50's Homes Sound Scary

During the 1950s houses were so different compared to ones today. Many of them contained popular colors such as pastel, Scandinavian, and moderns.

Kitchens were usually had lots of pastel cabinets, floors, tables, chairs, and soaps.

While 50's bathrooms had tiled pastel and accented dark colors.

Others had red or colored carpets and brick walls in their living rooms.

It seemed that every room had to have a window and were smaller in size for a family home.

The 1950's style homes were built with wood shake or wood shingle roofs. The bathrooms were built to be indestructible.

These house had great charm and charisma when just gazing at them and the neighborhoods were well established too.

It is said that houses during this era were more affordable to middle and lower classes than the newer ones.

One thing I have to say is they kept their houses and front yards spotless and kept them looking amazing.

Compared to our houses today the 50's houses were much more simpler and made sure to have lots of colors.

The average cost to buy a house in this era was around $2,990 through $7,400 for median incomes.

Most of these houses were commonly built in the suburbs and wanted to have children in a good and fun environment.

Within the mid 1940's it was known there was a shortage of houses and this was because of the war at that time.

It was all the funding that went to World War II that messed the economy up and left people to have limited food and be left with little to no houses to buy.

Women were Disowned for Having Children Out of Wedlock

Many women during the 1950’s gave up their children for adoption and it was mostly because of babies being born out of wedlock. Within this time ladies who got pregnant out of wedlock were shamed and disowned by their friends and families. They were considered a disgrace to the family to have a child before marriage. During this era, it was widely judged. Which I can understand why they would be disowned because they could not wait until marriage but on the other hand it happens sometimes. Many women gave up their babies up for adoption had the right to refuse to disclose the identity of the father. Lots of the ladies did choose to tell people who the father was but it was more common that the women refused to tell. Social workers at the time respected these women’s decisions about this situation. I personally have mixed emotions about this topic. I do not think that people should be ashamed for having children out of wedlock but still should be widely influenced to hav

4 Scandalous Outfits in The 50’s!

This TikTok video shows four scandalous outfit styles women wore in during the 1950’s era. Jasmine Chiswell has put together great examples. It is interesting to know that during this time period women wearing tight short shorts was considered clothing that made people talk bad about. How it brought a bad reputation to some by just wearing these shorts. Today many people wear skintight shorts but that is the norm in society. During the 50’s women were to wear modest clothing and look like a presentable housewife. You were not to wear anything that counteracted this image. This representation could be good for some but bad for others if they did not wish to follow this norm. Coned shaped bras are quite strange I have to admit. They are pointy and do accentuate a women’s chest. I can understand where people were coming from when coned bras were labeled as a scandalous piece of clothing. They bring lots of amount of attention to a women’s chest area and could make some feel unco
