Taking Her Stockings Was the Last Straw

He was stretching them

Here are some of the things that Rebecca Kreger, a Pittsburgh resident in 1922, could deal with her husband doing:

• Kicking
• Beating
• Keeping company with other women

But he had better stay out of her underwear.

I was somewhat surprised to stumble on this article from 1922 in which a woman had her husband called into court on a moral charge, because she claimed that she caught him wearing her stockings and lingerie.

I managed to get along with him until the other morning. When I awoke I went to my trunk for an undergarment, and I found that my husband had been there before me and taken it. My silk stockings and other lingerie had also been removed, and later I found that my husband was wearing them. He should have been ashamed to do such a thing, but he wasn't.
