Why The Ugliest Woman In World's History Turned Down Over 20 Marriage Proposals EricajennyMay 20, 2021 8:47 AM Julia Pastrana, who suffered from a genetic condition that covered her face in hair, performed in circuses as a freak of nature. The woman in question was a performer and singer during the 19th century. Her name is Julia Pastrana though bullies call her Ape Woman due to her hairy body and fully grown hair on her face. Her condition left her with no choice but to perform circuses as a freak of nature. Julia Pastrana died in 1860 after giving birth to her only son with the similar genetic disorder who got to live for only a few days. In one interview for the press, she declared to have turned down more than twenty marriage proposals because of the candidates’ low financial status. Her ears and nose were abnormally large, and her teeth were irregular. This condition was caused by a rare, undiagnosed disease during her lifetime, gum hyperplasia, which thickened her lips and gums. After Rescuing Them, Firemen Realized They Weren't Puppies Wanderoam by TaboolaSponsored Links After Pastrana’s death, her husband, Lent, sold her and their son’s body to Professor Sukolov of Moscow University, who kept them permanently. Her body was preserved by taxidermy, a process that combines taxidermy techniques with embalming chemicals. Her singing and dancing skills brought her to the top of her career. For more than a hundred years, the bodies of Pastrana and her son have been exhibited around the world in museums, circuses, and amusement parks. They appeared in Norway in 1921 and toured the United States until 1972. Later that same year, a tour of Sweden aroused considerable public opposition. For much of her brief, sad life, Julia Pastrana was denigrated, dehumanized and put on display for the amusement - and profit - of others, including her own husband.
