>despite the fact he believed women were too stupid to be educated

That's kind of hilarious, coz I only know who he is due to my P7 teacher (a looooong time ago) always telling us about him like he was some great hero. The only thing I actually remember is that he was hanged. (Edit - and that's apparently not even fucking true. Am I confusing him with someone else???)

Looking at his Wikipedia page I think I can guess why she loved the fella...

> On his return to Scotland, Knox led the [Protestant Reformation](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestant_Reformation) in Scotland, in partnership with the Scottish [Protestant](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestantism) [nobility](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_nobility)

Edit - before looking at the wiki page if "Who was John Knox?" was a pub quiz question I'd have said "the last person to be hanged in Scotland" with confidence. Who the fuck am thinking of, and why am I sure my primary school teacher told me that? Lol
