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?
Wearing clothes of the opposite gender.
Hopefully people’s weird hang up about gender all together won’t be around in 100 years.
I can see this happening in the future
It happened in the past.
Time begins and then time ends. And then time begins once again.
It is happening now, it has happened before, it will surely happen again.
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again.
We live, we die, then we live again! Ahhhhhhhhhjjjjjj
Yes, my husband is sooo cute wearing a dress even though he is 76 yo. Its time to change!
Lmao
This song is almost 40
nice find!
True. We should just get rid of gender because it’s all just a social construct anyways so it’s not even real. The world would be better off if we just got rid of gender and then you can wear whatever clothing you want without it being “closed off” because you don’t identify as that gender.
Okay, please don’t attack me if this is wrong to say, but I wonder sometimes if someone of the people questioning their gender just want to wear / like the things the opposite gender wears / likes without being attacked for it. Like if we just un-gender all the things, some people wouldn’t feel “trans” because they can outwardly represent themselves however they want without people judging them. (note: I am in no way trying to illegitimize anyone’s trans-ness).
I just can’t believe you could wear a flowy floral print summer dress and be considered a dependable guy by everyone. Some cultures put such an high effort to preserve their old ways that I can’t see that going away in 100 years, or even 300 years. The rest of us unfortunately have to play by their rules and taboos.
Last year, my father called me up to tell me that he saw a guy wearing a dress. He was obviously looking for a “This is surely a sign of the end times” reply, but I just said “So?”
My father then asked me if I’d wear a dress. I replied “it’s not for me, but I’m not going to judge someone who wants to wear one.”
I can definitely see “guy wearing a dress” going from “this is horrible and the guy should be arrested for such indecency” (what might have happened 100 years ago) to “whatever” in 100 years given how attitudes changed between my father’s generation (Boomer) and mine (GenX).
Oh I can see it go away in the next 100 years. Fashion can be very weird and chaotic.
Also, remember when men didn’t wear pants at all?
Heck, at one point wearing tights and high heels with a big white wig was the height of men’s fashion. Women, meanwhile, didn’t wear high heels or tights at all because those were “men’s clothing.”
So even if society doesn’t accept “men wearing a woman’s flowery sun dress” as normal, things might change so that flowery sun dresses are seen as masculine and guys who don’t wear them could be called various names.
Pants are for barbarians after all. Real, civilicedmen wear togas only. Chitons are acceptable but just barely.
Leggings and codpieces are back in fashion in 3… 2… 1…
God damnit, Bob, how many times have I said no white after Labor Day?
My husband has wore a flowery summer dress for our daughter tea party before and it didn’t make me think he was any less dependable. If anything they reason he wore it and how confidently he wore made me more attracted to him.
