So I think that there's a lot of room for nuancing medieval gender but also every single time I see a "women actually, actively fought as a commonplace thing/were knights in the Middle Ages" post my eye actively twitches because (1) they're always usually based on flawed at best sources and (2) if our way of giving medieval women interiority and agency ultimately comes down to "look! Swords! Aristocratic privilege!", there's basically no hope. Pack it up, it's over, feminist scholarship since the 80s was fun while it lasted, we had a good run, but we failed.

I think there’s really a conversation to be had about people harassing others to the point of breaking under the guise of being “morally good” and “protecting others”. I’ve never felt protected or safe seeing people like that. I think “oh, if I step even a little out of line I’m next”.

This seems counterproductive to your goals, how are you going to get ice cream if there is no earth? Are you an idiot stupid of sorts?
