Okay, but what about all those 18th-century women sitting in gardens and meadows and not having the slightest clue what was causing them to sneeze. Like they didn't know what hay fever was. They didn't know about allergies. All they knew was when the flowers began to bloom, so did the itch in their sinuses. And they were wearing corsets. So just think about them trying to be ladylike, while being overwhelmed with the most desperate sneezes and having to keep gasping for more air because that damned corset kept restricting their chest from expanding to full capacity.
