I do really wish that they had stayed somewhat close to the book's timeline as Penelope was much older and many of her decisions in the book were based on her situation of being much older and having an unrequited love for Colin. Some following character motivations were also partially inspired by Benedict's love story, so it's a bit sad to miss some of these things.

1:40 Actually no, in the story’s Regency setting Penelope’s proclamation is not ridiculous at all - aristocratic girls back then started looking for a husband and got married at 17-18 years old, so a girl who was still unmarried at 22-23y.o. (meaning 5-6 years after her debut into society) was absolutely and very much considered a spinster and out of the (marriage) game….Penelope’s statement is really quite spot on. Most importantly her statement is absolutely 1000% historically accurate; check any *_*non-fiction*_* history book (and no, Jane Austen's novels are not history books....they're romantic fiction, which means they’re not accurate despite having been written in the same era) and you'll see for yourselves -- why historians and history professors see most of today's historical romance novels as nothing but drivel. **In the regency (and victorian) age girls did get married before reaching **_20_** years old, at 21-22 they were already viewed as in “decline” and were unanimously considered spinsters by 23-24y.o. onwards. Debutantes were very much expected to find a suitor and get married within their first or second season, as the longer it took to find a match the lesser chances they had to actually find not just a **_worthy_** one (the primary and final goal) but one at all since every new season brought in a crowd of new younger and fresher girls.** If you think it sounds like a market, it’s because it was. The label “the marriage market” is not something invented by romance writers.

@GomushinGirl 10 күн бұрын

Friend, I suggest you need to read the Marriage Act of 1753. Again, most existing research (please, for the love of God, Google it) firmly shows that women in the era typically married between the ages of 22-27. That's in their mid-twenties, not their teens. People did not actually really want teenagers marrying for most of the same reasons they don't want them marrying today.

@s6r231 9 күн бұрын

That's more Victorian than Regency. The age at which a girl was out in society (and if part of a certain class, partaking in the social season) varied between families. Some are out at 15 (like Lydia in P&P) but they were few and far between. It was considered too young and most younger sisters had to wait for their elder sisters to be married before they were allowed out in society. There's a difference between the class of people we see depicted in Bridgerton vs the landed gentry we see depicted in Jane Austen's books and so that's why her characters are a bit older before they're considered on the shelf (see Charlotte Lucas and Caroline Bingley). Of course, her novels are fiction but closer to the truth of the time than what we can get from works that are written in the present day.

@LucienSabre 9 күн бұрын

@@s6r231 It’s both Regency and Victorian, but if in the Victorian era the marrying age got raised up a bit Regency was still a lot influenced by the previous century - when if parents so decided girls could have been married off as early as 14-15 years old.

@GomushinGirl 8 күн бұрын

@@s6r231 It's not, though - median age at first marriage actually dropped a bit in the Victorian era, and again in the 20th century. A quick Google will show that the median and mean age at first marriage in the regency era was in the mid twenties for women, and mid to late twenties for men. Austen wrote fiction, but the net result for most of her heroines was earlier than average marriage because of wealthy men - but even then, the only one of her main characters who definitively marries before age of majority is Lydia Bennet, who has to because she ran away with Wickham. In reality, even wealthy women seldom married before they reached their legal majority. If you want to hark to Austen for more similar examples to Bridgerton, look at the Elliots, and how Elizabeth is still presented as a perfectly marriageable women in her late 20s/early 30s. Also, please, please remember that the author of the Bridgerton novels does not accurately represent the period or the social class at all. They have very scant research, and many demonstrable inaccuracies. It's fine for the show to make up whatever it wants, it's not fine for us to take that as representation of actual period norms.

@GomushinGirl 8 күн бұрын

@@LucienSabre But they didn't. Please, just Google. Go to JSTOR. Use any academic archive you like, but there is a fair amount of information on median age at first marriage for both Regency and Victorian England, and pretty much nobody was marrying off their daughters before they attained legal majority at 21. Marrying off a 14 year old would have been an actual scandal.

@Ashbrash1998 The youngest you could start marrying was usually as young as 13. If If you go from when Pen started she was 16. Let's not even go into fictional time passing. If she was 16 in SS1 in 2020. That means she is now 20-21. Kate was too old at 26. A daughter with 0 prospects and 2 married sisters was a spinster. And she wasn't even the youngest in the books. Felicity was younger and 'out' and had secured a suitor.

@GomushinGirl 10 күн бұрын

@@jameyst.peters4678 Except you couldn't start marrying as young as 13 - English law put age of majority at 21 during the Regency. Kate actually wasn't "too old" at 26, but merely a year or two older than the average bride for the period. A 22 year old with 2 married sisters was just . . . not yet married.

A lot of people here need to read the Clandestine Marriage Act of 1753 and 1836 before they go spouting off about average ages of marriage in the Regency and Victorian period. There's a lot of people here who are just flat-out wrong about median age of marriage in the era, and need to stop getting their historical knowledge from bodice rippers.
