We always hear about "women were slaves"... Rarely do people actually say "both men and women were slaves" What was it called oh yes... Feudal Serfdom.

Where all the layman of the country were indentured slaves to whom ever they worked for and no one was paid.

Let's not keep bitching about how "women were the only slaves" - reality is they weren't the only ones.

If you're born into a family of decency/significant standing at that time be you man or women you weren't a slave.
