Neither, she is a Greek goddess, but yes, her son Eros lay with Psyche and her grand daughter Hêdonê was of that union.

What is whiteism?
Prior to 1660, Negroes that are White, were called Leukoethropes and Leukoethiopians. Leuko is ALL of the word White in Greek. In 1660, a Catholic Jesuit priest by the name of Baltazar Tellez, had spent considerable time in Ethiopia, to then so-called coin Albino, which was initially applied to a Negro that is White. 60% of the word WHITE in Latin (ALBUS), was applied to Negroes that are White...and accepted...because all Negroes were thought to be 60% human. INO was added to ALB as a result of an alleged female named Ino, that was instructed to cover her own children in Black so they could be killed, but instead covered her own children in White. After the event, that woman is said to have been renamed Leucothea (a name containing all of the word White in Greek). ALBINO and ALBINISM are NOT VALID terms or words, but destructive programs that serve to disconnect and pervert individuals...because those ill terms DO NOT permit understanding of those that are white. Those that are without pigment in their skin and hair, and therefore White, that exist in all races, have the condition WHITEISM. To learn more, visit www.whiteism.com
