    Also cause mythology guy here, Oedipus gets a bad rap. It's not a story about a dude who wants to fuck his mom, quite the opposite, some seer or whatever predicts hes gonna so he travels as far as possible from his parents, starts a new life elsewhere, marries a MILF and then it turns out she is in fact his real mom and he was adopted. It's a you can't escape your fate story not a dude wants to nail his mom story.
