St. Joan is my patron, and it is a huge pet peeve of mine when folks claim ridiculous and absurd things about her! Just wanted to say thanks for speaking the truth about this great SAINT!

You’re totally right! A cross-dresser would have hardly convinced anybody on the battlefield. Soldiers need to see a worthy leader, and that was what Jeanne was embodying for them: an ideal leader beyond sex/gender.
It was also for her own protection, as it motivated soldiers to stay pure and consider her like one of their own.

Some people I believe just want attention towards their own writings, therefore they make false commentary. Joan needed to wear soldiers clothing. otherwise she would be killed in an instant wearing female clothing with no protection of armer, a helmet or a sword to protect herself. I mean truly….Peace D.

And “Saint Stories – Joan of Arc (Part 1)” on You tube is very informative. If that video is your creation , you are an awesome presenter . Take care

Want to know about the real Joan of Arc? Then look no further than her own dialog. Nicely done!
