As I am Greek Mythology geek, I can't help but add that in the original (as original as you can get for a myth anyway), Pasiphae was a Cretan goddess and the bull she mated with was actually a Cretan god. Then the Cretans were conquered by the Greeks and the Greeks took the myth way too literally.
Also, why would Minos have sex a second time, after venomous creatures came out his dick? The hell?
