50s Style Mugs

50s style mugs
This is a nice solid mug for those who love the 1950’s!

This cup is in all white that matches many people’s modern kitchen style. It has a black print on the front of the mug and is small.

The mug fits a good amount of coffee and looks to be sturdy as well. This cup has a tiny handle and has a round bottom.

My aunt has a cup that is this similar and it reminds me of when she gets her morning coffee. She bought one for my grandpa, but he does not use it much. Anyway, she loves her coffee all black without any creamer which is quite strange.

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...

The Ugly Topics in the 1950's

Coming up on number one is Nylon stockings with the seams up the back and the girdle or garter belt that one needed to wear hose.  Movies and television shows were in black and white. No options for color back in the 50's until the later years.  White gloves were often required and no trousers were to be seen in public. If you were naked out in the streets you would be disowned.  Popular hairstyles of this era were a ponytail or one like the actress Lucille Ball.  Lots of women wore their hair up and this gave them the appearance to look older.  Girls and ladies wore aprons for many of the household chores and it looked unfashionable. Schools were segregated in the 1950's and it was very common that children did not finish highschool.  Kids back in this era had stricter rules and grew up way quicker than many children today.  People had to wear modest clothing and always look presentable.  Racism was a thing back in the 50's and you did not see mu...
