DO right-Was a seigniorial right by which the feudal Lord ( founder of the feud ) could have intercourse with the wife of one of his servants. There is a certain parallelism between some animals, for example with the dominant apes who have relations with all the females of his herd. A similarity to the Greek legends in which the gods abused human and they surgian demigods also have this archaic custom. This abuse was not necessarily considered humiliating.
