Their climate is not calm and relaxing, or tropical like some climates. It's very rough and mountainous, and could be perceived as more dangerous.]]> 2018-03-22 16:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245112829 s943590 https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245116322 Usually, women are in charge of the housework duties, while men are head of household and go out hunting, fighting, trading, and farming. But while men are away at war, women have to step up to be the head of the household. They will be the ones going out to hunt and farm for their family.]]> 2018-03-22 16:55:34 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245116322 s943590 https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245116703 2018-03-22 16:56:13 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245116703 s943590 https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245116897 2018-03-22 16:56:29 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245116897 s943590 https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245131742 Thrym had stolen Thor's hammer and would not return unless he was granted Freya's hand in marriage. Freya had declined the offer because she would not dare be unfaithful to her own husband. So Thor dressed up in a wedding dress, pretending to be Freya, and married Thrym, who did not question how she looked and acted like a man. It only made Thrym fall more in love. This shows how men have a preference toward their women, which is a more dominant, strong woman, more manly because they want someone that is able to fight, and endure the harsh environment they live in.]]> 2018-03-22 17:21:16 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245131742 s943590 https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245141209 Frost Giants are creatures of evil that often appear in Norse Myths. They are defined as a race of monstrous creatures who started out as icicles and became a dominant Norse force.

To them, winter probably isn't the nicest weather they'd like to live in, so it's looked down upon as if it's bad. In the story, they have turned the cold and icy weather into this evil creature doing bad deeds. ]]> 2018-03-22 17:41:07 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245144692 s943590 https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245145251 In Scandinavia, they are accustomed to the cold and harsh winters every year. They know the ins and outs of the climate they've grown up in, and this effects the myths and stories that arise from their culture. Because their winters are full of cold and ice, it's bound to take place in most parts of their lives, including a creature of evil that appears often in Norse myth: The Frost Giant, which are creatures that are relatively made of ice.]]> 2018-03-22 17:42:05 UTC https://padlet.com/s943590/d5luj1pded5y/wish/245145251
