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?

    It’s worth considering that obesity was far, far less common 40-50 years ago than it is now. I don’t know exactly why. It could have to do with something in the food supply, or some other environmental or cultural factor.
