Why is Aprhodite a hero? Seriously, why?

Aphrodite's reasons to cheat on Hephaestus were just his ugliness, sure she didn't wanted the marriage and that's fine, but it doesn't justify her dislike or treat on her husband, specially when most versions of mythology portrays him as bein an humble and nice person. She also seemed to have an like for deities who were brutal or violent like Ares, and had no problem with kidnapping mortal men to her pleasure, and the men were obviously victim of her sexual inducement but weren't there by their choice, she also wasn't the best mother, giving she punished her son Eros just because he had an beautiful wife.

And like many other gods of classical mythology, she saw mortals as nothing, she was devoted only to her own pleasure.
