I was reading a book on social life of the upper-middle class and new rich of the American 1920s and realized so many things we now do proudly were considered socially taboo back then. This was especially the case for clothing, makeup, women in certain public spaces, etc. What do you think will be different in the 2120s? Or maybe even the next 50 years?

    While I do agree that this is a double standard, I don’t see any signs of it going away

      It has been a thing in many African and South American indigenous communities for centuries. And it’s a normal thing to do in many European beaches.

      So whereas you’re technically right - I don’t see signs of it going away in our communities either - I wouldn’t discard it too quickly.
