The Censorship Was So Strong Back Then


You can really notice it when watching shows from the 1950s ('60s too). It was unbelievable that married couples were shown sleeping in separate beds and that the word "pregnant" couldn't even be said. The word "expecting" was a more acceptable way of addressing it.

It seemed like almost anything of an adult nature was, well, taboo back then.

The more I study it, the greater the puzzle becomes.

Gee. Laurel and Hardy always slept in a double bed.
