Victoria's Day
Back in Queen Victoria's day...sex was
viewed askance...
and never discussed
Not in genteel company
anyway…
as for a gentleman ...why...
The sight of a woman's ankle
could...
take his breath away
And should the lady see.
an artery...
throbbing in his throat...
She would be...most
certainly...
unable to emote.

Didn't some girls finishing school put the table legs in bloomers, Harry...or was it skirts?
And just imagine...all this to preserve their "purity" hugs, Ely

Back in the day of living like robots
It can be hard to believe that there was a time when people were discouraged to display their true feelings
But wait a minute people still do that in public all the time the practice of deception
Queen Victoria may not truly be dead after all with her remnants living in the modern day as her legacy

Modern day Puritans...I see...no more than Victorians in plain clothes...
undercover as it were...
'twas a mite hypocritical, I think...
have you read the writings of the age... forbidden in polite company...
yet rife within society? Ely
