So, the corset thing isn't actually true. I'm a Victorian period enthusiast as well. Corsets were made for all different body types and were and still are safe to wear if made properly and made for your measurements. Lacing a corset too tight wasn't common either. The reason people think they were unsafe is actually because of men. Victorian men were upset that the fashion industry was primarily run by women, and women weren't allowed to have that much freedom in their books. Corsets were a big thing, so men made fake studies about corsets being harmful.

[@duckincosplay]

Let me know if I got anything wrong!

[@CourtneyMaria2]

If you were a woman with a bigger bust you probably were stuck wearing them for practical reasons and not just for fashion. Plus corset’s were used to take all the weight of their clothes off of their body, because of how many layers women would wear. Also fun fact; in France men would also wear corset’s to.

[@legendarybubbles4567]

This! Exactly!

[@alisebrown3910]

I’m not sure about the men making stuff up part (not saying it’s not true I just haven’t seen that) but I agree. Corsets are not at all how media portrays it. Just like everything back then it was measured and made to size and having ribs broken etc was rare and you still breathe wearing them lol

[@OldSchoolLPsGames]

Also a lot of the pictures we have of women with insanely small waists were doctored. Photoshop before photoshop - literally drawing on either the photo or the negative. Of course there were a few women who did tight lace and cause themselves harm, but that's kind of the equivalent of that weird cat lady or the guy who used plastic surgery to make himself look like a Ken doll.

[@SevenEllen]

I'd happily watch a Let's Play of this Victorian family. It'd be perfect for Halloween! Why not have someone be a gravedigger or do a séance? Something to do with ghosts, perhaps, as they're so obsessed with the dead.

[@cb034]

By the way, the dress-wearing was usually due to the ease of wearing for children. It's a lot easier to clean up a child who makes a mess/needs a diaper change if they were wearing a dress than having to deal with all the clasps or ties for the pants

[@ElizabethJones-pv3sj]

Just came here to say this. The only reason that it's easy to put baby boys in trousers today is because of elastic, snaps and zippers. Before that nobody was undoing a dozen buttons every time you wanted to change a dirty nappy. Plus babies and children are grubby so you dress them in simply made white cotton dresses that can be boiled clean, bleached white again and dried quickly.

[@kissarococo2459]

Confirmed. My great-grandma was born in 1870s and lived onto 1960s. My mom had just had my eldest brother and she remembered how amazed great-grandma was of children's stockings and modern diapers of the time. She said her kids only had "little shirts" as the dresses were called because clean up was easier.

[@allifairm]

So you mean all this fuss about boys wearing dresses is all bs?!They’ve been wearing dresses for ages??! (Sarcasm)

[@onidaaitsubasa4177]

Fun fact, if you're playing an old era family or an Amish like family, give them the technophobe trait with cheats, they will never pull out their phones and try to play games on them, it really changes the gameplay, they will either read, or play musical instruments, for fun, instead of playing on their phones or watching the TV

Actually something you might think is interesting is that the victorian beauty standard was what women looked like when they had tuberculosis, they thought that the way tuberculosis made people look was extremely attractive so they used makeup to try and look like they had it!

I think this was fun. I love learning about history and the sims is a really nice visual to have going on while your talking about it.

[@danaroth598]

Wealthy families did indeed put their little boys in dresses while they were toddlers. It was partially to save on buying or making loads of baby clothes, but also it's a lot easier to wrestle a toddler into a loose dress than pants, especially in an era before velcro or snaps.

[@thevirtualtraveler]

ALL families dressed their infants and toddlers in dresses, male and female. Not just wealthy families.

For some reason this wants me to recreate the handmaids tale in the sims. 😂

I used to watch hidden killers of the victorian home all the time, so this is right up my alley! I find this period in time fascinating. I think there were lots of different episodes of different time periods, they were all really interesting.

[@Truffles_bombs]

Oh yer there was one more job That was a Dog Poop collector. Leather became very popular in the late 1800s, and in order to soften leather pieces, dog poop was used as a softener of sorts.

I love this! For a good Victorian and Edwardian era culture fix, I recommend the KZbin channels of various fashion historians. I'm partial to Bernadette Banner and Karolina Żebroska, but there are a good number of educational entertainment channels that focus on historical day to day life culture of varying periods.

[@sophiajames9655]

[@queenjayneapproximately]

Victorian boys did wear "dresses" until about the age of 3 or 4 and then they would switch to short pants. Not wanting to get close to their children wasn't really a factor, the gown was because it was easier to change their nappy. Victorians loved their children as much as we do today. There are lots of accounts people falling into deep "melancholia" after the death of a baby or toddler.

[@elenap1529]

I really enjoyed this “actual” educational video 😝 I would definitely be interested in watching more of these types of videos!

[@candicoated2001]

I'm actually currently taking a college course on Victorian Britain this semester. Pretty coincidental timing.

