Unmentionable: The Victorian Lady's Guide to Sex, Marriage, and Manners by Therese Oneill
2.0
I liked the premise, but it felt a lot like confirming stereotypes via advertisements and era-related fiction. I could not tell if this was supposed to be accurate non-fiction written humourously to make it palatable or a straight up comedy book drawn from shallow research pools. I think maybe the author wasn't sure either.
The whole book can be summed up as "LOL everyone was gross and men were dumb LOL".
