The situation/condition of women in England in ~1800 † 11/01/20 (Sun) 10:16:59 faf9c2 No.848912

Khan [d. 1805/1806], an Indian Muslim traveler of Turkic descent, on the situation/condition of women in England in ~1800:

"…no woman of respectability ever walks out (in London), unless attended by her husband, a relation, or a confidential servant."

"…they never think of sleeping abroad, even at the house of their father or mother, unless the husband is with them."

"The father, mother, and whole family, also consider themselves disgraced by the bad conduct of a daughter or a sister."

"…by the laws of England, a man may beat his wife with a stick which will not endanger the breaking of a limb, or may confine her in a room, the women dare not even give their tongues too much liberty."

In "The Travels of Mirza Abu Taleb Khan":

a bit of historical context too, victorian england was very sharply affected by syphilis and responded as a culture to confine the plague. while the understanding of disease was still relatively primitive from a modern point of view, they did understand that having sex with prostitutes or even just sleeping around in general could cause it to spread. you can see similar parallels now where lots of sexually transmitted infections are returning with the rampant degeneracy of the past two generations. stay safe out there lads.
