What social taboos that exist today do you think will not be around in 100 years?

I was reading a book on social life of the upper-middle class and new rich of the American 1920s and realized so many things we now do proudly were considered socially taboo back then. This was especially the case for clothing, makeup, women in certain public spaces, etc. What do you think will be different in the 2120s? Or maybe even the next 50 years?

Not in the United States, not even in 100 years. Anywhere else: Maybe.

It's already legal in several parts of the US

links to those places and the statues that support that claim?

At least colorado, Kansas, New Mexico and Wyoming by court.

And quite a lot if european countries (some only at beaches and pools etc.)

Lots of states also are very ambiguous with their laws or don’t actively prosecute them. In any way: It’s s a stupid law and no one is hurt by topless or even nude people in the streets. I don’t find it appealing for myself but if others like it, let them have it.

Austin, not sure about the rest of Texas. Apparently the logic was, if men can go topless, why not women?
