I am reading a great book at the moment called Apology to Women by Ann Brown, giving an overview of the historical view of women within Christianity and offering some new interpretations. This quote by Martin Luther made me laugh, so I thought I'd share it...

"Men have broad shoulders and narrow hips, and accordingly they possess intelligence. Women have narrow shoulders and broad hips. Women ought to stay at home; the way they were created indicates this, for they have broad hips and a wide fundament to sit upon, keep house and bear and raise children."
