Women just carried sexy differently in the 50’s & 60’s.

Lady in the middle is Yvonne De Carlo. Not sure of the other two.
You mean actresses that were all dolled up?
Nostalgia is a hell of a drug.
Cleavage? We see that today.
Cleave, makeup and dresses. I dunno, I see that today as well.
Nah, you just have a photo of 3 of the sexiest women of that decade.
Was this photo taken on New Year’s Eve 1959?
oooorrrrrr you cherry-picked a photo of three of the sexiest women of all time
Not sure how many upvotes one can expect when disparaging half the population.
Ok boomer.
Yes. They were even more oppressed than now.
What a corny ass post.
Differently how, exactly?
They’re all wearing a full face, pretty jewelry, and strapless dresses they’re almost popping out of.
Sure, they’re not skeletal and don’t (yet) have cosmetic work done because these things were not expected of them at the time. They were the standard, instead of trying to live up to an artificial standard involving filters and ridiculous artistic representations in video games and anime.
It’s not just misleading, but deeply sexist to imply that somehow they were a higher caliber intrinsically. No, they submitted to beauty standards just as women do today; the difference is that those beauty standards were not as robotic as they are currently.
If you’re wondering why I’m saying it’s deeply sexist, it’s because it implies women have changed for the worse. The main difference between then and now is that women have much better rights now, so the implication is that having rights somehow ruined women.
Another ugly implication is that they’re beautiful because they’re white, while a lot of models today are of color, biracial, etc.
If you want a more natural beauty standard, then support models and actresses who look like human beings. Stop buying art products which promote unrealistic images of women, be vocal with developers and directors, stop simping and sending money to women who are visibly enhanced, call out filter use, etc. These artificial beauty standards didn’t come out of nowhere – they’re a response to demand. End the demand and the standards will change in response.
I don’t get it. They’re just women? How are they different?
Let’s not forget the sexist environment these women had to endure! For all the weirdness today with plastic surgery and fillers etc…it is at least women taking control. To what extent is open for discussion.
Did they? Cus people still where this type of dress. Sometime men too.
Oh shut up you muppet 🙄
Way to ruin a gorgeous pic with an idiotic caption.
This picture smells like cigarettes
They were allowed to have body fat
Women with big boobs have always known how to accentuate their big boobs.
People didn’t carry cameras as much in the 50’s & 60’s…
This is the Crème de la Crème…
Sofia Yvonne and Gina
I can’t wait for kids 80 years from now talking about how women back in the early 20’s to be the best
Sophia has always been on another level.
Unsure who that is in the middle, but Sophia Loren (left) and Gina Lollobrigida (right) definitely are two of the most beautiful women in Italian cinema of the 50s and 60s.
Sadly, Gina died last month at the age of 95 (good run though). Sophia is still with us, age 88.
Sexy women still look the same to me? Maybe fashion and style has changed but not that much.
r/lewronggeneration
Nice picture. Horrible title.
Sophia Loren, Yvonne De Carlo, and Gina Lollobrigida
They carry sexy different now too 😆
I think OP just misses segregation
From left to right, Sophia Loren, Yvonne di Carlo and Gina lolabridga. Not sure if I spelled right
Take 3 random women at an award ceremony and they are dressed like this.
Or does OP think this photo is from an average Tuesday?
The one on the far left good lord.
Back then, women wore makeup, jewelry, and styled their hair.
Nothing like today’s woman.
Also boobs. Too bad we don’t have boobs anymore.
r/terriblefacebookmemes
Yes, I’m sure they all looked exactly like this.
These are movie stars who are dressed up for an event. OP chose a particularly poor example to try to illustrate their point.
They also had access to a wide variety of drugs, smoking was okay and sugar wasn’t in everything they ate.
Men were different too, America has a high obesity rate now. No one looks the same.
Old school incel
OP likes grannies
Still seems to land as well as ever.
I mean, two of them look ready to fight someone, and that’s not my kink so…yea. nostalgia is a wierd drug grandpa.
Wild, OP straight up deleted ALL of his comments and the post.
But he DID take the same shtick elsewhere though, where he wasn’t getting similarly blasted, lol.
