WTF 1950s

[Tea Earl Grey Hot]

Omg those videos are chocked full of potential radio sound bites.

I was bored and wondered..."gee, I wonder how they taught sex to kids in the 1950s" so I went on YouTube. I was fairly shocked. They're so explicit. I thought it being the 50s and all it would be full of innuendo and metaphor but no, it's all so straightforward. What gets me the most is how the kids and adults in these films are completely unashamed at all about what's being discussed. It's like they're talking about just any old subject.

shocked????

Well, first of all, even in the 1950's there existed people with brains in their heads. I'm sure many christards attempted to keep these sort of films from reaching the public school system, but lets not forget that Elvis and his pelvis came out of the same decade. Even during repressed times, there are still plenty of enlightened ones to teach the world.

Secondly, they're actors bro. They're saying things that they would never say in front of their real parents/coaches. Even in today's society, no one goes around saying, "Hey guess what, I had a wet dream last night and semen came out of my penis."

I'm not remotely shocked by these videos. However, I would be shocked to find that even a handful of public schools were able to show them without some group of religious fucktards blowing up about how indecent it all was.

It's really the jarring clash between the 1950's stereotypical naivety and sort of overly polite and overly optimistic attitude (think Leave it to Beaver) and the sexual explicit language in these videos. Those are two mutually exclusive qualities in my mind. Here we have "ejaculation" in the same breath as "gee golly that's swell!" I know everyone weren't prudes back then but to see non-prudish language in the context stereotypical prudish '50s settings (the nuclear family household...the classroom etc) is completely wtf.
