( No Title )
I absolutely love how much people fetishize the 1950s as this amazing time for stay at home moms, meanwhile these moms were taking absurd cocktails of tranquilizers and amphetamines just to cope with how stressed and overworked they were.
I will fetishize the 1950s aesthetic in fiction from here to next sunday but the doped up housewives are part of the appeal. 🤣
Give me the nasty, hidden underbelly of the american dream.
Amazing time for WHITE PEOPLE. Can we be specific?
I mean, my point is that the 1950s was not an amazing time at all, except for a few wealthy men.
The people who genuinely seem to believe it was an amazing time are mostly white people though, yes that’s correct.
