So, I read an excellent essay about #ToxicMasculinity a few years ago. Pretty much, it has to do with #hierarchy (#capitalism / #colonialism) making men feel powerless -- so they bully other men for dominance, and the result is dominating attitudes toward those perceived as lower in status (women, girls, foreigners, etc).

In many ways, it goes way back to #AncientGreece -- pretty much, the only ones who had any rights at all were landowning men who were Greek citizens. And, of course, power, wealth and status dominating over those dominated men. #TheOdyssey and #Odysseus' attitude toward women (other than Penelope), those of lesser status, and foreigners -- was typical of the Achaean male viewpoint.

#DieOdysee zum hören, als Vorbereitung auf den kommenden Film?

klingt interessant: "Meike Rötzer erzählt das berühmte #antike #Epos des griechischen Dichters #Homer: #Odysseus' Irrfahrten und die Rückkehr nach Ithaka. Dabei legt sie den Fokus auf die #Frauenfiguren"

A share for #TravelTuesday and the small number of us who are trying to make this a thing without any sort of success. This was inspired by a photo I saw this week of #Achilleion on #Corfu and, yep, we've been there too. This was built for Empress Elizabeth of Bavaria at the end of the 19th century and the style was supposed to be that of mythical #Phaecia, final destination of #Odysseus.
