OK, lets not pretend that the "goddesses" weren't little deviant degenerates themselves.

Zeus pretending to be an injured swan in order to rape a lady is some of the wildest shit I've ever read.
Didn't Perseidon also have sex with Medusa (maybe consensual, maybe not) in Athena's temple and Athena turned her into a gorgon?
Daedalus build a fake cow, so Pasiphaë (daughter of the god Helios) could position herself inside, in order to trick the Cretan Bull into mating with her. She later gave birth to Asterion, also called the Minotaur.

In Ovid's version yes. It wasn't consensual either.

This is another case of Poseidon strikes again.
Poseidon gave the bull as a gift to Minos the king of Crete, expecting him to sacrifice it. Minos instead likes the bull a lot and decides he wants to keep it, so he sacrifices another one. Poseidon in his anger causes his wife Pasiphaë who is indeed the daughter of Helios (or Sol) to fall in love with the bull. She willingly recruits Daedalus to build the fake cow for her so she could trick the bull into mating with her.
Poseidon is just as bad as Zeus. He chases Demeter who attempts to avoid him by transforming into a mare. Instead he turns into a stallion and rapes her.
They did everyone. Not just the women, but the men, animals and young boys too.
I am no expert but missed that part, I recall zeus himself taking the form of animals to bang mortal woman more than once, and Hera's vindictive changing into a fly was it, flying in a woman's ear, then going person again and exploding their head? I probably got that story wrong.
Did Zeus or his kids or brothers fuck actual animals themselves?
Not the Olympians that I know of. But Pasiphae was a goddess, daughter of Helios, who fucked the Cretan Bull and gave birth to the Minotaur.

Sounds like the Trump administration.
Heyoooooo
Immortality leads to boredom. Boredom leads to stupid decisions.
I got bored and installed a bunch of shelves in my garage. It seems to have been a pretty good decision.
Yes, but are you an immortal god?
Stupid decisions lead to fear. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
These gods sound a lot like regular people
That's one of the things that makes greek and norse mythology appealing IMO. They make mistakes like we do. They get horny, they fuck and they fuck up.
Especially so with the norse mythology, the gods are like people that have achieved magic and immortality. Too bad celtic and gaulic and germanic and the rest of the barbarian mythology has mostly been lost to history because they weren't given to letters. Which is the definition of a barbarian tribe according to some, if they wrote shit down.
Makes them also more believable and causes less logical issues.
Once you make someone or something all knowing and all powerful things stop making any sense.
It's always greener on the other side
Or the inside, as it were.
This seems like a goddess issue more than a god issue.
