I find that hard to reconcile with how 18th century dresses had boobs practically hanging out of them. Maybe the chest wasn’t as sexualized as the ankles were back then…
I have a dim memory from back in high school… I think someone once told me that breasts were no big deal back in corsetry-and-necklines-down-to-there days, they were considered a food source for children and that’s it.
But ANKLES. Oh, GOD. ANKLES. The ANKLE was connected to the LEG, which connected to THIGHS, which hid a woman’s SECRET FLOWER. The ankle was the gateway to the secret flower, so it was considered quite a stirring sight!
I have never considered that “leg bone connected to the ankle bone” song as a sexy tune before but
What with the Mercutio/Romeo kiss from the other day I feel like I should have a tag specifically for “men kissing in Shakespeare plays even though it’s not in the text, but after 400 years of unresolved sexual tension it’s time.”
Fic authors, ever wanted to hold your story in your hand like a published book? Well, I did some digging and I found a way to! The company just prints a single book, no editing, no marketing, no putting it on any official published book lists, so there’s no copyright issues here. It’s not publishing. It’s just printing like an actual book. Pretty cheap too, as far as I was able to see! So yeah! Go hold your fic in your hand as an actual book! I plan on doing it!
Nice!
I HAVE WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS IM GONNA PRINT SO MANY FAN FICS FOR MYSELF
O_O
Oh.
Oh no.
I was LITERALLY just coming to Tumblr to make a post and show my newly bound published fic-book! I used Lulu.com – it was less than $7!!
