> Why So Many Mythological Monsters Are Female
Went through half the article and never found a quantitative comparison between male and female monsters. What is "so many" here? There are 3 or 4 examples in the article, how is it representative?
Even buying into the premise of the article, isn't it what we talk about when we want representation? Aren't women also allowed to be monsters? Do they always have to be virtuous?

That's the power of an ideology based on being offended, there's no way to be pleased.

Medusa was a rape victim, but she's remembered as a 'monster'.
Jezebel was a Phoenician Princess, but even 2,000 years later her name is synonymous with whore.

Nevermind how many Goddesses there are in Greek and Roman mythology.
These people look for rage and hate everywhere, in all elements of human culture.
