Earlier than 1348…since the year dot when In 1 Timothy 2:9-10, Paul tells Timothy, “… women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, but with what is proper for women who profess godliness–with good works.’

Sounds like Paul doesn’t like women. Look at what the Priests, Archibishops, Bishops, Cardinals and Pope adorn themselves with?
Red Gucci slippers anybody?

It has always been a powerful tool to enforce patriarchal control and a strict gender binary. Corsets constrict, long skirts get in the way, veils keep women invisible, and plunging necklines keep them overexposed.

“Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words…
Telling my whole life with his words…
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he’d found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on”
*Roberta Flack; Lori Leibermann
