Good luck finding any substantiable facts or useful citations in this article. Here's an article with actual sources: https://digpodcast.org/2018/10/21/witche

  I cannot trust an article (podcast) where people say the following: > Historian Judith Bennett notes that medieval women made about 1d./day while men made 1 ½ or 2d./day when doing similar work, like brewing, as men. 700 years later, women still make just 80 cents on the dollar for doing the same work as men. The statement "80 cts on the dollar for the same work" is a falsehood. Simple as that. If people cannot get these simple facts right, I will not trust the rest they are saying.

  Much better article. It does have this point: > That said, I haven’t found any evidence to suggest that brewsters were more likely to be accused of or killed for witchcraft than other women. Bennett certainly doesn’t make that claim.
