Re: No Pity for the Wives readthrough (cont) - post Seven Years' War

Wilhelmine Enke: Wiki doesn't agree with each other. German wiki names 1752 as her year of birth.

*facepalm*

One day, I will learn to countercheck German wiki! (Probably around the time I can read it without help, which we're getting closer to, woohoo.)

Now, given all the other mistresses FW2 had were older, and given the relationship with her lasted a life time, I don't think he was into pubescent girls per se, but it makes it doubly infuriating that the Prussian media - and certainly Sophie von Voss - painted her as the evil seductress.

Always blame the woman! I like Ziebura calling out "pious Louise" for not having a word to say about the 'sins' of her son, when Louise is going on about Elisabeth and how properly repentant she is.

Argh.