[@mollymollie6048]

I loved it! (History nerd, here!) I knew about the arsenic in the green wallpaper, it made its way to the states, also. In fact, we didn’t stop painting walls, or using gasoline with lead in it until the 70/80…1970s/1980s! Also had to laugh about “back in Victorian times, EVERYONE was obsessed with women’s weight.” And this has changed….not at all! At least you can find bras for bigger than a B cup that will hold the girls up with no underwire and pantyhose is no longer a general requirement. The menace of high heels with pointy toes will probably be with us forever, tho. Thanks for the great video!!!

[@shaunnarichards2716]

I really liked this video because I'm also really interested in the Victorian time period for some of the same reasons you are. It was such a strange bleak and morbid time and that's what makes it so compelling to me to find out more about it. I didn't know some of the stuff you mentioned. I'd love if you did more videos like this one.

I love some good history facts. Thoroughly enjoyed this!

[@strick405]

Karla's proclivity for the morbid is not far off. Fun video♥ I especially like the green wallpaper, well I do like green wallpaper, but that green from the arsenic was truly a beautiful poison and Victoria should be ashamed for not banning its production as soon as she learned. As a girl (since, well, my voice never changed) of the 21st century, I celebrate the freedoms from such things as corsets, and the ability to attain to landownership. Thanks. I'll count my blessings today.

[@ParniaSh]

What a brilliant idea! We need a series

[@kristin3903]

I have a Victorian-era locket with a picture of a little Victorian girl inside. I’ve always wondered who she was and what her life was like, but it’s also kind of creepy. Really liked this video!

[@VoxyPop518]

The toxic green wallpaper was the first thing I clocked. This is really well done!

[@futurelllllla]

I loved this video! Two of my passions are history and The Sims, so I'd love as many videos like these as you'll make

[@sircharlesmormont9300]

I'd love to see a Let's Play with this family! The little ones could grow up into Edwardians who would scratch their gray heads at their flapper daughters and jazz-obsessed sons. The march of time, with each generation, would be really fun. You could even use the séance kit, since that was all the rage back then. You do have to ignore some of the built-in anachronisms that come with TS4, but I actually think you could do a pretty nice decades (or maybe "eras") challenge with Henford-on-Bagley. Eco Living, Island Living, and Cottage Living all gave us some pretty good ways to have sims exist without modern electronics or plumbing. They can catch, grow, can, and prep their own food pretty readily. They can knit some of their own clothes. There are knight costumes. Honestly, I think you can do a march forward through time pretty convincingly. I'm not really sure how far back you could go. I feel like hunter-gatherers are probably out, and maybe there aren't enough togas and tunics for Roman-era England, but you could probably start in the late Medieval or Renaissance period. You could definitely make the early modern period work.

[@alexdeane7641]

I would watch the HELL out of historic sims content! This video was amazing ❤️

[@BrokenDollyTV]

I hate history lessons but I love this one

[@ganapatikamesh]

Love this video! And I like that you mentioned that plumbing and electricity were a thing by the specific time you mention. My hometown was founded in 1893, the last decade of the Victorian period. At a local museum there is a preserved Victorian house that was originally owned by very wealthy town founders. It includes a bathroom. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard people try to claim that wasn’t original to the house. But it is. The reason we have the house is because the family built themselves a bigger one at the start of the 20th century. They didn’t put electricity because there wasn’t any of that in the rural areas in this part of the US a bit later (and that newer house did eventually get upgraded with electricity). I also like that you mentioned purple being popular at this time. It’s accurate because a way had been found to make it that reduced the cost and luxury of purple dye. My dad just earlier this year was restoring an old Victorian home in a nearby small town that had been empty for ages and whose second floor was sealed off (the stairs were like in a room, you open a door to get to them and that door had been boarded up so whom😢had owned it until it was abandoned and left to fall apart had just been using the downstairs. The downstairs was modernized with telephone cord outlets, cable tv cord outlets, etc. Upstairs wasn’t touched other than that it had outdated electrical outlets. One bedroom had a purple wallpaper it with sailing ships patterns on it. It was mostly faded due to sunlight from a big window and in some parts rain water from where the roof had collapsed. Him fixing the house in order to resell it made me curious to learn more about the time period the original house was built and I guess it was pretty standard for an 1890s middle class Victorian house in the area. So I enjoyed hearing those things get mentioned when discussing facts. Not gonna lie as much as I enjoy watching people do the decades challenge, there are times when I wish people did more studying of the time periods as they plan. Many times there’s historical inaccuracies based on modern perceptions of those previous decades. And a lot of what we think about those previous decades is mostly expressions of wealthy and middle class folks...which people seem to glamorize. I haven’t seen anyone play the decades challenge as working class or lower classes. Especially for the lower classes, a lot didn’t really change for them as quickly as the other classes. Also I have noticed that almost everyone plays it using some of the US’s history with a specifically Southern bent to it. Segregation wasn’t a thing in all states, nor was miscegenation laws. Likewise same-sex marriage came about at different times in different states, too. And they start in the 1890s but skip right over the Spanish-American War. Which sure it wasn’t a long war, it is considered a pivotal war in moving the US into a superpower. It was also a pretty important war to folks living in Puerto Rico, Cuba, Guam, and The Philippines who found themselves as US territories after the war (two still are). I mean one of the major streets in my hometown’s downtown is Maine Street named after the USS Maine which is the incident in Havana Bay that set off the US declaring war on Spain! It’d be interesting to see someone do the decades channel from another nation’s perspective. 1890 to modern day 2022 hasn’t played out the same way for people in the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Russia, India, Japan, China, South Africa, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, etc, etc, etc, etc. Anyways loved this video! I didn’t know about the dead baby photos and some other fun facts you provided. I do know in the US that in lower class, working class, and some middle class families dressing boys and girls in dresses until a certain age was common even up into the 1930s (I have family photos from that time of grandparents, great aunts/uncles, etc). I do know that in the early 20th century that’s where the blue and pink come into play for boy or girl, except that it was reversed from our time. Pink was for boys and blue was for girls. If I remember this changes in the 1940s or 1950s in the US mostly due to department stores advertising the colors the opposite way than what had been traditionally thought of prior (much like a lot of traditions in the US which shifted in the 1940s and 1950s and beyond as consumer culture became more dominant and mass media beyond newspapers became more common). If you want to make more videos like this I’m happy to watch them about whatever time period! It was fun to watch and learn! I’ve been busy this week with all kinds of things so getting to your videos later than usual (I swear I think every company, organization, etc in my city decided that the first week in October was just too dull in past years because this year it’s been full which means more people in the city...people who dine out so busy at my job. I’d say I’m looking forward to next week, but apparently there’s an Oktoberfest planned for next weekend at a shopping center right across the street from my job).

