Imagine having sex with a female in the 18th century.

But…. No HIV…. So…

Breh read up about the syphilis epidemic. I think its why Puritans rose up.

Alot of that Victorian fashion you see in period movies was based on hiding syphilis symptoms

'If everyone stinks, then no one stinks'..

British quote

 

[Doobie Doo]

“My God, she was so ugly that I almost dropped dead… a tuft of hair, half white and half black, the top of her head was bald which allowed you to see several lice taking a stroll… Her eyebrows were full of nits; one eye looked down and the other up. Her tear ducts were full of mucus… her nose was twisted into a peculiar shape, the nostrils were full of snot and one of them was half missing. Her mouth looked like Lorenzo de Medici’s, twisted on one side and drooling since she had no teeth to keep the saliva in her mouth. Her lip was covered with a thin but rather long moustache…”

Middle Ages in Europe

I don't believe this story
There is way too much detail, if she was that nasty he would look away, instead it seems he took the time to study her face and write down comments after each studious look.
That is an immense amount of detail even seeing the direction nits are looking

Machiavelli also wrote comedy, this was maybe just a bit.

I mean the Medici comment makes it seem like at least a roast or exaggeration

Bathhouses was a thing, but the classic medieval period in Europe was something else...like they said fukk that bathing shyt and stayed dirty. Forever

Northern europeans qere barbaric.


Africans taught them so much and were considered better. The Roman's respected Africans...it was the tribes in modern day Germany and Britain that they despised and were dirty.

After awhile you get used to smells, also everyone was stanking so it wasn't nothing crazy

 

[Him]

If everyone was stank, was anyone stank? It was probably a normal smell to them back then

Rome/Greece....that's southern Europe. It's warmer and you'll feel funky without bathing.




Contrast with north Europe. Half the year, it's dark super early. It's cold...everyone dressing heavy. Hard to tell how funky someone is if they have a bunch of wool shyt covering them up. Plus once the influence of Rome waned, Northern Europe went hella backwards. People got more superstitious and less educated.
They probably thought you'd catch something if you bathed too much.

Yep, seems like a lot if people think Europe is the same all over but for centuries southern Europe was dam near more in contact with the rest of the Mediterannean than the rest of Europe tbh

As for the bolded, doctors only started washing their hand in the early 19th century, and the doctor who suggested doing so was ostracized, treated as if he was crazy and died in an asylum smh.

Bathing wasn't a thing in A LOT of places in the world

This kind of shyt is why I think if you even believe in the concept of a master 'race' it is black people WITHOUT QUESTION. Look at what happened to the indigenous people when Europeans touched down. Their diseases wiped them out on an apocalyptic scale. When you look at how Africans have weathered interactions with these people from their attempts at genocide to attempts at killing us with disease its very easy to conclude that we just built different

 

[Sukairain]

That's what happens when Empires crumble

Also Europe is much more than ancient Rome and Greece. They probably both called all the northern and eastern tribes barbarians and savages lmao

Greek/Romans did not belong to the same civilization with Europeans. That's what people don't understand.

But they conquered them and subjugated them for centuries. Much of Europe was heavily Romanized. It's why the Italians, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanians all speak languages derived from the Latin of Rome, because all those countries were brutally subjugated. Since the linguistic influence has stayed so strong down to the present day, I wonder why another important cultural aspect in social bathing didn't
