In medieval Europe, what kind of obscene torture was used to treat witches?
Like the "naked punishment" in ancient China, the execution of naked women is a good opportunity for many people to "appreciate", play with and insult women, and they can do whatever they want with these poor women to satisfy their animal desires. What is even more ridiculous than China is that in the interrogation record of the execution of the "witch", there are even words like "that woman is beautiful and plump".
Like China's beheading, the stake was a common death penalty in medieval Europe, in addition to some cruel death sentences such as puncture and saw the punishment. In that dark age, women in Europe suffered no less than women in China.
The obscene and indecent exposure of various punishments for hunting witches in Europe
In medieval Germany, there was another way to identify witches or witches, that is, throwing women into the river. First, the defendant woman was dragged to the bridge and stripped naked in full view. Then the criminal bent her knees and tied her hands and feet together for everyone to see. Then put a rose basket on the water, put the woman on her back in the basket, and loosen the rope a little.
At that time, the execution of witches was like a pornographic performance in a circus, and people often came to see it in an empty lane. Some men are more excited because these witches' naked bodies and painful distortions can give them a deformed sensory stimulation. In the square where burning or boiling is punished, or by the bridge thrown into the river, there are many stalls, and many vendors gather together, just like catching a temple fair.
Looking south from the intersection in the center of the ancient city of Freiburg, the antique Martin Gate stands a hundred meters away. On the stocky stone wall, a metal card explained in German was nailed, which read: "1599 On March 24th, Margarita M, Katarina S and Anna W were beheaded and burned, and they became victims of the evil wave of witch persecution.
Frejborg1599 On March 24th, that cold early spring day, on the riverbank not far from Martin Gate at that time, Margaret and other three people accused of being witches will be beheaded here. Under the riverbank, on the other side of the river, people came to watch. They saw the spattered blood under the knife light, and then followed the cart with the bodies to the crematorium 2 kilometers south of the city.
Margaret, Katarina and Anna became victims of religious evil forces in the craziest period of the evil wave of persecuting witches in Europe in the late Middle Ages (1590 ~ 1630). It's immoral to destroy women in this way. It is worth noting that this heinous phenomenon still existed in Europe more than 300 years ago.
Although, on the whole, Europeans respect women more than Africa, Africa and other countries, in a patriarchal society, men will think that women are only their accessories and inferior. So once they need to destroy women, their methods are often outrageous.
