Examples of Hot Moms in Oral Tradition, Folklore, Myths and Legends include:

• Classical Mythology:
  • Given her... promiscuity, Aphrodite had several children, including her sons Phobos and Deimos (via Ares), her daughter Harmonia (also Ares), Hermaphroditus (Via Hermes), and another daughter, Rhode (via Poseidon). Some versions add the four Erotes (Eros, Anteros, Pothos, and Himeros) to the list of children she had with Ares.
  • While rarely described as "hot" as Aphrodite, Demeter clearly qualifies too, and also a savage Mama Bear after Persephone was abducted. Also, as a result of her fling with Poseidon when both assumed the form of horses (long story) she bore a son named Arion, who was a horse who could talk.
  • Helen of Troy, the Face that Launched a Thousand Ships; she had one daughter with her first husband - Hermione - and in some versions, three sons, Aethiolas, Maraphius, and Pleisthenes. After she eloped with Paris, they had three sons Bunomus, Corythus, and Idaeus, plus another daughter also named Helen.
  • Achilles mother was Tethis, queen of the nereids (sea nymphs) who were always depicted as beautiful.
  • Perseus' mother Danae was known to be very beautiful, and he was known to be protective of her and wary of any would-be suitors. The myth where the hero had to slay Medusa and recover her head was a Uriah Gambit orchestrated by an evil king who wanted him out of the way so he could marry Danae.
