Corsets are infamous as torturous devices, specially designed to keep women in their place and helpless. But reality is a little more complicated than that, as it always is. This episode discusses:

  • the origin of the corset
  • the evolving function of the corset
  • the 19th century corset
  • how small could a woman go?
  • who enforced this idea anyway?
  • how bad for your health was it?
  • where did the corset go?
