Besides it being easier to list the sons Zeus didn't produce, it would be easier to list the animals Zeus didn't take the form of two seduce women.
Thinking about that, women in ancient Greece must have been very easy to seduce.
~~Seduce~~ Rape.
*FTFY
Hmm, yes, maybe. But to be honest, they were probably just trying to hide affairs and not really shagging Zeus. But don't quote me on this!
Male gods raping mortal woman was canon.
As in, nearly every Greek myth with a male god and a mortal woman featured rape. They weren't coy about it.
Rape or attempted rape. There was the whole Io(?) situation where Zeus was thwarted by Io running away and Hera being done with his shit.
