I agree Kat, I tell my girls all the time that when I was in school my sister's only choice was cheerleading, a fine activity, but I'm sure it's much more enjoyable as a "choice" as opposed to "the only game in town". Both my kids are really into sports....and they're both pretty good I must say! *BG* I was never a jock by any means, but I'm really enjoying their successes so far. They live in a different world and sometimes that is good.

I didn't start the thread to judge, or discuss political correctness at all (Note to self, Be careful when naming threads), I just wanted to know peoples ideas on why we overlay our views of today on a group of people that lived 50-60 years ago. What is accepted now and what was accepted then is more often than not different. Times change, people change.....I liked what Petr said when he wondered what future generations will think of us and our values.....I wonder the same thing myself.
