Any sixth grader should know their fabrics weren't dull. I bet she doesn't know that men were the fashion plates of that day with their wigs, lace shirts and padded leggings to make them look sexy.

My point is maybe she didn’t have any interest in the subject before this.
Wow...pretty harsh. Bet you’re fun at parties...
I was watching ‘John Adams’ last night on DVD, and remember seeing Rutledge (sp?) of South Carolina who was wearing quite a vibrant suit of a shade of purple. Part of the entertainment value for me in watching historical movies is seeing the dress and mannerisms of long ago.
I’ve told my oldest that what makes history so interesting is not all the dates and figures, but the people, their actions, and the consequences that carried on to future generations. I had a professor or two in college who imparted those things on me, and it’s something that made history that much more enjoyable for me.
