Well I'm a woman, so yeah. But I also read a book a few years ago that talked about how a person traveling in time from the 1900s to the 1950s would be astounded and amazed at all the advances we as a society had made, but that someone traveling from the 1950s to the 2000s would not be nearly as shocked. But the author brought up the idea that one major thing that would surprise that second time traveler would be the way particularly men dress. In the 50s middle class men wore suits to work, hats, always carried handkerchiefs, etc. Only boys wore shorts, and t-shirts were worn under dress shirts. Nowadays my husband travels for work & his coworkers pack nothing but t's and shorts for their off time. Mind you, they're going to decent restaurants in foreign countries like that.
