Sanya Mathura was leading a lubrication training out in St Maarten when a man put his hand up and asked about her background and competency to train him. “My background is whatever is behind me,” she joked, but Mathura knew where he was going with this.

“Almost every woman in the story of Jesus is called Mary... More commonly, the Marys have combined and then divided, only to fuse again with other, unnamed women in Jesus’s circle. They seem particularly attracted to Mary Magdalene, to whom they cluster like pins to a dressmaker’s magnet... Mary Magdalene has always represented ‘the sinner we should aspire not to be and the saint we aspire to become’.” Multiplying Marys, by Marina Warner, London Review of Books, Volume 40 Number 4, 22 February 2024.
