The Amazons appear throughout Greek myths and legends, but their traits remain roughly the same: They hated all men, lived outside the bounds of regular Greek society, and, most importantly, they were the daughters of Ares, the Greek god of war. The story goes that the Amazons were so dedicated to warfare that they cut off their right breast so they could throw their spears better (according to Tufts University, the word “Amazon” roughly means “missing one breast” in Greek). For what it’s worth, there’s no evidence that having breasts makes you a poor spear-thrower, but this detail definitely makes it clear you don’t want to mess with the Amazons.
