It was a better time, a better age. Now we live an indecent era.

The culture was better, the technology was cooler, and the women were better.

Post pics and reminisce about the 1920s

They looked like skinnyfat, stumpy dogs desu. Best period for models/actresses was probably the 40s-60s. I mean, there's just no comparing beauties like Vivien Leigh, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, and Lauren Bacall to the forgettable faces of the 20s.

You're right, Grace Kelly was beautiful.

The 1920s saw the beginnings of modern degeneracy. There's a reason why the Nazis banned everything related to the period. The pre-WW1 years was the age to live in.

True, but the technology was reaching new heights, and if I were time travelling I would go back to the 1920s first as a way to at least get adjusted back to progress onto older times.

Why is it that so few women look like Hollywood models and actresses from the 20s? Was it just the makeup and lighting they used? I don't get it.

Women now wear too much makeup, or are just infected with liberal feminism. Women respected men, and everyone was just a lot classier. Everyone wore better clothing, even poor people in suits and dresses. Now, they don't care about their appearance

But I don't think I've ever seen a women with the facial structure and beauty of women in the 20s. It must have been the lighting they used back that or something. Women look entirely different now.

Maybe it had something to do with WW1 and 2. Or maybe a great deal of those Hollywood celebrities didn't have children. I'm sure there's an explanation.

>>55525608
The twenties were degenerate as fuck, and fueled by the kike banks. Then the market came crashing down, and they made a killing off it.
>>
>>55528102
>Why is it that so few women look like Hollywood models and actresses from the 20s?
It's really the total opposite..so many women have those generic baby faces and bodies. They just don't have the haircut and bright red lipstick. Take >>55527799 for example. This body is completely unremarkable nowadays, but back then it was impressive enough to win her the miss america pageant. I know plenty of women with chicken legs, 27" waists and small tits. They can't become models let alone miss anything because standards are way higher now.

If you're wondering why there aren't many models and actresses who look like that, well, I'd say it's because globalization and urbanization have given people access to a greater variety of women and therefore refined beauty standards somewhat. I could go to met art or something and find dozens girls who outmatch all of the flappers here.

>>55528395
>Women now wear too much makeup
You realize the women in your pictures are wearing a lot of makeup, more than the average women goes out in, right? And it's pretty clownish to boot.

>>55528459
Everything past this point is millennial I guess.
>>
>>55528731
Yes.
Actresses legitimately look more masculine now.
How much of that is due to shifting preferences and how much of that is due to hormone contamination I don't know but it's a legitimate phenomenon.
>>
>>55528731
It's makeup.

You'd be amazed at what makeup can achieve.
>>
>Roaring twenties

>>55529043
I'd say the biggest influence is fags openly running Hollywood and the fashion industry. Even the old Jew media used to prefer feminine actresses but now it's all androgynous by design

>ugly asian dude turns into ugly asian bitch

lol ok

people were more attractive in the 80's, not only women, but men too

we simply allowed the inferior, ugly people to reproduce out of control and controlled the birth of good looking and beautiful people

my mother was a 10/10 in her younger years, tall, green eyes and black hair, her parents had 2 children who became successfull and intelligent

My father is an ugly motherfucker which is also dumb as fuck, he didn't even know his dad for most of his life, he was raised with 8 other children

The fact is that everytime I see an ugly motherfucker he/she had a thousand siblings, people were really good looking in the 20s, 30s...60s even in the 80s. But it went downhill from there
>>
>>55528731
inb4 tumlr pls go

The women seem more "full" figured back then. The "desirable woman" has gradually become skinnier, with more emphasis on their boobs/butt being big rather than being in proportion with the rest of their body. In my opinion, women are most attractive when they look like >>55527092 or >>55527799 (checked).

I believe photoshop might also contribute to this.

My first love.
Some people may sneer at Moroder's 80s edition of Metropolis but it's the one I saw as a child and it permanently influenced my ideals and love of 1920s aesthetics. So I can't help but have a soft spot for it in my heart.

You're saying that globally there's been a complete decline in beauty? Because that's fucking retarded.

Standards of beauty change through the decades. Media depictions of beauty are constantly shifting. The biggest change since the 1920s is that everyone got fat as fuck, but the average white woman at a healthy weight with curled hair and heavy makeup would look pretty similar to 1920s white women.

Look at these average women here. None of them are particularly attractive. The most striking thing is that their hair is styled different than modern trends. One thing to keep in mind is that enduring high quality photos of women are generally photos of models or actresses, and of course they're beautiful.

Your dad being an ugly fuck is just your own retarded family.
