4:09 Hearing a man actually verbalize something, that so many men are just afraid to verbalize is so refreshing. It's true that most men don't know how to behave around women, not even in professional environments. It's also mixed with a general unwillingness to learn how to on their part. I hate that in most environments, men get to choose whether to interact with women. It's how they gatekeep the world from women.
'To Walter' may be an in joke - referring to Walter de Clifford- the father of Rosamond Clifford whom Henry II fell in love (aged about 30)- she was possibly 17 while Eleanor was 42. Eleanor separated from Henry and returned to her birth place of Aquitaine. She and her first daughter Marie wrote the book (Capellanus the priest was only the scribe - he later denounced the book). For the time (1185) the book was a vast improvement on what went on before. Ovid's book was on how men should seduce women. Marie and Eleanor's book put emphasis on the man being faithful 'Thou Shalt keep thyself chased for the sake of her whom thou lovest' and that 'Thou shall not exceed the desire of thy lover' as well as 'being obedience in all things to the commands of ladies' Later Marie would be responsible for the tales of King Author and The Knights of The Round Table
22:07 It seems like desperate young men have always needed a set of twelve rules to become desirable written by some man of words with 0 experience and a casual hate for women. It is like "12 rules for life: medieval edition".

Around 12:45- who knew Kanye West was inspired by medieval literature?

Horrible take by fools
This is a very superficial and stupid exposure of Andreas Capellanus's writings by very superficial and stupid "historians."
