QUIZ: Would You Be Asked to Dance in a Jane Austen Novel?

At least twice a week, I wonder how I would fare in Jane Austen’s world of ballrooms, gossip, and snappy dialogue. Considering my aversion to fashionable bonnets, my lack of decorum, and the frequency with which I get mustard on my shirt, I think it’s safe to assume I would be severely shunned if not banished from society outright.

But I didn’t know for sure, so I made this quiz. Now you, too, can calculate your odds in the veritable battle royale of Regency dances, then plan accordingly in case of time travel. Score!
