[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 408161, member: 23"] Yes. And those goggles only add to the creepiness. I know what you mean. At the same time I find it quite tantalising. I'm currently re-watching episodes of a British soap from the Eighties and every episode comes with the caveat: "Contains language and attitudes of the time*". It's kind of funny to try and get my head round my teenage years being some distant point in time that's so ancient it's considered period. *[I][SIZE=3] Every so often there'll be the additional warning: "Contains scenes which viewers may find distressing", which makes an episode even more inviting. At the same time I remember repeats used to air at 5pm on a Saturday and nobody batted an eye, much less warned anyone. Yet we lived through it unscathed. [/SIZE][/I] Interesting. I'm reasonably familiar with LGBT history of this era in Britain. Perhaps I should expand and read up on neighbouring countries. Out of interest, are there any films you'd recommend which are set during this time in the Netherlands? [/QUOTE]
