Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
"Reach down into your heart and you'll find many reasons to fight. Survival. Honor. Glory. But what about those who feel it's their duty to protect the innocent? There you'll find a warrior savage enough to match any dragon, and in the end, they'll retain what the others won't. Their humanity."

Guys, you can find pretty big breasted ladies, as well as more..... 'plump' people of both sexes shooting bows quite successfully, without any painful mutilations....

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Yeah, it was a legend. The greeks wanted to portray the Amazons as frightening, but also unhinged.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Weren't the amazones entirely made up? Like the greek made a lot of things up to emphazise their points.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
There are no traces of removal in any works of art, but in the literature it is suggested that they burned one or both to prevent them from growing to full size. It's known as Breast Ironing, and it still happens occasionally today. Obviously not in that particular case, though.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Of course, legend or myth is obvious word here.
There were Scythians, and other migrating tribes of the "North", that had apparently had seen quite a few mounted, women involved in fighting and hunting.
That was definitely unusual for Greeks, so the road from that to the myth of woman only warrior tribe was quite obvious.Last edited by Spiryt; 2011-02-15 at 02:49 PM.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Scythians, I thought. IIRC, they were perhaps also responsible for "Centaur" myths, since they were great horse archers.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Does anyone know what webcomic those military De-Motivators are from? The two I saw were on page 5, a surprise round and a pyro maniac poster. The webcomic looks great and I want to read it, I just can't find it!

Gone with the Blastwave? It's quite nice, but very slow.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
On the Trail of the Women Warriors - the Amazons in Myth and History by Lyn Webster Wilde
The leading contenders are Scythian and Sarmatian cultures being the seed that started the legends. There is also some evidence in Celtic mythology of these myths being far more widespread that first assumed. Such as the primary trainer of the Ulster hero Cu-Chulainn being the 'famous' woman warrior Scathach from the Isle of Sky who's sister (Aife) and daughter (Uathach) are also warriors. There is some speculation that the translations of the the Ulster myths are in error, and the Scathach, Aife, and Uathach are not from the Isle of Sky, but are actually Scythian.Fhaolan by me!

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Gone with the Blastwave is the military comic. Hilarious, but short. And it only gets 2-3 updates a year, it seems.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
Well, it's not so slow as SMBZ, the Sonic/Mario crossover with heavy DBZ influences. Completely different mediums (Still images vs. Flash videos), but man, that is slow.

Huh. Gone with the blastwave kinda reminds me of Romantically Apocalyptic. And when I say I kinda, I mean a lot.

Re: D&D Demotivators: Return to Unnormal
What is not a myth is that many modern woman archers wear plastrons as protection, for the similar reason many archers wear braces, just for a different portion of anatomy.
Maybe ancient woman archers bound one breast or wore similar garments for the same purpose and this started the whole "only one tit" Amazon story.Last edited by Ravens_cry; 2011-02-15 at 05:33 PM.

So I'm a nerd and currently wondering how to put more Christopher Walken in this discussion but that means nothing.
