In the 1920's there was the era of sex, booze, and jazz and that of the flapper, your ancestor to the modern-day whore.

And in the 1960's you had women moving away from dresses and towards sweatshirts and blue jeans, along with it being the era of sex, drugs, and rock n' roll with the 'swinger girls.'

A 1960's wedding 'dress': :shocked:

Yeah, the sɛҳuąƖ revolution of the 1920s. Who knew we had more than one of them!

Well remember that the 1950's was also hardly a Victorian era on sɛҳuąƖ morality.

I say this because unfortunately I see a lot of traditional Catholics brag about how 'great' the 1950's was and how it was a utopia. :rolleyes:

Don't be one of those people. :wink:

My favorite movie from that time period (1920s) is "Beyond the rocks," with rudolph valentino and gloria swanson. It appears to me to basically be an assault on arranged marriage (i'm guessing that was already rare), but ends up being an assault on marriage in general. Fundamentally changing marriage from a sacrament, into a civil contract, with lots of loopholes. In essence, not much more profound than "going steady."

Interesting the change in priorities (aka values) that occurs in gloria swanson. She goes from putting her family first, to putting her own selfish desires first.

Outrageously, the men all go along with her, even if it means betrayal or self-sacrifice, to the point of death.

In this sense, it seems as if her own selfish desires, become the "new compass" for the culture.

That's a revolution!

Of course, I'd think that this is just a vehicle for revolution, to use on the masses. The "real" revolution is occurring in the economy and is driven by greed. But, in america, if you say that, it makes you michael moore!

But that's just the two party scam. They make you choose between jobs or murdering babies, but in the end, neither side delivers!
