Comment by Papyta on The Crown I Will Seize - Chapter 3

@Baby Especially in such sexist times as back then, unfortunately, there's nothing a woman could do without a supportive man...

@Lovefool At least not in public, and in the rare, (exceedingly) rare cases, in which they were allowed to do anything, they'd play it off as a man's work - think about how many women had to use male pseudonyms f.e. - or they'd not publicise it. History lesson/addendum; 18th century France before the French Revolution had a lot - okay a few or a handful, female philosophers, but they were hardly or not known at all to the grand(er) public, because sexism and the need for 'lesser' men to always compensate. P.S.: Just wanted to write all of this, so please do not mind too much.
