Insane Secrets About Intimacy In 1870's France

Paris's Belle Epoque was a time of elegant architecture, wide boulevards, and inviting cafes. It was also an era rich in French hedonism. Though the cultural center of the world, Paris was also a wild city. Parisians who lived through the golden years of 1871 to 1914 loved to have a good time. In an era of grace and beauty, refinement and respectability, the city was also defined by its sensual decadence, debauchery, and risque practices.

Wonder what the statistics were for syphilis and Gonorrhea in that time period? Such would seem to be the consequences of the life style described. Unbelievable how many women were enticed into this “trade”!

The map of France at start of the video is wrong. It still shows France in possession of the Alsace and Lorraine regions that were lost to the German Empire during the Franco-Prussian War.

Learning to pronounce the French a little better would not hurt.

To improve quality of your presentation, it'd help if you spend a few minutes looking up on the internet how French words are pronounced.

Oui-oui a long way from the days of the Bastille and everybody loved the life of the Moulin-rouge the French were notorious for the flamboyant 🦩

[scrapiron]

I hear their coming out with a new postage stamp, commemorative of the worlds oldest profession. It's a 35 cent stamp. But it's 50 cents if you want to lick it!🤔😐😝

Perhaps the Pronunciation is Apt and "Belly Poke" seems quite relevant.
