Not really an ad hominem, when mythology traditionally paints the mythical god Zeus as literally an ancient and bearded man.


#FakeNews

Was going to post some examples, but most of the paintings include half-naked women... or fully-naked women in other cases.

You're joking, right? A simple Google search of "Zeus" results in a page full of pictures of an old, white-haired, and bearded white guy.


Except no, many of the depictions are youthful. Even the white-haired depictions are generally very young, in the same way that anime characters have white or grey hair despite being young. And a generic google search returns results for *modern* interpretations rather than historical depictions.

And the fact that you somehow associate beards with old age highlights your historical ignorance. Not only are beards associated with manhood throughout historical fiction (which often make a big deal of youths growing their first beard), but people who opted to be clean-shaven in youth would continue that practice throughout their life.

The depictions may be youthful, but most people associate Zeus as an old man, between his 40s and 70s.
