Pentheus: Hera and Zeus

pentheusawn:

Zeus and Hera were having an argument over who has the most pleasure in a sexual intercourse, a man or a woman. Zeus teased Hera, by saying that the woman had more pleasure than a man did. Hera had the opposite view.

To prove their point, they went to see Teiresias, who had sex as a man…

I’m wondering how Teiresias knew what was better than having sex as a woman, since it only got a 9 out of 10, and what it was.  Did he know something that even the Gods did not?  Hehe…curious.  Maybe dogs or cows or Krakens or some other creature got more pleasure from sex than a woman, earning that 10 out of 10 by which he could create the rest of the scale.

I mean, those Krakens are pretty damn big…that’s a lot of potential nerve endings… :P

Sense of the World Thoughts and ideas move the world. They're important, and like everyone else, I like to occasionally share what I'm thinking. I'm a writer with a philosophy degree and a MA in Film Studies, but my thoughts range on everything from Film and Philosophy to Art, Science, Writing, Sports, Social Science, Fiction, the future, the past, my daily life and observations, and, well, anything else I find worthy of sharing. I hope you enjoy what I write and that it makes you think yourself. Feel free to ask any questions!
