Never sure what to make of applying modern sensibilities to the past
Some things are wrong and you cant defend them by saying "well it was a different time", but where do you stop.
But i am sure that words/songs/movies/ideals that we hold as being correct will be perceived differently in future.
Not sure what the answer is, but not sure i always feel comfortable with redefining the past based on our ideals of today.
