Old-time etiquette.

aiela posted this incredibly nifty link to a series of tests of 19th Century etiquette for men and women. It's a long quiz, but quite funny (and the wrong answers often result in hysterical happenings, like a kangaroo zapping you with laser eyes).

Um, link? I couldn’t find it in her journal.

Oops! Link was f-locked, and since I started that post last night, I forgot to edit and make sure I put the link up. It's there now!

Nifty indeed. Apparently, I am instinctively a perfect victorian gentleman in all manners save fashion. It takes me 2-3 times to pick an appropriate outfit. :) (I will note that this appalling lack of fashion sense haunts me through into modern times, thus a tendency to wear basic black.)

I credit The Alienist.

It's far too tempting to intentionally choose the wrong answers, just to see what happens. ;)

I apparently make a much politer woman than a man. ;)
