Clearly, if you have a nice ass, you're all the better for getting pregnant. Actually, any ass will do. Don't be confused. The specific type of ass Trotula was writing about, is the donkey kind. It can be found in texts before the 12th century to describe a horse-like animal with long ears and a braying sound, and the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines it thus:
Any of several hardy gregarious (see gregarious sense 1a) African or Asian perissodactyl mammals (genus Equus) smaller than the horse and having long ears especially : an African mammal (E. asinus) that is the ancestor of the donkey
Noun (1) Middle English, from Old English assa, probably from Old Irish asan, from Latin asinus
Please, don't try this at home.
