On the island of Cyprus, there lives a sculptor: Pygmalion.
He was so disgusted by the Propoetides' activities of sordid indecency that he swore not to take a wife. In the meantime, he set to work carving a statue of a woman out of ivory. The statue he made was incredibly lifelike – and incredibly beautiful. In fact, Pygmalion fell in love with it. He started giving it jewelry, caressing it, even taking it to bed with him.
When the festival of Venus rolled around, he went to her altar and prayed for a wife "like" the statue he had made. Instead, when he got home, Pygmalion discovered that Venus had in fact transformed the ivory statue into a real live woman.
But hold up just a moment. Pygmalion literally built his lover. He molded her and shaped her and designed her to be exactly what he wanted
Is Pygmalion going to go into business building his male customers the girl of their dreams? Will he build men too? What does this even mean for humanity?!
If everyone was just able to build their own lover then the population would surplus, babies would possibly be born as ivory stone, who even knows?
Basically, Pygmalion is either the smartest man alive or the worst hypocrite. You can decide for yourself.
