>no niggers

worth it tbqhfamalam

also once you got past infancy the life expectancy was 60-70 years, people throw around the "25 years" meme because they don't understand how high childhood mortality was.

>Everyone smells like shit, bad breath ect

Bathing was common even in the dark ages

>Broken back from working 16 hours a day.

Actually peasants had fairly good lives unless a war or famine broke out

You should really stop repeating Enlightenment era myths as if they were fact. Next you will tell me Tabula Rasa is correct.

That means your children would have a massive risk of dying. Also the average if you got past 30 was about 50 - 60 still way too low.

Peoples breath would still smell like shit and I doubt baths do much. They had no deodorant. Plus the smell of shit everywhere from no toilets.

Peasant life was terrible if you compare it to our luxuries now.

They wouldn't have bad breath because they wouldn't eat the processed shit we eat today

less education for sure but less intelligent? nah.
>>Average life expectancy of 25
Stupid meme dragged down by infant deaths. If you lived to see your 10th birthday you could expect to make it to 70.
>>Everyone smells like shit, bad breath ect
Depends where you are for bathing
>>No internet
Who needs internet when youve got the Bible
>>No antibionics, chemotherapy, pain killers
Almost no cancer
>>Broken back from working 16 hours a day.
BS even a shitty peasantg in the 1600s was working 8 - 10 hour days, you cant plant at night.

The age one is correct. Maybe not to live to, but the historic "average life expectancy" is horribly skewed by infant and child deaths

Why would you willingly smell like shit?

>Broken back from working 16 hours a day.

Dudes spent like 6 hours working and the rest of the day chillin at the pub with their bros or with their family at Church.

I'm pretty sure bathing was fairy common in the middle ages, contrary to some myths that are being spread. Also, even if it wasn't common: when everyone smells, no one does.

>we live like fucking kings
No we dont. They just had shitty lives. Now we have a bit less shitty lives.
