To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks
The crowd at my local bar is mostly older people or younger working-class people. The jukebox is popular, and people play everything from the big band era, to 50s pop and rock, to 60s pop and rock, to country, to more recent pop, to jazz, to heavy metal, to R&B, and blues. A wise guy will even toss in a rap song every once in a while just to get a rise out of people.

One thing I've noticed is that the pop music of the 50s - pre-feminist, pre-leftist - is typically much more sensitive and respectful of women than what followed as the left took over the music scene. There is little to none of the crude sexualization of women and the misogyny that is so often found in today's rap, hip-hop- and pop - the music of the so-called enlightened generation.

Now that I think about it, you’re right.
