Wives Have Never Been Chattel Under Christian Or English Common Law Not since the Middle Ages anyway...

People keep telling me that marriage no longer has value now women are no longer β€œtheir husbands' property/slaves.”

Unfortunately for them this is technically incorrect (the worst kind of incorrect) and hasn't been correct since the Middle Ages.

Rainbow in a dark sky.

Well I never... a rainbow appeared before sunrise, created just by the light of an orange and red glow in the east. There's a first time for everything. I've certainly never see such a thing before.

What's funny is this is the same critique conservatives used to make about postmodernists, poststructuralists, critical theorists, and other leftist theory writers. But when the obscurantist language is in the service of far-right conclusions, it's suddenly okay.
