Around 1700 there was a German (?) monk who way called the “Frauenpeitscher” (the man who whipped women). He was known to shrive pentitent ladies by caning them. A long time ago a saw his picture and I found it very very interesting… I do not remember his name nor the place I’ve seen the picture.

Either that or the artist didn’t like nuns much, heh.
Or…ya know…liked them a lot…
Why?
Simply cos old habits die hard….

Why? Nuns were often teachers and in the old days the term “Board of Education” had two meanings. Payback is, like many nuns, a bitch.
