What Beauty was like in Genghis Khan's Era

With a ruler known for kicking ass and taking names, the Mongol empire is considered one of the most savage yet effective military expansions in the history of humankind. Maybe that’s why beauty and grace aren’t the first words that jump to mind for this bath-loathing “empire on hooves.” But surprise! Their beauty standards were actually pretty woke. Today on Nutty History, we’re exploring the radically different idea of beauty in the Mongol Empire. Saddle up for Genghis Khan’s glow up!

Are you going to quit washing your clothes to keep from angering the Dragon god?

[undertoe]

Those "rosey" cheeks you speak of were a product of painful WIND BURN!

I do want to point out that the "headpiece" they're speaking of is done with the women's actual hair (the black part), and it's only done that way when the woman is married. It's not necessarily a symbol of wealth, but more of marital status. Of course, the more elaborate it is, the wealthier the household, but the basic style is for married women.

The narrator sounds like she's on the verge of tears when she finishes a few of her sentences throughout the video.

Mongolian throat singing is the Bomb 💣

[patthomas]

Could go without the gimmicks in the videos. And the AAVE. It's cringe and takes away from the content of the video.

[aceventura]

Imagine thinking that women from Genghis Khan's era had it better than today's women. Wokeness makes some people such idiots.

What gas station has this chick been to that you can buy contacts at???

[elizabethnilsson]

EXCUSE ME .... THE MONGOLS DID NOT TORTURE THEIR CHILD.... They give here child a great freedom for to learn to ride horse and learn them how to survive

I'd love to see a description of the beauty practices of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

[bloodofourbloodspiritofour]

I usually love Nutty history but this episode is just "woke" history. Most of it is false. I was hoping this channel wasnt going to go in that direction

[hunterh]

Tengrist.: screw bath I’m using body spray!

[hanoh]

I just can't get past the no washing rule! The smell!!!

[DeMarrJames]

@5:33 As a dude with very long hair.. He definitely sat in a braiding circle.

[zaneivy]

"...the Persian historian Rashid-al-Din wrote at the start of the 14th century that Genghis Khan was 'tall, long-bearded, red-haired, and bluish green-eyed.'”

[garychynne]

there is a similarity in style between mongol and some american tribes clothes. ya'd have to be blind not to see it.
