Poseidon was said to have had many lovers of both sexes. His consort was [[Amphitrite]], an ancient sea-goddess and nymph, daughter of [[Nereus]] and [[Doris (Oceanid)|Doris]]. In one account, attributed to [[Eratosthenes]], Poseidon wished to wed Amphitrite, but she fled from him and hid with [[Atlas (mythology)|Atlas]]. Poseidon sent out many to find her, and it was a dolphin who tracked her down. The dolphin persuaded Amphitrite to accept Poseidon as her husband, and eventually took charge of their wedding. Poseidon then put him [[Delphinus|among the stars]] as a reward for his good services.<ref>[[Gaius Julius Hyginus|Hyginus]], ''Astronomica'' [https://topostext.org/work/207#2.17.1 2.17.1]</ref> [[Oppian]] says that the dolphin betrayed Amphitrite's whereabouts to Poseidon, and he carried off Amphitrite against her will to marry her.<ref>[[Oppian]], ''Halieutica'' [https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.233333/page/n323/mode/2up?view=theater 1.38]</ref> Together they had a son named [[Triton (mythology)|Triton]], a [[merman]].<ref>[[Hesiod]], ''[[Theogony]]'' [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0130%3Acard%3D901 930–933]</ref> 

A mortal woman named [[Cleito]] once lived on an isolated island; Poseidon fell in love with the [[human]] mortal and created a dwelling [[sanctuary]] at the top of a hill near the middle of the [[island]] and surrounded the dwelling with rings of water and land to protect her. She gave birth to five sets of twin boys; the firstborn, [[Atlas (mythology)#King of Atlantis|Atlas]], became the first ruler of [[Atlantis]].<ref name="Plato1971Penguin" /><ref name="ReferenceB" /><ref name="ReferenceC" />

Poseidon had an affair with [[Alope]], his granddaughter through [[Cercyon of Eleusis|Cercyon]], his son and King of [[Eleusina|Eleusis]], begetting [[Hippothoon]]. Cercyon had his daughter buried alive but Poseidon turned her into the local spring.<ref>Hard, [https://books.google.com/books?id=r1Y3xZWVlnIC&pg=PA344 p. 344]</ref>

Poseidon was the father of many heroes. He is thought to have fathered the famed [[Theseus]], [[Bellerophon]], [[Alebion]] and [[Bergion]]. Not all of Poseidon's children were human, though. His other children include the [[giant (mythology)|giants]] [[Aloadae|Otos and Ephialtae]][[Polyphemus]] (the [[Cyclopes|Cyclops]]) and, finally, [[Amycus]] was the son of Poseidon and the [[Bithynia]]n [[nymph]] [[Melia (consort of Poseidon)|Melia]].<ref>[[Apollonius of Rhodes|Apollonius Rhodius]], 2.1 ff. & 2.94 ff. with [[scholia]]</ref> The philosopher [[Plato]] was held by his fellow ancient Greeks to have traced his descent to the sea-God Poseidon through his father [[Ariston of Athens|Ariston]] and his mythic predecessors the demigod kings [[Codrus]] and [[Melanthus]].<ref>Great Books of the Western World, Plato's Dialogues. Biographical Note</ref><ref>Diogenes Laertius Plato 1</ref>

Poseidon engaged in homesexual relationships as welll. He took the young [[Nerites (mythology)|Nerites]], the son of [[Nereus]] and [[Doris (Oceanid)|Doris]] (and thus brother to Amphitrite) as a lover. Nerites was also Poseidon's charioteer, and impressed all marine creatures with his speed. But one day the sun god, Helios, turned Nerites into a shellfish. [[Claudius Aelianus|Aelian]], who recorded this tale as told by mariners, says it is not clear why Helios did this, but theorizes he might have been offended somehow, or that he and Poseidon were rivals in love, and Helios wanted Nerites to travel among the constellations instead of the sea-monsters. From the love between Poseidon and Nerites was born [[Anteros]], mutual love.<ref name="Nerites">{{Cite web |title=Aelian : On Animals, 14 |url=http://www.attalus.org/translate/animals14.html#28 |access-date=2023-01-11 |website=www.attalus.org}}</ref>

Other male lovers of Poseidon included [[Pelops]] and [[Patroclus]].<ref>[[Ptolemy Hephaestion]], ''New History'', 1 in [[Photius]], 190</ref>

