Favorite time period you would like to live in
Medieval times for me
The Wild West and the American 50’s would be my alternate picks.
I would definitely like to visit different periods in history, but I don't think I would want to live during times where diseases couldn't be controlled - like polio, or before blood types were understood. Life was a crap shoot - much more so than now.
shareMedieval times would be fatal for me then.
shareYah, I wouldn't want to live before modern medicine and dentistry, to say nothing of modern personal and public hygiene.
shareYes - my husband watches westerns and every time I see women working in long skirts and all of those clothes I just wonder what were they thinking? They had to be gross and disgusting - I think how sweaty I can get working in a pair of shorts and a tank top in the summer. Yuck.
shareI can't imagine how miserable soldiers were wearing wool uniforms marching in the heat.
shareWomen had shorter lifespans because of dangerous childbirth, too. And they had many more children some of whom died from disease.
