    Sounds like an aristocratic young woman in the 1800s. A young commoner woman would be made to work hard all day before she is even old enough to be called a “woman”. Then again, aristocratic women don’t do cooking or laundry. Fairly confusing TBH. Maybe a really poor aristocratic family? They probably weren’t all wealthy enough to afford a full set of servants.

      Middle class. The middle class is really odd, especially in this period, wherein ‘thrift’ and ‘hard work’ are valued, but not in the public sphere.

      Maybe as a hobby?

      Slightly off topic, but I love this creator right here https://youtube.com/@bernadettebanner and I hope she felt as much joy as her.

        I can believe cooking as a hobby, but not laundry …

            Thanks so much! It’s been the best thing ovens done. No matter how much we are demonized, trans people just want to live their lives. My alternative was… oblivion. Now, I have a desire to live! 🩷🩷

              💖

              I’m a straight white dude from Europe (that’s not me in the profile, I’m just pretending), so I am probably as shielded from getting demonized as it gets. But I struggle to understand how people are so butthurt about letting everyone be whoever they want to be. What does it matter to them?

              Anyway, I hope you’ll never stop finding joy and happiness 💕

                It’s an “any excuse I can find to be judgemental of others in order to prop up my own insecurities that I’ve buried so deep I don’t even realize they’re what actually motivates me” thing.

                  Probably, but I manage to be insecure and not a giant asshole. At least I hope so. So there has to be more to it than just that.
