I'm still fresh from reading a book on the medieval era that focuses on France and it was forbidden to bathe naked, let alone run a brothel on the side which would have likely been raided by authorities back then. Just a minor gripe.


BG isn't midevil France, for example it's polythiestic and even has public fiend worship. And Faerun has enough sex gods/goddesses to make their own Pantheon.

And I'll be exploring it again later.


No problem brothels were pretty common on the other side of the rhine in the Holy Roman Empire. Though of the standards varied a lot since the HRR had no central government. So claiming prostitution didn't exist in medieval Europe is just wrong.

I did not claim that though. I was referring to bathhouses which had an obvious purpose back then. Anyway, you can PM me if you want to chat about medieval history I don't want to derail this thread.
