I don’t remember Victorians organizing gang rapes as part of their “culture”.
No, but come to think of it, Victorian England was a “morally repressed society” with rampant prostitution and an unfortunate fixation by many men on defloration of virgins. The legal age of consent in England was 12, until it was raised to 13 in 1875.
Here’s a very famous expose of child prostitution in England, published by a journalist. WT Stead, in 1885, The Maiden Tribute of Modern Babylon.
