They didn't have sex in the middle ages. It was a sin. That's why we don't exist as humanity died out in 1284 because nobody made babies.

[Magnus Aurelius, Bright Lord]

For anyone serious about Christian morality, sex was not an option. Celibacy was the ideal way to conduct one’s life and sex was condoned only as part of a marriage. Punishments could range from years of doing penance to death.

But it wasn’t just the Church that disapproved of adultery and fornication, it was also noblemen, who wanted to be certain that any children of their marriage were, in fact, their own. One real life story of courtly love gone wrong involved King Phillip of France (also known as “Phillip the Fair”). He discovered that his three daughters were having intimate relations with some of his knights and had the men publicly disemboweled. His daughters were then sent to monasteries and one of them was possibly murdered.

In reality, there was a more lenient attitude, especially in rural populations where sexual dalliances were routine. Often the priests would try to force the “sinners” to marry, and all would be forgiven. If marriage was out of the question, punishments could involve years of penance.

So sex could be a possibility in-game, but it would have to be a rare thing I supposed.

Well, that example is a little misleading.

He was a king after all.

And I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be happy to see my daughters were having 'intimate relations' with randoms

And the king has the power to have people executed.

Brothels and ♥♥♥♥♥ horses were common so pre/extra martial sex did happen. But yes in theory it was forbidden. But as many things if you don't get caught it doesn't count.

What exactly is misleading ?

That is historically true of every "prudish" period of history. The higher the general moral standards, the more perverse-but also hidden from view-the practices.

What I would worry about is the hygene factors and the rampant (and often fatal) venereal diseases. I think condoms made from intestines were known then, but...

Society became even more prudish after the reformation.

And as always the laws were worse for women. A woman caught in a extramarital relationship would most likely suffer far worse than a man.

Well, you talk about very bad punishments for adultery (which may be true)

But you back it with an example from the KING OF FRANCE'S DAUGHTERS.

That's something I doubt henry will be getting himself into

See the problem, is you think I was telling a story.

I explained what was the stance on sexuality during the medieval era by saying facts. I dont know why you have to make a problem of it or try to distort it into something it isnt trying to do.

There is nothing misleading about those facts and its very good information for anyone wanting to know about sexuality in the medieval ages. There is nothing more to it.
