In the late 19th to early 20th centuries, women suddenly faced more street harassment than before. Of course, they weren't going to take that lying down and so came up with new ways to defend themselves thanks... to fashion. This week on That Time When we talk about the hatpin panic, and once again see that nothing ever really changes in history. By the way, if you do want to listen to the song we discuss (if you really want to hear the whole, dark thing) you can search for "Never go Walking out without your Hatpin" performed by Elsa Lanchester.
