AITA for killing 108 men then insulting their parents?
I know the title looks bad but let me explain, l(45M) am married to my wife(45F), Penelope. After a war, l tried to reunite with her, it took me 20 years but l got back to my home in Ithaca. When l arrived there, 108 men were not only trying to marry my wife by claiming my death but also eating my food and disrespecting my son(21M). I was wearing a beggers disguise thanks to my patron goddess(??F) but l revealed myself to my son and we reunited. l talked with my wife and she held a contest to see who would string my bow and shoot through 12 axes, she then went to sleep and l won the contest. After winning l got rid of the disguise and started to kill the suitors with my son, then l reunited with my wife but the suitors' parents were upset. Then my patron goddess came and convinced the parents not to kill me, after they obeyed her(like a little bitch) l started to make fun of them and my dad(idkM) said l was being disrespectful, so AITA?

This is how Penelope is first PHYSICALLY introduced in the Odyssey as it's when she first speaks.
(Fagles, Book 1)
This is how the other women whom Odysseus gets with (aka assaulted by) are first physically introduced:
(Fagles, Book 10)
(Fagles, Book 5)
The two goddesses are singing during their introduction while the woman he loves says to stop, granted at the bard but I just think it's interesting. I'm definitely thinking it wasn't on purpose by Homer but I wanted to point it out.
Penelope never needs to enchant/sing to Odysseus to "lure" and/or entice him because that's where he wants to be in the first place.

thinking about how in the odyssey, love comes in the form of recognition. to be loved is to be known and to be known is to be loved.

Odysseus (beggar form): yeah i can barely remember meeting odysseus it was 20 years ago
Also Odysseus: *describes the exact pin on the cloak odysseus was wearing on that day 20 years ago*
meanwhile Penelope is just sobbing
