Thanks Soph... :)
Can't take paracetamol because as I had said previously, I seem to get an allergic reaction from it which I find pretty weird tbh.

She's waiting for a couple of years now, and has decided on a three colour thing happening on her head for her next birthday.  :laugh:

That is really offensive.  Many books from this era are perfect examples of what went wrong with us as a society.

I have a book from Eighteen eighty something that describes the proper raising of young, innocent girls (you have to get to them before they are first bleeding for your manhood) into subservient women who will always take NO for an answer and make a home for your children, doing a man's bidding with no questions asked. It has chapters divided into what to expect from them as they mature and how to counter their desires as they become a problem in their free thinking.  The book is all about raising a woman to be simple, mindless arm candy and making sure that she has no voice in what becomes of her future.

Remember, in those days, women did not even have the basic privileges of land ownership or the vote, even in a society designed around an individual's right to vote. Women were considered to be less than "human"  by the constitutional definition of human rights, from a century past.  This amazing book even describes the things you can allow women to eat, so that they maintain a "healthy weight"  and do not become useless from bony structure. You have to feed them large amounts of fat and cream in their daily diets, so they do not become too thin. You have to make sure that they are avoidant of work of any kind so that they can be "perfect soil for your young to grow" since that is the only reason reason for their existence - to bear you, as Barons and Lords,  fine children to uphold the family name. A woman who bears a deficient child can be set aside with no accounting for her future. A woman that is a poor cook or a poor housekeeper can be set aside with no regard whatsoever.

If Tig was here, he would love this, but I find it so disgusting, that I feel a need to shoot all the fathers of those women from that era. Those bastards should be glad that they are already dead as fuck!!





Have I mentioned that I have a daughter of my own (no, that is wrong, she is NOT my own, she is more intelligent and far more aggressive than I ever was - she is her own, I just happened to be fortunate enough to be a father to her, as best as I can be.)  I am pushing her, as hard as I know how, to be as forceful and as self sufficient as she can be.  She will never be arm candy, unless she wants to be.

My Great Grandmother immigrated to Australia in 1912 with her husband and 3 children. Within 6 months my Great Grandfather died, leaving her to work her ass off to buy her own house and raise children aged from 1 to 8 by herself.

Her original land / house is not far from where I live, but I will only ever know the street, not the house, because women were not allowed to have their name registered as the primary contact for the postal address of the house.

That is interesting, where did they immigrate from?

Exactly.

The book (I found in an antique store)  that I was talking about was English, but the conditions were not that different anywhere in the world in those times.

Men had no regard for their daughters in those days and even traded them into slave marriages for their own economic advantage.

It seems that the French and the Italian ways of putting women up upon pedestals has had a more lasting effect, if you look at the advantages women have in this age, especially legally.  I have no problem with this. Equality is long overdue and any semblance of equality will require a great deal more "back tracking "  before we get there.

That's my Dad's Mother's Mother - Brighton England. My Dad's Father's family also came from England and were an early pioneer family here in the 1800's.

Yes, and this is interesting because my Mother's maternal heritage is French. Amazing that my Great Grandmother on that side, during the same era was afforded endless ship journeys back to Melbourne for shopping adventures when they moved to NZ so that her husband could be Mayor in a town there. There is a definite difference in the fate and lifestyle of women in that line of my family.
