Henry I must have been fun at parties. How could you not create spawn without lust? I don't know what the medieval viagra was, and don't say ground mummy.
Interestingly, neither Henry I or Charles II hold the record for siring the most children amongst all British monarchs. I believe that title falls to Charles' brother James II, who had at least 27. Unlike Henry and Charles, most of James' children were legitimate: 20 with his two wives and "only" 7 confirmed with mistresses.
It's like the classicists who say Greece never would have mattered to anyone if Zeus hadn't dipped his wick into literally everything. Happy Fathers Day!
Cornwall may not be too far but unfortunately I’ve got my own ‘issues’ to tend with over the week. Might be an excuse for a weekend excursion if I can! Enjoy man!
C'mon man, 24? Don't you get to like a dozen and think, "I'll just go home early tonight" I guess if you are dedicated to your ISSUE, you just plod on, so to speak.
But, was he any GOOD in bed? What do the sources say? 😉

Hope to see you and say hi. I'm there from tuesday to Sunday
"... he succumbed to female blandishments not for sexual gratification but for the sake of issue"... that's heart-warming, isn't it 😁
The drawing is beautiful, I hadn't realised Matthew Paris drew it himself.
As a male, one can just sow seeds and move on. He wasn't expected to actually raise them kids 😉😁
Have so much fun! Can't say I'm not jealous!!! Waiting for some amazing stories.
Happy Fathers Day! Enjoyed the post.
