So 700 years ago was considered modern day France? Yeah, I guess shit hasn't changed much in that country since then.

and there is a whole scene of incel women full of hatred. Sometimes some of them even commit mass murder. And the hundreds of men who get killed by thir partners or ex partners. And the streamers who tell young women how to degrade men and that's totally normal to beat them.