Another issue with the baby bottles is that they would add an alkaline to get rid of the acidic bacteria building, milk curdling taste of the expired milk, thinking it "fixed" the milk, making it last longer. Instead, they got lots and lots of botulism.

[@littlebear274]

I loved this video! It was really interesting and creative, I knew a lot of it already but the way it was presented was great. One note about the baby bottles and the rubber tubing - this is actually why plastic straws were SO revolutionary, not necessarily for babies but for seriously disabled people who couldn't handle eating solid food. So many of them died for the same reason that babies did from the bacteria in the rubber tubes. Plastic straws are honestly still the best option for a lot of people as the alternatives include things that degrade too easily, splinter, aren't flexible, etc.

Love the victorian family! I do want to give a shout out to some historical costumers who specialize in corsets and it's history.The percent who tight laces is on the same scale as people with EDs. Most corsets were padded to give the dramatic shapes and were (and are) really comfortable. Bernnadet Banner has a good video on the subject.

[@sonianevermindultimateprin659]

Just to clarify corsets were not oppressive in any way, and should not be painful (Before I continue I just quickly want to say I mean no hate whatsoever this is just me correcting you on a common misconception which is often re-enforced by the media and I love video and especially the character designs though it did sort of bug me that the lady looked Edwardian I have tried making historically accurate sims using cc and it is impossible but yours look amazing) Their purpose was not to make you appear slimmer as modern corsets are, rather to provide support similarly to bras and to be honest I want a corset as they look far more comfortable The only things that should cause your corset to be painful is it it does but fit you (please do not buy cheap corsets unless it's for only fashion it needs to be fitted to you properly) you are wearing it on your bare skin(it will chafe and be extremely uncomfortable I imagine kind of like walking in wet boots without any socks or tights), or if you tight laced it ,tight lacing shouldn't even hurt that much from what people have said it's just a bit stiffer, tight lacing was done for fashion to help achieve the fashionable shape (fashion was more shape based then weight and this was largely achieved using padding and similar) They most definitely did not shift your organs or damage your body(the only thing they could maybe do is cause your core muscle to deteriorate as it supported you and held your posture) The majority of the papers saying this were A: written by men who did not normally wear the corsets, and B: written by doctors of the time, who as we accept as fact for every thing other than corsets had zero idea what they were doing(I mean they literally thought the uterus was suspended on strings ) Women also could move in corsets! There is photographic evidence of women climbing, riding bikes, etc and I think there were even sports corsets (though I am not sure if that is a Victorian thing) So, in short corsets were not at all a bad thing and to anyone interested I recommend checking it Bernadette banner and Karolina zebrowska, as well as Abby Cox, Morgan Donner, and a whole load more people(the Catherine de medichi time travel society!) and if you want more just corset specific information I recommend looking at Lucy's corsetry

I love the concept of this video! Two things I noticed: - A family with that kind of wealth would probably have live in servants. The mother would certainly not make dinner herself. A cook, a maid and a nanny were like the minimum requirements to run a family home. Think about how much work the washing (by hand) for a family of five alone would be. - A wealthy man in that position would certainly not work as a woodworker. That kind of wealth points to either generational wealth or good investments. At that time, investors were making lots of money from anything to do with the colonies like ships and overseas trade.

This was very fun. I would love to see some historically set dramas. Hell, OnlySims would have been a huge hit with the victorians if they'd had access, so there would be a rich amount of storytelling/gameplay that would work well, hell the high mortality rate would make for interesting gameplay for some of the darker mods....
