Status Updates From The History of Underclothes...

I will literally read anything besides Martyr! (!)

Hope we get to the hot dog suit soon

What am I doing with my life (not grading, that's for damned sure)

“Women have long considered men’s underwear as plain prose, but think of their own as poetical.”

“Man’s clothing was profoundly affected but the growing taste for sports, the influence of which was two-fold. For one thing, it materially broke through the barriers of class. The other influence of sport was to spread a taste for more comfortable clothes in daily life, and ‘the top hat and frock coat’ were gradually becoming a specialized uniform for particular occasions.” (1897)

“And prively he caught her by the queynte.”

“‘When going to a dance, the size of my cup-shaped wire structure would depend on who my partner was to be’” (1883)

“Underclothes could also symbolize the discipline of humanity. To appear clad only in underclothes was a voluntary form of self abasement often practiced by pilgrims.”

“Man’s conservative habit has clung to the ancient names of his underwear, while woman has exercised her imagination in devising new ones for hers, with a preference for diminutives - 'undies,' 'cami-bocks, 'cami-knicks,' 'bras,' ‘slips'; it scarcely needs a psychologist to point out that thereby her aim is to give them fresh erotic values, especially as they have become 'fine degrees and beautifully less.'”

well I've fallen asleep like twice so far
