a perfect example of modern overkill-mentality. I guess we can consider ourselves lucky that Cupid doesn't use a rocket launcher nowadays. O tempora, o mores!

(speaking of morale: wouldn't it be a major crime in the US to get a scarcely clad minor to assist in R-rated activities?)

Even if it were a rocket launcher, it Cupid, he doesn't kill (also, a crossbow isn't that far a leap from his standard weapon). I think of it as Cupid's attempt to break through that hard exterior that some shield their hearts behind.
 
I'm surprised nobody has entered a picture of Aphrodite (from the Xena/Hercules TV shows).
 
well, herself being a single is not exactly good advertizing for her job ;) Also, I always thought her character in the series a tiny bit on the daft side.

But you're totally right. Nobody thought of any of the classical love deities like Ishtar, Inanna, Hathor, Cliodhna, Sjöfn, Rati, Mama Wata, Erzulie etc.
 
Aphrodite wasn't expected to have a husband. The goddess of married women was Hera.
 
Recap.

Dang it. Is there a way someone can put the poll up for me? I have to head out sooner than I thought tonight.
