I always wondered, can he still call on crusades? That would be cool.

He wasn't the female Pope. Gallo is many things but a sex-changer isn't one of them. No, the woman was some chippy he picked up in Naples. This was in the 850s and, well, things were rather lax at the time. There was a two-month gap between Leo IV and Benedict III and, well, you know Gallo, he sneaked her into the Lateran, dressed her up in some robes. She was a skinny little thing, as I recall, so with some too-big clothes ...
