If someone from 100 years ago stumbled upon this app, what posts would surprise or shock them the most?

Question

Jackblue · Accepted Answer

It depends on what social class they are as well as their age. A lot of common people probably wouldn't have too big a problem. Some literature from that period could be quite vulgar like the recent English translation of "The Arabian Nights". As for the upper classes, college aged young me could be just as bad as frat boys today, young women would have been more proper, however the 1920's was a period of change. Corsets were now quite rare as women donned more breathable attire. The flappers were also making an appearance. In pretty much every society in world history, even ones where women had more status like Native Americans, women stayed close to their homes and villages and men went out. The flappers, utilizing the new invention of the automobile challenged that, going out partying at bars. Older upper class generations would probably not be too thrilled about what they saw on this site.

Depending who they are or how they lived there life. I don't think to many things would

They would be shocked to see nonbinary genderqueer trans* people living our truths. I mean like we always existed, but back then, we were all suppressed.

they wouldn't know how to use digital tools yet.. haha let alone how to turn on a laptop or a phone

MisterWack · Answer

Lesbians, Gays, African Americans, Jews, Crazy White People, Italians, Irish, Greeks, Asians, Immigrants, etc. all talking & discussing with each other.

Even seeing an app where Girls discuss with Guys on different topics also women seen as people would have them clutching their pearls I bet.

Just my thought, also maybe seeing ‘Liberal’ describe Democrats instead of Republicans or seeing Democrats being the Party of Equality / First Black US President would make their heads explode.

Really depends, 100 years is a long time after all.
