While having issues researching a future episode, I binge-watched season one of Hulu's Harlots and I could not stop thinking about it. This episode does not discuss the show but it does discuss female sex workers of 18th century London. Where did these women come from and what caused them to be apart of the sex industry? Was it empowering or oppressive? All that and more in this episode of Undressed Historia.
