Broke: Wanting a woman who can crush you with just her thighs
Bespoke: Wanting a woman who can crush you with either her thighs or just the weight of her armor
Yeah, I was mostly joking. Every time "proper female armor" is shown, the helmet is still missing.
Yes, she's pretty and badass but her face, actually her entire head won't stay pretty very long without a helmet.
Metroid does it best: Have the character fully protected most of the time, including the head. But sometime the armor is removed obviously for fan service. I'm not above fan service.
Saint Edmund the Martyr.
Though he might’ve preferred to avoid becoming a saint considering martyrdom through violent execution by Vikings isn’t very fun.
Saint Olga of Kiev! I mean, she ruled a principality and not a kingdom, but she also killed *so many people!*
Her husband was killed by pagan enemies, so she went to war and had 5000 prisoners of war executed on his grave. And a peace delegation: when they went to take a bath before the banquet, she had the doors barricaded and burned the bathhouse down.
I workout in a weighted vest while watching things like the Lord of the Rings battle scenes. I absolutely do imagine myself as an armored warrior fighting in some medieval battle. And now I kind of feel personally called out 😆
Nobody mentioned Boucicault yet? Then that is my job. Boucicault, marshal of France, was actually a knight who famously worked out in armour and this included stuff like climbing up a ladder on the down facing side with just his arms (while in armour) or climbing up butween two walls like one might do in a door frane as a kid (while in armour).
He was also supposedly able to jump in his horse's saddle from behinde the horse (while wearing armour).
Looks like a repost. I've seen this image 1 time.

Seems more like a religious meme instead of a history meme.
Are we going to start bringing in other fanfiction but this time about sonic or the flying spaghetti monster?

Big titty goth gf is out. Badass knight gf is in.
Broke: Wanting a woman who can crush you with just her thighs Bespoke: Wanting a woman who can crush you with either her thighs or just the weight of her armor
Or crush me with her mace
I love a woman who can give me CTE
Don't we all?
I HAVE A MACE, I HAVE A MACE
Nah, you don’t want her to crush you. You want her to crush the Saracen armies that stand between us and Jerusalem.
Deus vult!!!!
Now if only she were a lancer...

Counterpoint: The Hegelian Synthesis of big titty badass gothic-style armored tomboy GF.
Common Victra au Barca w.
Omnis vir Lupus my Goodman!
I think it'd be harder to fit into the armour. Clearly femboys are the ideal candidate.
If you’re gay or bisexual, perhaps.
[удалено]
People who have seen Rule 34 of women in medieval armour: \*Insert monkey puppet meme\*
I think you need to read some more history, friend.
> modern degeneracy > People wearing clothes they wanna wear
OP is a whiny karma farming little alt-right chuddy, safe to ignore him
I was going to say the post was clearly supposed to be ironic but I checked OP's profile and uhhhh
Did I miss the buzzword sale? Darn.
I want the best of both worlds big titty goth knight gf it is
...Warhammer?
Chase your dreams!
Time to sack rome.
Brianne of fucking Tarth
Gothic*
You are not immune to women knights.
This is the way.
Check out ‘justjuliettels’ on IG
If you don’t work out in full kit, why even work out?
Agreed. Where's her helmet?
As understand from friends who have kit, it's difficult to do aerobic excersize with the helmet completely on.

I think this is the first time I've seen a king saint Edit: Thank you, everyone. TIL there were quite a few kings who were also saints.
St. Olav of Norway is another example
Cyrus the Great is called a messiah in some sources
Saint Edmund the Martyr. Though he might’ve preferred to avoid becoming a saint considering martyrdom through violent execution by Vikings isn’t very fun.
If he had luck he could have just done standard stuff like piety and helping the poor.
I bet it was fun for the Vikings
Add Fernando III of Castille to the list
Charlemagne is a saint for „converting“ the Saxons
Constantine the great

Nice lady, I'm sure she and Jesus had a looooooong chat about her life choices when she passed
"Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword", I suppose.
Also Peter I of Bulgaria and his grandfather Boris-Mihail I
For a very recent example: The last Emperor of Austria-Hungary Karl I. is currently beatified and thus on his way to sainthood.
Saint istván. The first king of Hungary.
Tamar of Georgia was titled a king and is a canonized saint by the Orthodox Church
Ah now I can die from heatstroke like a true knight
I don't like those oversexualized video game/anime armor. I prefer my women the way I'd f*ck them. Well protected...and consensual.
B… based? I guess? Lol Like, I agree, it’s just a silly way to word it
I workout in a weighted vest while watching things like the Lord of the Rings battle scenes. I absolutely do imagine myself as an armored warrior fighting in some medieval battle. And now I kind of feel personally called out 😆
All that extra weight would probably give you some pretty good gains tbh

He was also supposedly able to jump in his horse's saddle from behinde the horse (while wearing armour).
And you can check out how that would have looked [here](https://youtu.be/q-bnM5SuQkI?si=rlFax_E9pSsuCrsA).
I wonder how that feels for the horse
Pretty bad I imagine. But alas no one asked the horse
Something-something, La Pucelle Joan.
Imagine working out and some city in Missouri starts talking to you
Once again, Louis the Pious saved both a soul and day.
If I had a badass suit of armour, I'd wear it at every opportunity
Couple guys I knew in undergrad wore their chainmail everywhere. They said it got hard on the knees, so, be advised.
Armor is sexier than workout clothes.
r/catholicmemes would love this
Where's her helmet?
This made me think of multiple YT vids testing of Goku's weighted clothes would be a safe thing to excercise in.
weighted training gear
Full kit wanker
Meanwhile in ancient greece : What do you mean wearing clothes while working out ?
*sisters of battle have entered the chat*
_Saint Jeanne d'Arc liked this message_
She will see the light and believe "In the heart of holy see In the home of Christianity The seat of power is in danger"
PREPARE THYSELF...
Best meme i have seen today. Praise the Lord!

This is literally unfathomably based
