Misconceptions about the Middle Ages (Part 2)
See Part 1 here: https://youtube.com/shorts/diOFGp75LSw?feature=share
Yesterday, we discussed three common misconceptions of the Middle Ages. Today we’ll continue with a few more.
It’s inaccurate that woman had no rights in Middle Ages. Women could inherit, buy and sell property, and even run a business. Women’s rights would actually diminish in the Early Modern Period. While they did not have as many rights as men and were certainly denied major rights (like choosing who they’d marry), the idea that they were completely denied rights isn’t an accurate representation.

The idea that medieval people didn’t practice good hygiene is another misconception. Combs and personal grooming devices were used, and people did take baths and tried to keep clean. Hands and faces were washed with water before and after meals. Some nobility even used rose petals to scent the water.

Another more humorous misconception is that they believed tomatoes to be poison. Tomatoes weren’t around during that time in Europe. It wasn’t until the 16th century that they were imported from South America and soon became common in most areas of Europe.
