Why were the love magic spells sold by women like Laura Malipiero and her mother so important to the (mostly) women who purchased them?

a) Having only limited social rights and economic authority in Venetian society, women might readily seek the powers that the Malipieros’ charms promised them. b) Italians, particularly Venetians, had traditionally held that romantic courtships were more likely to lead to healthy children after marriage. Consider This: Did Laura Malipiero ever use love spells herself? See 3.5: Narrative: Spells for Sale. c) The maritime nature of Venice meant that husbands frequently disappeared, making it harder for women with small children to remarry. Love charms were seen as a way to make men overlook the cost of maintaining other people’s children. Consider This: Did Laura Malipiero ever use love spells herself? See 3.5: Narrative: Spells for Sale. d) Young women in Venice loved to purchase magic spells as a way to pass the time until they married. It was a good business for Laura Malipiero and she never believed any of her spells would work. Consider This: Did Laura Malipiero ever use love spells herself? See 3.5: Narrative: Spells for Sale.
