Hi MH,

Adonis was a figure in Greek mythology, whose name is used today as a symbol for a youthful handsome man (e.g. the office Adonis).
MH -- I got the feeling from your posts about this Adonis poster that you admire the fact that he claims to be very good looking and to have lots of women and fast cars...I wonder why you would admire that and find him "mysterious"...especially given your views on the role of sex in human life and also given that he could be projecting any identity he wanted behind the cover of internet...Also, if he indeed has fast cars etc. he could easily pay for these sprays. Personally, I would rather give away sprays to the lady that is trying to help her autistic son rather than a (man who claims to be a) "sex symbol"...But of course they are your spray and you can choose to do anything you want with them.


ADONIS, in classical mythology, a youth of remarkable beauty, the favourite of Aphrodite.

For reasons we won't go into, APHRODITE turned his mother Myrrha into a pregnant myrrh tree. When it split and the baby was revealed, APHRODITE was enchanted. "Ooh, he's gorgeous. I'm saving him for later", she decided.

So she put him in a box and checked him in at the Underworld Bank Vault under the care of PERSEPHONE, who took a quick peek and had the same thought.

When ADONIS grew old enough to be 'Gods Gift to Women', PERSEPHONE refused to hand him over. The case went to arbitration and CALLIOPE was asked to bring about a settlement.

Her final judgment was this: For four months of the year, he would live with APHRODITE. Then she must hand him over for four months with PERSEPHONE. For the remaining four months the choice was up to him.

As APHRODITE was the first to find him, she had the first go. Using her girdle of desire, she declared that ADONIS loved only her and PERSEPHONE could take a running jump.

So PERSEPHONE took a running jump to ARES (who was very struck on APHRODITE himself) and said: "Your fancy woman has got herself a mortal lover. And you don't stand a chance, he's absolutely gorgeous!"

ARES was furious, and being of a boorish disposition, changed himself into a boar and killed ADONIS in a hunting accident. This resulted in much hair-pulling and scratching and shrieking in Olympus.

Eventually ZEUS decided it was time for a bit of peace. He declared that ADONIS was not totally dead, but could spend six months with each of them.
