Description: Revisiting the stories of trans characters, Caeneus and Iphis, in Ovid's Metamorphoses. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content! CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
