as an UM, my folks got a house built in 1904, they meant to rebuild it and we are studied up on the era in was made. i read that girls sent to finishing schools were taught to swim in an odd fashion, without water. they had suspended devices where a leather strap went arround the girl's mid torso, and she learned the motions of swimming while keeping her limbs and torso horizontal. seems like a form of torture to me. rigorous training, leather, suspention. i don't know any great deal on how Victorian lifestyles work, so, is this anywhere in the Vic/BDSM ballpark? just curious-just phoenix
