@juergen_hubert So, marriage equals punishment, at least for the woman? A truly cheerful outlook on wedded bliss.

@Ardeija

And that's just _one_ of the many dodgy hot takes from German folklore, alongside such classics as:

- "If you use magic to lessen the pain of child birth, your child will become a night hag!"
- "If a more powerful woman wants to sleep with your husband, it's best to act like a complete doormat!"

and

- "It's easy to weasel out of a deal with the Devil with no consequences!"
