Victorian Etiquette Between Husbands and Wives 

I like how it shows men and women as different, and how that is a strength in developing goodness in one another. Patience and kindness people, patience and kindness and balance :)

It's a shame etiquette books and guides have gone out of fashion, we so often see them in a negative light these days, but I think many marriages and relationships can be improved by these bits of advice. Thank you for sharing! PS: I've been a fan of yours for years since your corset book (I corset as well), but didn't realize you had this channel, so glad I found you!

I feel like this advice is useful in any era and I also like that it emphasises the joint responsibility of both the husband and wife and reminds them that they're on the same team, it's definitely better than the baby boomer "I hate my wife" jokes. It's not like Victorian people didn't have the same marriage problems we do today, but I feel like the advice then was better and more supportive of the young couple.

I think films and sitcoms have trained us to view relationships as a continual Battle of the Sexes!! One always seems to be trying to dominate the other,rather than trying to be equal.

You're going to get some grief but TOO BAD. As a divorced man I think if I took to heart some of what you said I'd still be married. The short version of marriage etiquette...GROW UP !!!!!! Hope you guys are well. The first three books in your series is coming in two days. Be well.

perfect timing as I'm sure many husbands and wives should be working on their etiquette with one another being that we have to be together 24/7 now 😂😂👍

God, I miss this time!

They are so cute 😭❤ I Just love them!

A very enjoyable video, indeed! Gabriel and Sarah Chrisman are a lovely couple! The Victorian Etiquette between husbands and wives should be revived for today's married couples! It might help both newly weds, and older married couples. Couldn't hurt, eh? ~Janet in Canada

1:58 is my favorite! No matter what century you are in always have a lovely good bye!!

I remember watching this video a year or two ago and I couldn't find it for the life of me until today. Such a lovely presentation and sentiment.

That was simply lovely, we could do with re introducing this wisdom into our lives.

This video was absolutely delightful! It made me almost teary-eyed, grateful to recognize so many of the guidelines for husbands are performed habitually by my own husband. 💗 I recognized a couple points I can brush up on, myself. 😉 Books like this are priceless! I just added it to my Amazon cart, and look forward to reading more. 😁 -Jesse Danson (Skagit Valley)

You guys are so lovely! I am obsessed with etiquette books but I've never read one focused on married couples, its so interesting how small details are highlighted so much!

I have read a great deal of the sample of this on kindle, but I just purchased the actual book. I love how the duties stated in the book are almost *completely* in keeping with Islamic duties between spouses. It makes me feel great that I can merge my life-long passion for Victorian ettiquette with my new religion and its decrees. The best of both worlds in my opinion. Acting upon them is something that would take a lot of practice, but I am sure they make things more smooth than what they would otherwise be without such guidance. You guys are amazing.

This was such sound advice even in this day. It seems civil behavior has been lost by some. I saved up and bought one of your kindle books, very much enjoying it.

This actually pretty wonderful, I shared this video with my girlfriend. 😁

I really love these two. Sarah looks really cute and Gabriel often looks quite dapper. You do what you do and please keep sharing, we enjoy it a lot.

Beautiful advice. I wish more people would heed it.

I couldn't fault any of that advice- it was lovely and based on kindness and respect.

Hi Sarah, I'm curious, how did you guys meet? I would love to see a video and have you explain how you two came to be together especially since you both love the Victorian era and love living in a historical way of life...it's like you were meant to be. ❤

This would be a great wedding gift

recently bought your book: Words for Parting; can't wait to read it!

Absolutely beautiful. This needs to be followed. Women of course work now days, but the simple principles of respect work. A marriage of two=one love.

I wish etiquette of all types was more emphasized in our society today. We have become so casual, there is little respect left. Men and women are different, for each have different roles and responsibilities. Thank you for this!

Great! I've always loved dressing victorian to early 1900's. In the past three years I've turned my whole life into one victorian paradise. I live in endglad so getting hold of a victorian terrace house is quite easy. I also love engineering and trains, so I've started working in the past year as an engineer and driver at a heritage railway near me originally built in 1859. It's in the middle of nowhere so its just us all dressed as victorian workers sitting in a small village pub as steam trains roll by as well as traction engines and hansom carriages. Hope you're loving life too.

❤️❤️❤️Lots of advice applies to this day :) thanks for this! I love that you are uploading more videos right now. Would love to see more baking videos, I just love your channel! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My copy of "A bouquet of Victorian roses" just arrived today in Edinburgh. I am very excited!

This was lovely. Elevating to hear. I would wish all of this for all humans - 9f every socioeconomic 'class.' As Sarah did not find a corset dehumanizing, neither do I find these precepts for both (shall just say 'both'!) sexes to be so. I am certain, as a 63 y/o woman, that I am not the only one to feel that I missed out on formerly sanctioned aspects of womanhood. Further, I recognize/acknowledge that I would have been a better woman/person, had such volumes/teachings been readily available during more recent eras. The two of you share so much of worth - thank you.

Those are such wonderful pieces of advice! I'm a wife myself and a couple of those pieces of advice I thought "Oops I do that . . . gotta stop". I agree with the lady below. I think that marriages would definitely improve with these types of advice. I didn't find any of it sexist, quite the contrary. It puts a wife and husband into roles not gender inequalities that can be follow amicably. Thankyou for sharing!

Lovely ! Thank you

Much better than I expected.

so cool! thank y’all!

Woah. I thought that It would be a bunch of rediculous rules but that... was beautiful! I am just a kid but I'll hang onto that advice, I may need it. Haha

Awesome guys..love u😍

Wisdom words! It was really interesting to see you both help each other load the ice box, I've always wanted to see what format was the ice you had available since I've read your book a victorian life!

Girl how did you bag that hot chap?

I'll admit it : I was fully prepared to be offended at the advice. Boy was I pleasantly surprised. There was absolutely NOTHING untoward about any of it. It was marvelous advice and surprisingly modern.

I absolutely love the Victoria era

All good advice.

Great

Amazing

A wonderful couple. 👫

Love these Biblical values. Ephesians 5: 22-25. ; 33

OMG. If every married couple read this book there would be no divorces.

Hey Mrs.Sarah may I please ask to give us a tour of your beautiful house please?
