I certainly don't feel attacked. In addition, I agree with you in most cases. I just don't agree here.
I'm not even saying that something really prevented women, maybe just prejudices and customs of the time. I'm just of the opinion that it wasn't common.
And to the game. A poor woman who takes care of her business (bakery, stables, mayorship, cooking drugs...) has 6 or more children. The father of these children is still whoring somewhere and making other children with other women. No help with kids or household. In addition, she has to be at his will at any time, if she is not, he will drug her with a cake. Tell me when does that poor woman have time to shave her bush?
