Repression
The 19th Century is known to have been a repressed time. I can't help but think that today's society is also repressed , but in different ways. Today, I answered the phone, and I had to act all professional when talking. This requires a lot of control, even when the caller is being mean and all, I have to talk in a gentle voice, even when I'm sticking up my middle finger inside. Though, to live in such a repressed era like the Victorian era, I couldn't manage. I would crack one day. Thank goodness they had literature to express themselves with. Imagine, art was considered bad for women, because it made them veer off the right way. Well guess what. I <3 art. I like blogging which is basically the art of writing. I like reading and enjoying good fanfiction and books, as well as listening to shinee. All part of them are part of the arts. I dunno what I would have done. Thank goodness for all these movements. We are somewhat freer, especially in comparison to history.
