Not correct about Victorians. For example, after her ninth child her doctor told Queen Victoria that she she probably shouldn't have anymore children. Her reply, ``What? No more fun in bed.''

Actually, that IS how the society viewed sex during that time. But it's something that is a mystery to me. Victoria and Albert had such a wonderful, loving relationship, as proved by her nine(?) children, IMO. I'm not sure the blame goes to her or if the taboo on sex just happened along at the time she became queen.
