Sexuality is not only about the sexual nature of both men and women, but it is also about the roles of men and women according to society. A plain and simple way to pu

On the other hand, there is the male character in medieval literature. Unlike his versatile and forever changing female counterpart, he is the same at all times in most medieval literature. Of course, he is indeed boring. Besides his specific character flaw and his specific “supernatural specialty”, he is just simply the same. He is so common that he can be taken out of any medieval literature text and replace another male character in an entirely different story. The plot will stay the same because he will be chivalrous, heroic, humble, but also slightly prideful, and so secure in his sexuality that he has a couple of feminine moments, and he is extremely loyal. There are only a few medieval male characters that will be excluded from this list, but they are the exception.

Again, in “The Chevalier Who Made Cunts Talk” the women are representative of Middle Age ideas about women and sex. Two of the three naked women grant the Chevalier sexual gifts. They do not, as one might expect, give him practical gifts like money or long life, but instead they assume that their sexual gifts are the greatest they could give.

It was her extreme personality that caused her husband to have a reaction. It was Lady Hateful’s disregard for her sexuality or conventional female role that caused Sir Hate to be riled up. Her actions are the center of the story and Lady Hateful had enough control of her husband that she knew how to push his buttons and make him mad. She controlled his mind will and emotions. Her sexuality took over his soul. She probably wanted Sir Hate to stop being such a saint anyway and beat her to show her who was the boss and who wore the pants in the relationship. No matter what Lady Hateful’s motives were, she still accomplished to have control over her husband and cause him to react to her actions.
