About Erotes
Nobody but ourselves knows what is going on in our mind.
Fear, desire, shame and guilt are just some of the disturbances that

For some, the act of just thinking about the word sex, can generate imaginary stimuli, release adrenaline and prepare the body to flee or fight.
For others, this same thought has the opposite effect and activates the hormones of happiness.

The story of Erotes
Erotes was the name given, in Greek mythology, to the four winged gods,
children of Aphrodite. From their mother, goddess of sensuality and beauty, each of them inherited
a specific gift. Together, they represent the different facets of love.
The most famous of them, Eros, was a winged god who is always depicted with a bow and arrow, the so-called cupid. He is the god of purest and most true love. He was the one who united people, producing sympathy in them. Eros also liked to live with the muses and caritas in Olympus.
Himeros was the twin brother of Eros.
He is known as the god of sexual desire, of carnal love, which was the consequence of unrequited love. Together, Himeros and Eros, were constant companions of the mother. There are several works of art that depict the two with Aphrodite.
The third son, Pothos, was the god of mad, irrational, inconsequential passion, of well-known ardent love. He was part of Aphrodite's procession and always carried a vineyard. Therefore, some say that the god also represents wine.
But this role is more recognized by Dionísio - god of wine, parties and pleasure.
And the last of the fillets that make up Erotes is Anteros. With power similar to Eros, he is literally the antithesis of his brother, the anti-Eros.
He worked to separate aspirants for love. He was the god of vengeful love, of unrequited love. He did not allow people to have much contact or to get close. He is depicted carrying a gold bat and lead arrows.
Also, derived from Erotes we have eroticism, which expresses the character or tendency to what is erotic, representing sexuality in an explicit way.
