Thank you. I must look that up to add to my medieval books collection. I have a “Reader”that has many original documents. Those on women were very sexist.

A favorite book I have is a day planner that was never used which is full of Romance writings (I call it my “dirty book.”) People think we’re obsessed with sex. They were, too. It was just more literary. I blushed while reading some of the poems.

Women likely took sexist rhetoric for granted, and concentrated on social and financial power instead.

Duke William of Aquitaine was a frisky old dog :-). It's funny how each new generation thinks it discovered sex!
