"Mythology is for imagination and fantasy do not drag things like that into legends that are only created to fascinating stories."

Uuuh.. What? How on earth do you think mythology is just for people's funzies? This is people's cultures we're talking about. Have you never though about what these mythologies mean to the people who created and believed them???

"No one should worry about who has written the stories because when someone worries about things like that then they are being picky. Life is to short to complain about male and female characters in stories."

The problem is that men and women, and the interations between them are a basic and unescapable part of life, and the mythologies people create touch on and reflect that. Having an idea of the perspectives of the people writing the texts that we are reading can give us insights about a text that we wouldn't have otherwise.

By saying that we shouldn't talk about, or at least take note of the sex and gender of the people writing the texts when that data is potentially available is like putting on blinders and saying "I want to limit my knowledge on this mythology because this upsets me." If you want the most thorough understanding of the texts and the cultures that made them, we have to get nitpicky sometimes.

"Don't end up doing something that can cost you your admin rights and position. There will be no videos or posts on the decisions gods or goddesses that complaining about men and women. Complaints like that are meant everyday and those issues just need to die out. Basically people need to get over the whole male and female thing."

Did you really threaten his admin status over him posting a scholarly video by a reputable source as opposed to just posting mindless fantasy??? It seems to me you're the one bringing politics onto this website, coming on here and threatening people because you got triggered.
