History

Nastasia [14]3 years ago

Medusa, one of the three Gorgons, daughter of Phorcys and Ceto. She was the only one of the Gorgons who was subject to mortality. She is celebrated for her personal charms and the beauty of her locks. Neptune became enamoured of her, and obtained her favours in the temple of Minerva. This violation of the sanctity of the temple provoked Minerva, and she changed the beautiful locks of Medusa, which had inspired Neptune’s love to serpents. According to Apollodorus, Medusa and her sisters came into the world with snakes on their heads, instead of hair, with yellow wings and brazen hands. Their bodies were also covered with impenetrable scales, and their very looks had the power of killing or turning to stones. Perseus rendered his name immortal by his conquest of Medusa. He cut off her head, and the blood that dropped from the wound produced the innumerable serpents that infest Africa. The conqueror placed Medusa's head on the shield of Minerva, which he had used in his expedition. The head still retained the same petrifying power as before, as it was fatally known in the court of Cepheus. Some suppose that the Gorgons were a nation of women, whom Perseus conquered.

Does bullying impact the world?
denis23 [38]

Simple answer, yes.

Long answer, bullying impacts the world because for example, many kids bullied in grade school have affected lives later. It usually turns out to be worst nightmares of bullies, but this is only is applicable for violent ones. Bullying isn't always negative. It sometimes matures and grows people to stand up. But not all people stand up which is why it still impacts the world. Racism is an example of bullying. Its bullying a person because of their race. Judging in other words.
