Weird History
The Victorian era saw the advent of numerous political reforms, social changes and the world’s first industrial revolution.
However, the Victorians had some other, stranger customs whose common observance died out long ago. These weird bits of etiquette range from the mostly harmless to the straight-up appalling and they paint a pretty clear picture about how far the Victorians were willing to go in the name of what they considered decorum.

I'd always thought fainting was brought on by people (women in this case) being malnourished, weak & dehydrated most of the time… Tapeworms would help too… One hears something that makes their stomachs drop thus, wham to the ground with nothing to up chuck…
Corniness for the horniness 🤣😭
Who wants to bet that the guy that in corn flakes never got any 🤣🤣🤣🤣
⚫ This is the far more factually informative choice for those who want honest details. It is a Truly tragic fact most generally available information. Was totally influenced by the crooked monsters who held back. The advancement of every honest fact. Because disagreeing with the subhumans of the rapist, torturing, robbing, and murderous churches. No matter how perfectly and scientifically accurate. People were executed for the unvarnished Truth. That proved not one single word that issued from the church was even remotely accurate. Much less physically safe to follow.⚫
Lard on the skin still works lol
Not going to lie the tapeworm sounds better than a lot of fad diets out there.
They were discusting
I was raised by my grandparents from the age of 13 and 18. My grandpa would always ask me if I swallowed a tape worm because I really didn't eat much LOL! Well, now that I'm older… I get the joke. Yikes. No thanks.
My "step" brother?
I live in an apartment in a Victorian house from 1895 in Nola, I feel like this video just pissed off my ghosts.
The little censorship bars on the nursing children were definitely not necessary 😂
Silverettes are still used by many nursing mother today. They are made from silver and help protect and sooth sore nipples.
Crazy—ppl still put animal fat all over themselves……I never knew that until I actually read the ingredients. Just ask if you’re facial product is vegan.
They still make nipple shields. They are silicone though. They were not really for modesty they were for comfort. Also, it’s beauty regimens. Beauty regiments is a good looking group of soldiers. 😊
I wish I could experience the Victorian Era and live eternally through it unscathed too. So cool.
Perhaps it is only in some parts of the UK, but there are some who will put a loved ones hair and ashes into jewellery to wear. Perhaps to keep them close. I know members of my own family who had the hair and ashes put into resin jewellery to wear. I thought it was odd and apparently a throw back from the Victorian era. I know people in the North of England who keep locks of their partners hair as keepsakes in a box. Perhaps it’s to remember the colour and curl of their loved loves once beautiful hair before age, who knows the reason.
I wonder how mortified they'd be of
twerking.
Pfff… victorian products. Try some radioactive toothpaste or condoms in the 1920s.
Lol what a bunch of Prudes they were in those days, no sex please we're British lol
Shit , will have change to frosties now . . . 😉 . . . Lmao . . Joking guys . . .
Saw an idiot on a tv show who actually tried the tapeworm trick and report his progress but had so much trouble getting rid of it he tried prunes and extra greens, let’s face it there’s only so much kale or prunes you can eat before they find their way out eventually.😝😝😝😝
