What are those gowns? The corset for posture then this huge padding is just a recipe for back pain.
Thats actually what used to be worn back then even irl
Some reports even say that some women's organs would shift due to wearing corsets for an excessive amount of time
that's some bs, corsets were actually much more comfortable than modern bras because they balanced the weight on the whole torso and not just the shoulders. corsets were literally worn by women working everyday jobs, they were pretty comfortable and actually helped balance the weight of the dresses they wore too.
also, most likely, a dress this big wouldn't have that many petticoats underneath it to keep it poofy, it would most likely be some kinda crinoline structure with a padding from the back. sure it wasn't like super comfortable at all times, but it's similar to discomfort modern women deal with when they put on uncomfortable but beautiful dresses to big events
Okay thats crazy i was a bit out of proportion but corsets back then weren't comfortable
Most women back then wore them tightly depending on the fit and it would cause discomfort, shallow breathing, and back strain.
And actually, Organs did shift, but temporarily
X-rays and preserved medical specimens from the 19th century show that tight corsets could compress the rib cage and push some abdominal organs slightly upward or downward. Ppl who wore it more often had more "long-term" effects but those were kinda rare
But you're right about the working women part!
Working-class women often wore looser ones that allowed movement, while wealthy women aiming for a 16–18 inch waist were more likely to experience health effects. (Which we are talking about here since Courtney is not a working woman but a "wealthy" lady looking for aesthetic rather than functionality)
I was kinda exaggerating in my first comment, organs did shift but not in the extreme ways i made it out to be
The most extreme case was women fainting of overuse (fun fact: fainting couches in Victorian homes were a thing and were also partly a cultural trend)
Reading "Beast must die", the psycho character felt so out of place to me. Doha maybe a sociopath.
Also do semes grow tree in their pants now? Wtf is that compared to the other one?
I was so disturbed by Lewellyn's nails at first since he had such a polished look. Now I feel bad knowing that those are recovering nails from the tortures
I'm sorry, the art is very nice. But the hyper chiseled faces and feet in the middle is making laugh before intrigued
Am I seeing too much or Loren looks like Elvish Presley?
I like how Akamine's default face is poker face while Utsumi's is a carefree smile.
The foreign god being Zeus make more sense than Jesus. Zeus would absolutely do crazy things to get laid with someone that caught his eyes. Chasing Seth up until now and rivalry with Horus matches it.
The only thing that can be off is how he still didn't kidnapped him to his place
Sheesh, they are both so hot blooded considering it's a office.
I have heard from retired people before, how they wanted to beat one of their colleagues or boss.
But on the first day?
RIP Dummy phone. You will be cherished for your sacrifice.
It's very hard to read...literally.
Storywise, it's pretty good. It brushed some real life topics pretty nicely like,
Wishing your sibling still has a nice family life even though you're not liked by their spouse, eventually becoming someone who you hated and many more.
It felt ike a good time but finishing it was a chore
