Women Who Were Considered "Fat" in The 50s Are Labeled as Skinny Today

What is good about this video is that they do not shame you because you are overweight but they try and tell you that your health is at risk.

They seem to care about your health and weight but this may be just this film they produced.

The narrator expresses the concern that excessive calorie intake can cause you to have a lower lifespan.

How men and women should not eat too much and stay fit not only for themselves but their children too.

Looking at what the 50's called "fat" seems to be skinny in the modern age today and they look healthy.

They do not have rolls that break the clothes nor seem to have them altered to their body shapes.

This video caters more towards older people as they look at a picture frame from when they used to be young and thin.

Although I do not think that older people should be bashed a lot but I think that they do what is right for their bodies and health.

Elders do not have good metabolisms like they did when they were younger and people in the 50's should not fault them for that.

People in the 1950's did not need to this harsh criticism for their weight they were perfectly healthy and should not be stick thin.

Bad Boys in the 1950s

These type of men/teens were the most idolized people in the 1950's along with some celebrities. One celebrity in particular that had the bad boy style and his name was James Dean. This type of outfit melted the girls/women's hearts at the time. Males would wear a leather or denim jackets, white or patter button up top underneath, blue or light jeans, either a quiff hair or leave it natural with some gel in it. I think of the outfits that Johnny Depp would wear in his Crybaby movie with his slicked back hair, leather jacket, and a rebellious but hot vibe. Today we label these type of people as bad boys but back in the 1950's they were called the greasers and apart of the greaser subculture. Looking back at these photos you never saw older men wearing this style, it was mostly teenagers and young adults. Those who dressed this way were definitely very popular in high school. Let's also not forget they added a cigarettes to compliment the look. If any o...

Blue and Red Word Search Book

This is an awesome booklet for those who love the 50’s! It has many pages to keep your brain busy by searching for words with just your eyes. I noticed that is has yellow wording and an arrow indicating to open the book. The front page has labeled the 1950’s on it and the author has made sure to put their name on it. At the top right corner of the red/yellow square you see a star shape. My sister loves to do crossword puzzles and she has a collection of them in her closet. It reminds me of seeing her use them at her doctor’s visits.

What Is A Pin Up Girl and What Did She Do?

A pin up girl is a person who is sexually attractive and usually a famous person that wears little clothes. A good example to compare is people who are Instagram models. The difference is that women were less shamed about how their bodies looked back in the 1950's such as they did not nit pick about how a woman has arm fat or that she is too curvy. It was more they were judged about how they were showing their bodies so freely and wore scandalous clothes that turned their husbands heads. Which today some people still do that but it is more encouraged now to show your body freely and not judge women on how much skin they show unless it is nudity. Pin up girls mostly wore high-waisted bottoms to show off their curves and hips. They also included high-waisted skinny jeans with buttons on the sides, Capri pants high-waisted shorts, and pencil skirts. It was so scandalous if a woman were to show their stockings, wore a deep V-neck, and showed any clothing items that r...
