A new meme for a new month

Oct 01, 2012 14:08

Because I love a good meme.

Yanked from rhoda-rants

1.) Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper.
2.) Explain in five sentences or less why you're using that wallpaper!
3.) Don't change your wallpaper before doing this!

So...I'm going to cheat because I'm between wallpapers and am using a plain one at the moment, and show you my last wallpaper which I had for a few months.




It's a screencap from The Young Victoria, one of my favorite movies, of Prince Albert (Rupert Friend) and Princess Victoria (Emily Blunt), the future queen of England. To anyone that knows me, I've always been interested in the Victorian Age but I didn't really study it until a couple years ago when I was doing research for a novel--that I'll hopefully write one day. During that process I became fascinated by the relationship between Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. In an era that was known for treating females as the weaker species, in Queen Victoria's household the roles were pretty much reversed: she had all the power and Prince Albert was treated as the weaker pair in the relationship, not only by royal heritage but by the English people as well. They are my OTP and I take great offense to anyone who tries to tell me otherwise.
