Homer is cool. Yes I know who Homer is.
Like from his actual books and things?
Yes sir.
From his epics, his hymns, his songs, etc.

Indeed, as does Homer.
I'm sticking to the whole woman as mother, ****, virgin, man as hero, father, and fool.
All primary sources only.
hmm...homer played with quite the contrast of female roles in the iliad tho. on one hand they were war slaves and sex objects on the other there was andromache the typical mother/up on the pedestal figure.

True, but I need to focus more on goddesses as opposed to mortals, I'm using Andromache and Penelope as footnotes to me using Demeter, Leto, Gaea and Hera as the fertile mother figures.
Then Artemis, Athena, and Hestia are my virgins.
And obviously Aphrodite serves as the sexual deviant.

I'm going with her role as mother to four Olympians, not the ideal mother figure obviously when you look at her relationship with Hephaestus, but her fertility is highly prized in ancient Greece.
And yes ma'am, perpetual virgins the lot of them.
