DYK 18thC #Venetians wore #CarnivalMasks half the year, not just at carnival? They got to be whoever they wanted to be & to #fuck whomever would join them in a bedded gondola. Women in Venice were Europe’s most free. HowSexGotScrewedUp.com #HistSex #WmnHist

More from my recent trip to #Venice. The costumes for #Carnivale are beautiful and elegant and elaborate. And distinctly Venitian.
