My favorite inadvertently creepy photography convention from Victorian times actually is the "hidden mother" photograph. As we know, taking pictures of wiggly babies is hard, especially if their mothers aren't holding them. But for some reason people keep insisting on having baby photos taken with only the babies.

The Victorian solution to this...was to just throw a blanket over the mother and pretend she wasn't there.

whoever said modern clothing is better was LYING. i put on my victorian menswear and i immediately feel amazing. nothing can touch me! i have four layers on and you have no idea what my body looks like! i'm the hottest motherfucker ever! sure t-shirts are cool but have you ever tried a vest that gives you a slutty little waist?
