Years ago I visited a country school museum in SC. It had been in operation into the early 20th century. I remember one of the things one could be "disciplined" for was being left-handed. The fact that we so recently considered a common genetic trait to be a flaw to be corrected sets sobering expectations for the acceptance of non-binary sexuality.

The history of wishing people weren't what they are and punishing them for it is long and dark and shows no signs of relenting. As a corollary, abortion is closer to illegal now than it has been for decades; not to mention nearly unavailable in vast areas. There are, for example, 2 Planned Parenthood clinics in the entire state of Louisiana; 1 in Mississippi.

We are not at the Handmaid's Tale tipping point. But we aren't headed in the other direction either.

Langger posted a link to the article that I was able to open. My heart goes out to this lady. It was not up for her mentor to judge her personal life. This was someone she admired and, thought of as her friend. Very sad for her. I hope her future works out well even without the recommendations of this mentor.

Which is ideal, in a perfect world. However with the threat of haphazardly interpreted public morality laws in our current legal sexual dystopia, there is an element of self preservation involved.

Many people who know little to nothing about the issue, and even some who should know better are viscerally opposed to sex work, and sex workers, and that's why the laws are still there.

Sorry I digress a bit
It's good that you're contemplating how things used to be.
Time wise, in the current defacto "Pax Americana" we are in a small island of Utopia. Certainly, it is not perfect, but it is closer to what most people consider perfect than any other time in history, which was an unrelenting horror show. People need to study history and pay attention to details. Eugenics, slavery, race riots, lynchings, normalized torture, arbitrary arrests and no presumption of innocence, genocides, mass murders, brutal punishments for non-conformity and differing inherent sexuality the list goes on forever.

You bring up two different topics. I'm not quite sure how you tie abortion and, Planned Parenthood into your post. But, that issue should be discussed in the political section.

LOL. I can identify. But, most mainstream folks see prodoms as sex workers.
