} Pygmalion {

Pygmalion was an Ancient Greek sculptor, that developed a distaste for real women, after seeing the daughters of Propoetus prostitute themselves. These daughters were the first to prostitute themselves and deny that Venus was a Goddess, which angered her greatly.

Instead, Pygmalion made a perfect woman from ivory and fell in love with her. During the festival of Aphrodite, Pygmalion made offerings and wished for a bride that would be the likeness of his sculpture. Once back home, he kissed the statue and the statue turned to flesh - Venus had rewarded his devotion by fulfilling his wish.
