I have a theory that people have simply forgotten why “old fashioned” things like undershirts, and (not in the winter) hats, gloves and scarves are actually USEFUL. It seems so strange that the whimsy of the trends could overcome the practicality

There’s a story that sales of undershirts dropped drastically when Clark Gable was filmed without one in It Happened One Night. Like there was truly a memetic overhaul based on a silver screen sighting? And now guys have spent nearly a hundred years sweating through shirts?

This kind of joke is such a good filter. The reactions show who is smart+funny+kind vs who is lacking in one or more of those traits. It’s okay if some people don’t get it because it’s a weird style of humor but people who see what’s going on but don’t think it’s a joke

I think women should be free to express themselves sexually without being "slut-shamed," but I also think normalizing promiscuity has been detrimental for women because it disincentivizes male investment and breaks the norm of monogamous relationships. Not sure how to resolve
