This is so heartbreaking, depressing 🙁
How many more lovers and admirers blood will stain Richard's hands?
It a little late to ask this question but, why did Richard's father raise him as male child when he already had two older male children?
🤔 I guess Richard's secret is best hidden in a man body. Women are more valuable to sexual harassment.

Who would dare say a thing, as Richard is still the King.

It's hard to tell but I think that Shakespeare too an idea from life of french officer...who was truely a woman but posing as a man - Jean-Pierre Antoine Marie Victor de Reynier. Boys were way more valued in middle ages, I don't think it's about protecting girls but because of damn idiotic male ego. The more sons you had the more valued you were. Back then they gave a shit how women felt and if they were safe
