The Death Spooge of Uranus

Go on-- say it three times fast.  

As I wind down on volume 2 of "The Truth About Sex" trilogy, I'll be coughing up random bits of the research that's wandered through my consciousness these last 4-5 years of planning the books.

For volume 1, Sex and the Self,  I turned up some wonderful creation myths.  This one didn't make it into the book (I went with a kinder, gentler ejaculating  god whose semen spurts created rivers) .   Still,  I thought you just might want to have the "spooge of Uranus" in your lexicon.   I believe "foam" is their euphemism for big creamy gushes of cum.  ;)

The next time Uranus came to make love to Gaia, which he did by stretching out all over the Earth, Cronus sprang up from his hiding place, brandished his sickle, and attacked and castrated father Uranus. Additional offspring sprang from the spilled blood and organ of Uranus: Giants, Erinyes (Furies), Meliae -- and most spectacularly, Aphrodite, who was born from the foam.
