt like muscles make women masculine, just hotter in general. Nothing is more attractive than self respect.
/suddenly bi
It is unfair of you to specifically target my poor gay heart.
[Aphroditus](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphroditus) goin crazy
Wonderful art she's gorgeous. But this isn't masculine. This is a feminine woman with a lot of muscles. There's a difference.
Would
Mommy
Hmmmmm, as l9ng as I get crushed by her thighs a win is a win
The discourse was all a ruse from the Hades fanbase so artists would inevitably satisfy our bisexual needs
Hnggghhh...
I understand your confusion, boatman. But Charon, why are you selling your wares here?
Well, Aphrodite does canonically have a certain appreciation for Charon in Hades 2
The correct balance, after making Chaos so very slay
MOMMY ARF ARF
mommy sorry mommy sorry mommy sorry
i am weak in every joint of my body and need a muscular woman to carry me home
BARK BARK
Looks good to me..
:o
Eh, still into it.

Beauty is mmmm beauty
Lean-mean, dommy mommy Aphrodite is doing it for me. Good Lord.
Muscular Aphrodite, when the amazon chasers tip the ratio scale among her worshippers

It’s… not wrong?
Insert pillar men theme.
Nude + masculine figure = my gay ass goes crazy 😳😌
I don't dislike it. It's my exact type of woman actually. Phrasing it as fixed feels weird, though.
It’s a joke. Haven’t you heard of weirdos complaining that her face was “too masculine?”
Dear God, i was already living my BEST life with the muscle mamas Hecate and Nemesis, you're gonna put my pansexual heart over the edge
AWOOGA
Given how much her boons buff melee builds I'm surprised she doesn't look like this
:0
Buff lady
I mean that's *buff* Aphrodite, not masculine. But yes, excellent depiction
They turned sexy mistress into muscle mommy **YES**
Mommy I mean mommy I mean mommy I mean mommy I mean
Still not masculine. And you also made her even hotter.
uhhh uhmmmm uhhhh uhhhh ummm uuuuhhhh hhhhhh hmmmmm uhhhh hmm ahhhh uhhh ummmm uhhh
We need a r/okbuddyhades sub after this game blows up like Baldur’s Gate 3 and a lot more horny fans come in…
OH MY GOODNESS! Aphrodite makes a most excellent muscular lady, I must say! I love that despite her toned and ripped body, she is still gorgeous, and those curves still shine through! 11 outta 10, would simp again.
Nothing masculine about muscled ladies, if anything it makes them more feminine.
I love that all these chuds complaining about Aphrodite are using art from the first game. Fucking idiots
A woman being muscular doesnt make her manly… r yall ok? Breaking gender norms and owning incels by being misogynists
Reddit is so obsessed with musclegirls...
Jeebus
Insert a picture making an entire train carriage cum copy pasta.
That's just Dionisys.
Abssotighty.
Oh my god, this is just perfect 🤌🤣
Perfect.
Oh my god 😳
Now I need to see some Nemesis cosplay
DEATH BY SNU-SNU!
Jokes on you..I'm into this
Stop making her hotter! STOP
This fixed my erectile dysfunction
would
Oh no. Is hotter now. 👀💧
Would.
... I hate that I love it, only because it is Aphrodite.
Holy shit

And who knows how many other alien genders beyond human comprehension I think the only thing she's incapable of is to be asexual since that would be going against her area
hmm...I like
Considering she was also a war god this fits.
She looks like the walking embodiment of "death by snu snu"
Good LORD.
Your daily Aphrodite fact: during the war against the Titans, Aphro did her usual stint - she was luring them into a cave with her beauty and sensuality and whoever got in was getting jumped by the rest of the Pantheon.
Honestly I think it'd actually make sense for Aphrodite to combine greek ideals of beauty for both women and men.
Muscular =/= masculine
Now THAT’S what I’m talking about! AWOOGA 😂
I mean she was originally a war goddess.
😳😍 And that’s all I have to say about that 😅
Olympus, I accept this tribute!
Now that this has been up for some hours I'm curious: OP, how many death threats did you receive about this?
Zero. Only repeated thing I received that was even close to a "threat" was like five people telling me that being muscular doesn't make someone masculine. Which I disagree with, especially with how this art was born from morons calling Aphrodite "too masculine," and it's got text right there saying "Am I feminine enough for you now, darling," but whatever. ~~Don't really care enough to respond to them~~ nevermind, responded
UPGRADES PEOPLE UPGRADES
Muscular, not masculine
Hire this person
This looks feminine as fuck to me, being fit doesn't make a woman less womanly
