Some clear sexist bias adding this, as this is no longer fact and hasn't been for some time, and the only citations are old and out of date to the new research and evidence discovered about the earlier matriarchies not only in Greece and elsewhere. Specifically the "or elsewhere" gives blatant evidence to the nature of adding this, diverging to not just try to stomp out the facts about it here, but everywhere in one fell swoop. If they wanted to add a counter point, they need to do so from a neutral perspective not the blatant sexist one we see here, keep it strictly to the topic, and make sure the timeline of the difference research and different evidence for both views are fully presented. But clearly the editor that added this isn't neutral or wanting all sides heard and wholesale dismisses research with no actual facts. 96.31.190.97 ( talk) 00:48, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
These are the cited sources:
As you can see, besides the two cites from the 1970s, there also five others from 1991 thru 2007, which seem recent enough to me. I don't know whether these source represent the current scholarly consensus—although the EB cite seems to indicate that they do—I would need to see other sources which represent a different view, to evaluate this. Can you provide any? Paul August ☎ 13:00, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

There is no ancient myth to support this claim. Whoever wrote it in the first place did not cite any sources. I searched all of myths regarding Zeus and Hera's marriage and there was no rape in them.
"The statue of Hera is seated on a throne; it is huge, made of gold and ivory, and is a work of Polycleitus. She is wearing a crown with Graces and Seasons worked upon it, and in one hand she carries a pomegranate and in the other a sceptre. About the pomegranate I must say nothing, for its story is somewhat of a holy mystery. The presence of a cuckoo seated on the sceptre they explain by the story that when Zeus was in love with Hera in her maidenhood he changed himself into this bird, and she caught it to be her pet. This tale and similar legends about the gods I relate without believing them, but I relate them nevertheless" Pausanias, Description of Greece 2.17.4 Zeus transformed into a cuckoo, Hera kept him as a pet. There is no transformation back into himself. rape or marriage out of shame. Therefore, I removed this sentence.
