From "shagging in the fields" to the scandalous behavior of monks and nuns, they reveal how medieval folk navigated the strict moral tightrope of the Catholic Church while embracing a surprisingly progressive view of female pleasure and sexual agency. The conversation dives deep into the "Two Seed Theory" of reproduction, the reality of courtly love as an excuse for extramarital affairs, and the shocking truth behind the invention of the chastity belt. We also explore how medieval women used herbal abortifacients like Pennyroyal and how "horny aunts" were prayed out of purgatory. It’s an eye-opening look at a side of history that the Victorians tried their best to bury. 0:00 Introduction 1:05 The Church’s Moral Tightrope 3:02 The Science of the Female Orgasm 4:10 Forbidden Days: When You Couldn’t Have Sex 5:42 Why Women Were Considered "Sex-Crazed" 8:01 The Myth of the Chastity Belt 10:05 Peasant Shagging vs. Royal Arranged Marriages 13:07 The Best Places for a Secret tryst 15:12 Pilgrimage: The Medieval "Lads on Tour" 18:22 Sodomy and Queer Life in Monasteries 23:28 Medieval Contraception and Abortion 33:25 Power, Widows, and the Wife of Bath 41:35 Purgatory and the "Good Death" #Medieval #EleanorJanega #History You can now become a History Hit member right here on YouTube!
