Gay History - March 20, 1749: The Single Women of New York Denounce “Old Bachelors”
A few centuries ago, marriage was more than a than just arrangement for two people who love each other. It was a significant economic proposition. This was especially true for women, whose options for earning a living were severely limited.
You mean it had a definition beyond a “feeling”? Holy shit, next you’ll tell me words have a purpose!
Loving your spouse was a boon, not the foundation of marriage.
Funny. I was assured women had no rights whatsoever back then and they were basically slaves.
