EROTES

The Erotes of Greek mythology share some similarities with our current understanding of human sexuality, particularly in terms of the themes of love, desire, and sexual attraction. Here at THE LIMINAL, we created our EROTES service line to provide resources to individuals and organizations that lean on these themes based on our understanding of these principles. For example:

1. Romantic love: The Erotes were associated with the idea of romantic love, which is still a fundamental part of human sexuality today. They represented the intense emotions and feelings that people experience when they fall in love, and the desire to be close to and intimate with another person.

2. Sexual desire: The Erotes were also associated with sexual desire, which is another key aspect of human sexuality. They were believed to be responsible for inflaming the hearts of mortals and gods alike, and for inspiring sexual attraction and passion.

3. Playfulness and mischief: The Erotes were often portrayed as playful and mischievous, which can be seen as a reflection of the way that humans approach sexuality. Sexual encounters are often associated with fun, excitement, and spontaneity, and can involve elements of teasing, flirting, and playfulness.
