What is the law of curvature?

Answer 1

Curvature is not a law technically, it is an old English law that was introduced in America and became a social practice rather than written law. Curvature was an old way of thinking, about women. Back in the 1780s well off into the 1900s women were thought to take on their husbands identity when they married. The law of Feme and Barron, he was the sole provider of the household. Women were not allowed to own or sell property, or enjoy their own money. All land or property belonging to the wife would transfer to the husband at the time of marriage. She would bare his children, and take care of the household for him. This was a time well before women suffragist movements, or such, so Curvature refers to women who were entirely submissive to their husbands. Women did not have the liberty to contract or apply for any jobs without her husband consent, assuming they will be hired in the first place. So when you speak of Curvature, this is what it means.
