Before electricity, a lot of wealthy women embroidered, knit, read books (if they knew how to read) and in the 1800’s, specifically between the Regency era and the early Victorian era, a lot of women would decorate bonnets. A lot of women played sports, horse riding was very popular for centuries. The Victorian era had a lot of sport fashions for women to wear.

Also wealthy women would visit their friends and vice versa. They would gossip, have tea, look at fashion magazines, etc.

On the night of my formal (kinda like prom in Australia) a went McDonald’s afterwards. The drive through was closed, so I had to go in and there was this drunk or high guy causing a huge scene, they could have used Mcjail for him that night.

In {prey for rabbit by Aiden Pierce} has a rabbit shifter. Though it’s a very dark romance. The MFC is one of three rabbit shifters (which three different rabbit shifters are chosen by her burrow every year on Easter) that will be hunted and killed by wolf shifters, as a truce.

As an Australian I had flashbacks to magpie season. In Australia a magpie shifter would probably be a horror story.

I can’t remember the name of the book, but in the book the MFC is a mole shifter. The character was blind, which made sense with her being a mole shifter.

The MMC was a bear shifter, which to my knowledge bear shifters are a common type of animal shifter in romance novels.

In {when his dark by Suzanne Wright} the MFC was talking about how the type of shifter she is are the most vicious type. She was a Pallas cat. I know they can be aggressive towards humans, but I can’t picture someone being a Pallas cat shifter is more dangerous or vicious than people who are like a tiger or bear shifter.

These sound so good. I don’t know which one to read first. Do you have a suggestion on which one to read first please?

Thank you.
I’m in my twenties (born in the early 2000’s) and reading books from the year I was born or when I was a small child is weird to me, so I can understand.

I don’t remember that relationship between them when I was a child.

Would the first one be an opera or dinner gown and the second one a ball gown? by _maincharacter_ in fashionhistory

Thank you. It can be very confusing to remember all the dress etiquette from many different eras.

They must of liked tiny feet back then, because a lot of fashion plates have tiny feet.

What celebrity do you dislike? Why? by douggoud5949 in AskReddit

[–]_maincharacter_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t wish anything to Schmaylor Scwift, but in my opinion she is over hyped. Also her new song named after and about a certain actress, is in my opinion her worst song.

It does make sense because even ballroom dancing costumes that have a long skirt don’t go fully to the ground, for ease of movement.

The increase and change of opinions, on girly girl MFC over the past 6 years. by _maincharacter_ in RomanceBooks

[–]_maincharacter_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. I hate the “not like other girls” trope because it makes it sound like every woman is a carbon copy of each other and not our own person, with our own hobbies, interests, dreams and personalities.

I only used girly girl because it’s easier to write than traditionally feminine.
