Editing The Sodomites (section)

=== Sodomite Titles & Symbology ===
Sodomites have several ways to communicate membership status and purpose. A primary method is symbology that holds specific meanings. A common symbol for Sodomites is the number "8" with three stars formed in a curve underneath the number and a depiction of the Greek word for "Love", '''ἔρως''' (érōs)<sup>[[The Sodomites#fn-1|[1]]]</sup> resting within the top loop of the number 8. Another symbol for Sodomites is a cartooned depiction of the God Eros.

Prominent female Sodomites are sometimes given the title of Little Hathor. Hathor being the Egyptian Goddess of sensuality and attraction. The Sodomites accept and venerate the Ancient Egyptian culture as being a "mother" culture of the Greeks and Romans.

'''Μικρά Ἅθωρ'''; (''Mikrā́ Háthōr'')  — "Little Hathor"

Senior members sometimes gain distinctive titles among the Sodomites. For instance, a male member who has achieved a new role within the cult will sometimes begin to be referred to as a son or daughter of Eros.

'''Example: If your name is Sam, Sodomites may call you "Sam-Eros" or Samiero. Samiera is its feminine form'''.

More examples of this practice include: Jamieros, Gregieros, Ashlieros, Brittieros, etc.

Other ways Sodomites show the affinity to Eros is by attaching "Son/Daughter of Eros" to their names.

Example: '''Λούθερ Σόλτ, υἱὸς Ἔρωτος'''

(''Louthér Sólt, huiós Érōtos'')  — "Luther Sault, son of Eros"
