women invented the entire genre of monster-fucking romance, let’s not act like this variation on the trope is anything special
The women drawn to RFK Jr. see an intoxicating cocktail of romance and danger—whether it's getting attacked by a yak or texting about taking metaphorical bullets for each other.
But to most others, Kennedy is a reckless conspiracy theorist whose appetite for danger will result in a sicker America.

The inexplicable sex appeal of RFK Jr.
How can such ferocious desire be attached to this man? Two memoirs by the women who love him offer some clues.

Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.
We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.

While the Greek gods eat ambrosia and drink nectar, the Norse gods prefer a heartier meal. Every night the giant boar Sæhrímnir is slaughtered for food, and every morning he is reborn. Also, mead instead of milk pours from the udders of the great goat Heiðrún.

In Welsh folklore, the little fairies often eat poisonous mushrooms and a "fairy butter" found in the crevices of limestone rocks. The fairies use illusions to make the food's appearance and taste become more appetizing. More charmingly, fairy gloves are made from foxglove flowers.

The Poetic and Prose Eddas say that Surtr of Muspelheim (the land of elemental fire) will lead a fiery army to destroy the Norse gods. As both Eddas are from Iceland, some scholars theorize that Surtr and his army were inspired by Iceland's destructive volcanoes.

St. Collen was a Welsh saint who was invited by the fairy king Gwyn ap Nudd to feast with him at his lovely fairy court on Glastonbury Tor. Collen revealed that he knew that the court's red colors derived from hellfire and the blue colors from death's chill. The court then vanished.

In Welsh folklore, the Witches of Caer Lloyw are "maiden hags" skilled in both witchcraft and warfare. They teach combat skills to the Arthurian knight Peredur (Sir Percival). However, when he discovers that they had tormented his relatives, Peredur takes revenge.
