What Sex Was Like in Victorian Era

[@milkymoo8252]

Hold on. Doctors used to masturbate women with vibrators for "hysteria" which covered headaches to nervous breakdowns. The doctors discovered orgasms were a cure for all women from all walks of lives. I'm an actual historian who has covered this era of history quite extensively and can tell you the Victorians were not as prudish as the books let on.

[@williamlebotschy2729]

In the late 19th century , there were over 100000 protitutes in London alone. Certainly not repressed.

[@HISTORY_FACTS_II]

wow 1000000😮

It was a dark time, when the medical profession was inventing new sexual disorders faster than their patients could actually suffer from them.

[@HISTORY_FACTS_II]

yeah it was really a dark time🤝

It was also a very lucrative business.

No, that's today.

[@daniels7907]

@@formwiz7096 - You would be surprised. In those days many so-called "experts" even challenged the idea that heterosexuals enjoying sex within marriage, as opposed to seeing it solely as a procreative duty to be endured, were suffering from "perversion". Granted, you had an unhealthy dose of religion informing many peoples' ideas on the subject. Victorian prudishness was also, in many ways, a reactionary response to the comparatively relaxed attitude towards sex during the earlier Regency, when people were seen as enjoying sex too much.

Let’s face it. They probably didn’t smell the greatest back then either.

I really enjoy your guys videos. Keep up the good work 👍

Thank you! Will do!

[@moonstone4475]

The comment about Romans, Egyptians and Greeks is inaccurate historically, they were more open minded (pre-Christianity) but there were multiple rules/traditions about sex.

[@HISTORY_FACTS_II]

i understand they were open minded, but that doesn't mean the comment the video is inaccurate. otherwise thanks for the comment 🤝

[@moonstone4475]

@@HISTORY_FACTS_II It does because you suggested that everyone was having sex wildly and that is inaccurate.

@@moonstone4475 I think the word “wild sex” should not be taken literally. The vlogger is right. Wild because there were no written rules. Age with minor was common, among others.

[@TheFakeyCakeMaker]

This might be correct but it lacks context. People want to blame the church and religion for all the repression but it was so cake doctors and scientists giving this advice.

[@HISTORY_FACTS_II]

cake doctors????

How many children did Queen Victoria have? In her case it was her duty.

[@HISTORY_FACTS_II]

most historians believe she had 9 children

[@howellwong11]

@@HISTORY_FACTS_II Yes, she was the Grandmother of Europe.

[@jennifercogzell748]

It wasn't her duty. She liked sex but not having children. She didn't like babies much, childbirth was very painful and birth control frowned on or non existent
