Isn’t it amazing how many of the 19th-century rules of social decorum are now being shown to have been based on logic and an accurate understanding of human nature, rather than mere ‘chauvinism’ or ‘bigotry’?

In a number of ways, the 19th-century was a wonderful time. The British Empire was at its height, and America had a hugely booming economy (especially after the Civil War).

But we've been taught that the "Victorian Age" was all stuck-up and sexless and a really dark age in so many ways. Any good Progressive teacher will tell you all about it.

Likewise, the 1950s was a wonderful time. Great economic expansion, middle class values in ascendance, technical advances leading to a promising future. It was a great time. But we've been taught that it was all stuck-up and sexless and a really dark age in so many ways. Any good Progressive teacher will tell you all about it.

Almost makes you think the Progressives are trying to hide the truth about what makes a society successful (personal self control).

19th century rules killed by the 19th amendment. What a coincidence

Women in the workplace is one of those. Young, attractive women are singled out for special treatment by men and young, attractive men are singled out for special treatment by women. The young women know this, many of them do everything they can to maximize their sexual attractiveness because it creates opportunities for them. Truly unethical young women actively use sex to advance their career.

Older female managers almost universally discriminate in favor of younger, less qualified men that they find attractive.

ll this is why previous generations maintained a sexually segregated workforce. Sexual politics completely overwhelms workplace ethics and most people don’t even realize what they are doing when they are showing favoritism to younger attractive people of the opposite sex.
