<p>[QUOTE="Chinoiserie, post: 12848742, member: 79460"]Its funny that someone should comment on this today. This morning, a young contractor was removing the legacy fire alarm panel where I work and found an old newspaper behind it used as packing material. It was from 2005, the year that the fire alarm panel was installed. He was fascinated by it. I quipped about it having a page 3 so he asked me when page 3s began in newspapers. I said I couldn't remember. They have had nudity in newspapers for as long as I remember in the 1980s, up until the mid nougties perhaps. I guess it started not long before the 1980s as before that it would have been deemed very promiscuous to display nudity so readily. Now it is deemed unacceptible for quite the opposite. Its considered demeaning. Just a reflection on how society changes. It will be interesting to see how social values change over the next 30 years, if I make it so far.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
