Birth of the Furies
In Greek mythology, Uranus was known as the personification of Heaven, and yet he is also reputed to have hated his offspring so much that he hid them inside of Gaea’s body. Gaea, of course, was displeased, and convinced a Titan to ambush Uranus as he approached Gaea for lovemaking. The Titan castrated Uranus, and from Uranus’s blood and testicles were born the Furies (goddesses of vengeance), the Meliai (ash tree nymphs), and Aphrodite (the goddess of Love), proving that good things have come from the emasculation of Men for thousands of years. Lorena (Bobbitt) Gallo may or may not have been hoping for a similar result when she fought back on June 23, 1993. Her actions brought a spotlight to the horrors of marital rape and domestic violence, helping to urge along a slowly shifting tide of public opinion.
