"The result was a hermaphrodite named Agdistis." That's wrong! The result wasn't an intersexual, but a bothsexual that killed everyone as he/she liked! -- Robodoc.at 19:10, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Spivak pronouns

I am removing the use of Spivak pronouns such as "hir" from this article, because this type of gender-neutral language is very unfamiliar among the general public, who are the target audience of this article. Dcoetzee 22:38, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

And are utterly ridiculous at that.--LordSnow (talk) 01:31, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong story?

Whether it is or not, the article as it is cites nothing. Your link gives us Pausanias, Heyschius, Strabo, and Arnobius as sources. Someone should do some leg work and do a re-write.--LordSnow (talk) 01:30, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
