What foul, fie! [re: Ioann & Helene's engagement]

(1/3) > >>

LarissaAnn:
I was just curious why was Tatiana so amused by Ioann and Helene's engagement?  

Janet_W.:
Well, she was a teenager! And anything having to do with marriage/sex would incite giggles from a teenager, even one as comparatively dutiful and mature as Tatiana. In addition, Iaonn was considered to be something of a figure of fun.

LarissaAnn:
ooh okay thanks Janet, I was just looking through one of my books today and I came across that quote and was curious.  Makes sense now.  

clockworkgirl21:
What was so special about the engagment? I'm a teenager, and I admit, I'll giggle at anything related to sex, but not marriage. What's so funny about marriage? (Yes, I know nothing is really that funny about sex either, but that's for another time..)

Romanov_fan:
That was a different era and they had different attitudes, and of course it depends on personality too, in these matters. ;)
