1970 was about the time Myra Breckinridge hit movie screens. I saw it because I was an idiot teen and Raquel Welch was in it. I was disturbed after it that I’d wasted my money on that trash. Gotta start learning somewhere I guess.
I still remember when the news was full of “ Christine Jorgensen” stories back then.
I also remember how Thalidimide was used as an excuse to push abortion.
To push an evil law the news media will always try to manipulate our emotions with weeping and wailing stories of such things, and how we need to make it “right”, without looking into the”unintended consequences” of such laws.
