[QUOTE="Malmuria, post: 8319813, member: 7030755"] In a statement that will surprise no one, American culture has changed a lot over the past 50 years. We can see, across different media and genres (film; tv; comedy; etc) that things that were broadly acceptable in 1971 are really not acceptable today. I mean, in 1971 same-sex intercourse was illegal in all states except Illinois and Connecticut. And, being that we are, you know, people, who have lived through some or all of this time period, we can attest to these changing attitudes. However, when we make such obvious claims in the context of dnd, we must be sure to include a #notallearlygamers disclaimer, lest we offend anyone who feels personally called out by what is, in fact, a general statement about cultural norms in the US context. For how can we expect anyone to be an ally unless they are personally assured that we are not talking about them in particular. </sarcasm> [/QUOTE]
