If you don’t think that Martin Luther was a nitwit, you will in a minute. For he wrote:
Women are created for no other purpose than to serve men and be their helpers. If women grow weary or even die while bearing children, that doesn’t harm anything. Let them bear children to death; they are created for that.
Another of his nitwit-proving declarations:
It is commonly the nature of women to be timid and to be afraid of everything. This is why they busy themselves so much about witchcraft and superstition. One teaches the other, so that it is impossible to tell what kind of hocus-pocus they practice.
(The first quote is from page17, the second from 252, of Women and Gender in Early Modern Europe, 3rd edition, by Merry E. Wiesner-Hanks. Cambridge University Press. 2008.)
