    I didn’t know that kingdoms had feet, let alone ones that contained women.

      I almost didn’t share it because of that, but I would’ve felt weirder about editing someone’s tweet.

        It’s awkwardly phrased, but not grammatically incorrect.

            The owner of the feet is “every woman in the kingdom,” ergo “every woman in the kingdom’s feet.”

              No, it should be “the feet of every woman in the kingdom.”

                Yes, that is a better way to phrase it for clarity, but the one shown is also grammatically correct.

                  Ambiguity is never correct unless used for humorous intent.

                    Lots of ambiguous phrases are grammatically correct, especially in English. But it’s advisable to find a better way to phrase it when that happens.

      The “feet” are the areas where the commoners live
