“It is natural for man to act & for woman to be passive; & if the man is beneath, he becomes submissive by the very fact of his position, & the woman being above is active, & who cannot see how much nature herself abhors this mutation?”

DYK child #brothels proliferated in 1830s London? Kids were 10–15; #johns were heavy into #flagellation & #virgins. Children also freelanced. Up to 500 girls 12–15 cruised between Piccadilly Circus & Waterloo Place. Ghosts of #SexHist still haunt. HowSexGotScrewedUp.com

Just found #18thc Sally Salisbury's burial record from St. Andrew, Holborn. She was buried on Feb 14, 1724, 3 days after her death (if other accounts are correct). 🗃️📚 I wish London Metropolitan Archives were not behind Ancestry.com paywall, but gonna just download as much as I can now #sexhist

The joys of having my students present work they've found on their own by scholars like @kathylubey.bsky.social, Nancy Fraser, Norbert Schurer, Yoojung Choi, and Laura Rosenthal to our whole #18thc sex, work, and literature class: simply endless.

Teaching can be just the best. #sexhist

#18thc topics class #shelfie! Not pictured are our readings from 1990s to today, but they're on the syllabus.

Having such a good time teaching #sexwork #sexhist as way into 1700s print culture; my students are 🔥 so far. Thanks @broadviewpress.bsky.social for the great editions!
