The Metamorphoses/YMMV

• High Octane Nightmare Fuel: The birth and emergence of Bacchus. It starts with Zeus raping Semele. Then Hera manipulates events, forcing Zeus to burn her alive and bear her infant son in his leg. After the baby god Bacchus is born, he intimidates Acoetes into becoming his high priest heads to Thebes. There, he whips the entire female population into a frenzy and forces them to rip the king Pentheus limb from limb. The crowner? The leader of this group is Agave, Pentheus's mother.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: At the beginning of the poem, when recounting the Ages of the World and saying how much his time period sucks, Ovid wishes that he were born either earlier (and been around when gods and heroes were) or later (as presumably things would have to start improving later on, right?) Now fast forward to the modern age... the standard of living is most definitely higher now than it was then.
• Les Yay: Subverted. In Iphis and Ianthe's tale, the two girls are married as husband and wife, but Iphis has serious issues about how she'll be able to fulfill her role. Cue to magical Gender Bender. Amusingly enough, however, there's far more Les Yay fuel from Ianthe's part, who ignores Iphis' true gender.
• Unfortunate Implications / Values Dissonance: Iphis' love for Ianthe is portrayed as a sort of unbearable wish against nature, and only after becoming a man she can be happy.
