I Think Perhaps My Hottest Radfem Take Is That Gay Men Are Not Our Allies. Not Wanting To Have Sex With

me, as a child: all the asians look the same

me, as a 15 y.o. liberal: NO YOU CAN'T SAY ALL THE ASIANS LOOK THE SAME THIS IS RACIST YOU HAVE NO RESPECT AND DON'T DESERVE TO SPEAK

me, as a 20 y.o. junior Asia-Pacific researcher: all the asians look the same and their websites are cursed with the same spell

The thing people miss about medieval smells and lighting a lot of time is the fact that everything is fire powered. All their heat and all their light. Now I don't know if you have ever been to a place where all you have had is fire but it smells. It smells strong. The smell of fire will pretty much drown out most other scents. So it is likely you wouldn't always smell the person next to you, especially if the wood was wet and made a lot of smoke. You are going to stink like it for days even under modern circumstances where we bathe more regularly and also don't have to continually do this. Don't get me wrong, a city stink will still out stink it with the sheet amount of poop, but it is perfectly okay to imagine a medieval bar where everything just smells smoky.

This fire effect is also why you can always find shady corners in taverns. They didn't have high ceilings. They had some torches/candles/fireplace in a low ceilinged room. It is crazily easy for a pickpocket or anyone to just linger in there, especially once people have been drinking, and just not be noticed. Sure your eyes adjust, but everyone has different night vision and it all depends on how rich of a place you are at as to how much fire is available. Maybe if you are lucky it is a full moon.

Any time I catch myself thinking it's weirdly specific that stories involving the beheading game were an entire genre of medieval literature, I remind myself that the TV Tropes page for media where the cast get shrunk really small and go inside someone's body in a tiny submarine is at the time of this posting nearly 300 entries long
