@sirdressmaker: People are often so baffled to learn that the Victorians were human beings, just like us… Yes, conservatism was mainstream. But, just like today, not everyone fully conformed. And that’s the beauty of humanity. 💕 #fypシ #fyp #victorianfashion #historical #victorian

People in the past, were literally just us in the past. People have always been people. And that is my absolute favourite lens to view history through.

My personal favorite. The Victorian couple who couldn't stop laughing while getting their picture taken.

Dorian Gray was written firmly in the Victorian era and it's gay af lol. Fashion was specific and conservative (as in had lots of rules and expected them to be followed), but that didn't make historical people any less vibrant, silly, loving or diverse than any other time period. Victorians had a nipple piercing trend

queer humans have been around for thousands of years since the beginning of time idk why that’s not common knowledge but more people need to be educated on the topic

and they wanted to have photos and keepsakes to show they were here. did some of them want to show the future that being nonconforming was OK?🥹

Victorians presented a very conservative social front but it was really paper thin. ankles were scandalous but also nipple piercing was common enough to require medical PSAs 😅

People don't realise that the Victorian period was conservative like modern Japan is conservative

fun fact there were plenty of people who got tattoos in Victorian times you just rarely see any record of it because of the clothing they wore back then and careful placement of the tattoos

You can even tell in the books from that time. A little before Victorian era but both Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice have cross dressing scenes with men. They were playful just like we are now (not saying anyone’s identity is playful, I hope that’s clear).

This one briefly threw me for a loop because I live in Vermont and I love White River Junction. But it makes sense because Vermont has always been a huge proponent of personal freedom! 💙

love this! but Gladys Bentley was not a Victorian. An incredible part of drag king history, but she was born in 1907 💜