In an archaic myth, Poseidon once pursued [[Demeter]]. She spurned his advances, turning herself into a [[Mare (horse)|mare]] so that she could hide in a herd of horses; he saw through the deception and became a [[Horse|stallion]], captured and [[rape]]d her.<ref>[[Pausanias (geographer)|Pausanias]], [http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0525.tlg001.perseus-eng1:8.25.5 8.25.5]</ref> Their child was a [[horse]], Arion, which was capable of human speech.<ref>[[Pausanias (geographer)|Pausanias]], [http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0525.tlg001.perseus-eng1:8.25.7 8.25.7]</ref> 

According to [[Hesiod]]'s ''[[Theogony]]'', Poseidon "lay down in a soft meadow among spring flowers" with the [[Gorgon]] [[Medusa]] and two offspring, the winged horse [[Pegasus]] and the warrior [[Chrysaor]], were born when the hero [[Perseus]] cut off Medusa's head.<ref>''Theogony'' 270–281 (Most, [https://www.loebclassics.com/view/hesiod-theogony/2018/pb_LCL057.25.xml pp. 24, 25]), where Poseidon is referred to as the "dark-haired one".</ref>[[Ovid]] however says that Medusa was originally a very beautiful maiden whom Poseidon raped inside the temple of Athena. Athena, furious over the sacrilege, changed the beautiful girl into a monster.<ref>[[Ovid]], ''[[Metamorphoses]]'' [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.02.0028%3Abook%3D4%3Acard%3D706 4.794–803]</ref> Elsewhere in the ''[[Metamorphoses]]'', Ovid says that Poseidon seduced Medusa in the form of a bird.<ref>[[Ovid]], ''[[Metamorphoses]]'' [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.02.0028%3Abook%3D6%3Acard%3D87 6.134]</ref>

When Zeus fell in love and pursued the goddess [[Asteria]], she transformed into a quail and flung herself into the sea to escape being raped by him. Poseidon then, equally rapacious, picked up the chase where Zeus had left it and chased Asteria with the aim to force himself on her, so Asteria had to transform for a second time to save herself, this time into a small rocky island named [[Delos]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=Kramer Richards |first1=Arlene |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=VUdaDwAAQBAJ |title=Myths of Mighty Women: Their Application in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy |last2=Spira |first2=Lucille |date=2015 |publisher=Karnac Books Ltd. |isbn=9781782203049 |location=New York, NY |page=[https://books.google.com/books?id=VUdaDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT80 80]}}</ref>[[File:Lattanzio Gambara (c. 1530-Brescia 1574) - Neptune and Caenis - RCIN 401218 - Royal Collection.jpg|thumb|right|260px|Lattanzio Gambara (c. 1530-Brescia 1574) - Poseidon-Neptune and Caenis]]One day, Poseidon spotted [[Caeneus|Caenis]] walking by the seashore, caught her and raped her. Having enjoyed her greatly, he offered her a wish, any wish. Traumatized, Caenis wished to be transformed into a man, so that she would never experience assault again. Poseidon fulfilled her request and [[transsexualism|changed her into a male warrior]], who then took the name Caeneus.<ref>[[Ovid]], ''[[Metamorphoses]]'' [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.02.0028%3Abook%3D12%3Acard%3D146 12.195-199]; [[Bibliotheca (Pseudo-Apollodorus)|Apollodorus]], [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0022%3Atext%3DEpitome%3Abook%3DE%3Achapter%3D1%3Asection%3D22 Epitome.1.22]</ref>

A mortal woman named [[Tyro]] was married to [[Cretheus]] (with whom she had one son, [[Aeson]]), but loved [[Enipeus (mythology)|Enipeus]], a [[Water deity|river god]]. She pursued Enipeus, who refused her advances. One day, Poseidon, filled with lust for Tyro, disguised himself as Enipeus, and from their union were born the heroes [[Pelias]] and [[Neleus]], twin boys.<ref>Smith, [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.04.0104%3Aalphabetic+letter%3DT%3Aentry+group%3D26%3Aentry%3Dtyro-bio-1 s.v. Tyro]</ref>

Another time Poseidon once fell in love with a Phocian woman, [[Corone (crow)|Corone]], the daughter of [[Coronaeus]] as she was walking along the shore. He attempted to court her, but she rejected him, and ran away. Poseidon then chased her down with the aim to rape her. Athena, witnessing all that, took pity in the girl and changed her into a crow.<ref>[[Ovid]], ''[[Metamorphoses]]'' 2.569-88</ref>
