People Are Sharing Pics Of Life 50-100 Years Ago And They Might Put Things In A New Perspective

Ya know, looking at this spunky bad-ass woman, I bet she didn't take any s**t.

Hey, don't poop on the good vibes let's celebrate her first. Evil doesn't deserve our front pages. What a badass!

Yup!! At that age, racism was not hidden but clearly blatant. And that too a WOMAN?? doing a male job? That's bullshit!! /sarcasm

I imagine that she was a beacon of hope for a better world for many.

“ early on, Wallace thought about quitting several times be-cause of security concerns. Like other bus drivers lacking seniority, Wallace worked nights, and more than once, she had to fend off passengers who tried to attack her.” Besides that, she says in this article that reactions were pretty mixed: “I would get cheers from the ladies and stares from the guys.” https://www.thewonderwomenproject.org/blogs/news/mary-wallace-the-first-female-bus-driver-for-chicago-transit-authority-beginning-in-1974/

I'll bet she did too! I grew up in 1960s London, on London Transport buses in the 60s there were no women drivers at all and black people were only allowed to be conductors, not drivers, although that changed fairly quickly. I lived in London till 1980 and I never saw a woman bus driver or taxi driver (both jobs I did myself in Ireland in later years).

Sad but you're probably right

Always someone like you that just will not move on. We can never move forward unless we learn to progress. I would say something about this photo like "she has a beautiful smile. How awesome to have been the first female bus driver!!"

Why do you imagine the worst? By 1974 much had begun to change.

Why do we need gender parity, though? Perhaps fewer women are interested in being professional drivers? If that's the case, parity would be artificial.

They've even got stunning teeth!

I basically make about $6,000-$8,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home. I was amazed how easy it was after I tried it….. ===))> 𝐖­𝐰­𝐰.𝐅­𝐮­𝐥­𝐰­𝐨­𝐫­𝐤.𝐂­𝐨­𝐦

'So happy', until the reality of her plight as a woman in the '50s sets in... I was born in 1951, I KNOW.

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!

I was thinking Betty White.

I thought it looked like marylin monroe a bit

Hillary Clinton was the first thing I thought too! I hope that dress is still in the family!

But we still do this on farms.... what perspective does this bring?

See the black faced pussy with milk all over his face!

Cats are intolerant to the pasteurized process. Thats why straight from the cow milk is better for both cats and humans.

I've found that a little whole milk, or better yet, heavy cream doesn't usually hurt. A tablespoon once a week or so. The extra fat seems to tone down the intolerance (my own theory). I think that's why farm cats could tolerate being teat targets. Try a small amount, a spoonful, diarrhea will occur if they're really intolerant.

Yes, mom always said not to give the cat milk cause itll give em the shites. But barn cats are different because they don't shites in the house. They working for that milk.

Some cats are dangerously intolerant (on extreme cases they could die from the shites), but most aren't. Like Catlady6000 said, try a very small amount first, and wait to see how well they digest it. And like the later and Tobin also said: non-pasteurized whole fat milk is probably a lot better for digestion! I heard it's like that for humans.

They are, but can get used to drinking milk and tolerate the lactose

What a gorgeous face

And she had to hold that smile while waiting while the photographer exposed the glass slides. That’s the reason most people weren’t smiling in those old photos.

Notice how plain and simple it is , not gaudy .

Smiling like it was *Nineteen* Ninety-Four.

So sincere!

My friend thought,

Basically? She is undoubtedly. I don't understand.

Wow, she's so beautiful!
