“No one expects a woman busy at her sewing to pay attention to what’s being said around her. Never mind if a man’s mother and sisters showed them they heard everything while they stitched, he’ll still think a woman who plies her needle saves all her brains for the work. You’re a far better spy hemming sheets than if you clank with daggers.”
