Opebo, you could have an official mistress. It's better than prostitution.

I'm not so sure about that.

Anyway I think the distinction Gustaf is making above is more a matter of pretense on the part of the participants than any real difference.

I guess I'd be one of the poor yet pro-Catholic people. Which side were they on again? When my class covered the French Revolution last year we didn't touch on all these different factions, though I remember reading the word "Jacobin" in a book on John Adams.

You'd probably be a counterrevolutionary rebel or at least a sympathizer with them.  See the Vendée Counterrevolution for the most prominent example of them.

Given that poor clericals were constrained, regimented, indoctrinated and cultured to follow the orders and wishes of their noble or clerical overlords, I think you can guess by yourself.

I like to think that I'd be an ally of Lafayette, except favoring a unicameral Assembly.
