If you've followed my postings for any length of time, you'll find similarities in themes. Stockings and pantyhose, wives and daughters, flashers and peepers, rough sex and even the occasional 'odd' pic or two now and then, even though some of those do get deleted by Admin from time to time. But the gallery I posted on 9-19-19 is very indicative of what my preferences are. I'm definitely a dyed-in-the-wool leg man. Specifically legs covered in sheer, sensual nylon. And preferably in stockings instead of pantyhose.

See, I honestly believe I was born into the wrong era. Don't get me wrong, I like 'now' about as much as I've liked any of the years I've lived in, but I find many of today's attitudes frustrating and much of today's technology irritating. Computers and the internet are awesome and I've made a living with computers for decades, but...

Back in the 1950's and 1960's, before 'free love' and disco, many things about life were different. If something broke, you usually tried to fix it instead of disposing of it. You could actually work on your car, or your television or your radio. So much then was electro-mechanical instead of electronic which meant with a little knowledge and some elbow grease, you could actually repair something or rebuild something instead of simply hoping it would last long enough to get your money's worth out of it. 

And attitudes were different as well. Not only were people generally more polite, but appearances were more important as well. Women especially never went out of the house without looking neat and at least looking like they'd made an effort to be dressy. If you went shopping, even simply for groceries, women, and men too, at least made an effort to look good. And don't get me started about air travel. Airplanes and jets weren't a time for sweat pants and t-shirts, they were a time for you to dress to the nines.

Men who worked in offices or in sales wore suits. Women wore dresses and skirts and most didn't own a pair of pants. Most meals were cooked at home and eating out was a rare event which definitely called for looking your best since you would be making a public appearance. Back in the 1940's, since nylon and even satin was required for the war effort (WWII used every scrap of nylon it could find for parachutes and the like), women couldn't FIND stockings, let alone afford them so in an effort to look sexy and uptown, it wasn't unusual to find that the 'seam' running up the back of her leg in an attempt to mimic a stocking seam was actaully some type of magic marker drawn on her leg instead. So, yes. Appearances were definitely a thing. 

And porn was vastly different as well. Not that all the variations of porn we can so easily find today weren't there, its that finding the hardcore and kinky stuff was a rarity. Many magazines available for 'public consumption' were very similar to many of the pictures in the 9-19-19 gallery. Yes, bare breasts and sensual scenes were still the main focus, but most magazines rarely showed any 'fur' and seeing a woman's slit in a magazine was a cause for controversy. If you wanted to see women's pussies in 'mainstream' magazines, you had to look for Penthouse or Hustler or 'movie review' magazines. Another reality of most magazines and videos of the time was the fact that if you saw an image of a woman, it was a woman. Finding pictures of magazines where a hard cock was visibly inserted inside of a willing hole was... well... scandalous at the very least. Most magazines and videos of a sexual nature were concealed in drawers, in the back of closets and 'saving a copy' meant you kept the magazine instead of throwing it away.  

Today, of course, with the internet, simply putting the search term "cunt" into a search engine will bring you thousands of images of women's.... well.., cunts. Hardcore pix are as easy to find as non-nude ones, 'selfies' are definitely a thing and unless you're totally clueless, finding pictures of underage girls online is as easy as using the search term "teen selfie" in pretty much any search engine. Beastie pix and videos are just as easy to locate by using the search terms "animal sex" "horse fuck" "dog suck" etc. and in mere milliseconds, you'll find links and images that'd take years to explore. (Personally I like Yandex because the morality police haven't ripped the balls out of it, but that's just me.) And when you see a picture of a demure, sensual person dressed in lingerie and not revealing much of anything, that picture may not be of a true, genetic female, but a ladyboy/sissy/TV/TG instead. If you're a homophobe and not careful, you may actually yanking your crank because of a guy, not a gal. Won't that ruin your day?

However, I digress. For me, being born in the 1960's, I've watched the demise of stockings and their replacement with pantyhose and further into the lack of any hosiery at all. Many women today have some hazy notion of how important stocking were and finding a woman who wears stockings, or even pantyhose on a consistent basis is actually a fairly rare occurance. They'll either have bare legs or opaque tights/leggings, but sheer stockings, except for sex play, are pretty much a lost cause. And the concept of a corset or girdle is simply laughable.

Cars went from mechanical miracles you could fix with wrenches and screwdrivers to rolling computers that take more computers to diagnose and reparing one may cost more than the car itself. Televisons went from black and white to color, from huge cathode ray tubes to flat screens mere millimeters thick. I can keep going, but if you were born after 1990, then you'll never understand much of my angst.

Granted, back then, pollution and CO2 emissions weren't really a thing. Sexual harassment was a part of a woman's life and 'The American Dream' was something people everywhere, not just in America, wanted to have. Crime was less of an issue, war was more personal, even if you didn't have family in the military and gasoline was stupid cheap. 

Would I have enjoyed being a young man in the 1950's and 1960's? Most definitely. Would I have been more successful than I've been in my life to date? Possibly. But life is what it is. Today's world is interesting and exciting in ways, but I feel that I missed a lot of what I could've enjoyed more. Ah well...
