QUEEN'S POSTNATAL DEPRESSION Resuming one month after the first series ended with the queen giving

matriarch

responsibilities as both parent

In the 19th century, even the most ostensibly powerful woman in the world had no real choice about birth control, pregnancy or childbirth, whatever her own natural inclinations about motherhood might have been. That's why she and Alberta had so many, many children. Every woman did.
Oops, I put "Alberta" instead of "Albert" -- Freudian slip? Do I secretly want Victoria to be in a lesbian relationship? Or do I just live in that particular province in Canada? Hahahaha!
I can't imagine being pregnant that many times. Her hoo-ha was like a clown car spitting out all them babies. Let's just be thankful that there are many birth control options for us today.
I'm sure they had some kind of birth control in those times too, and even in more ancient history, especially if you were filthy rich like this ebil colonial bitch, but she just wasn't informed or was too prudish or wanted to populate the world with her spawn... one can only guess.

ReplyDeleteyes, that was shown in the first season when she thought jumping up and down on a sofa would stop her from getting pregnant

Deleteas far as history is concerned she was a nympho, she and Albert were insatiable, so who knows what kind of experiments they had in bed :)
