1950s

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.

Men weren't afraid to express their femininity in the 50s

Tampons were invented in the 1950s

Pogo sticks became the main method of transportation, as seen here in a typical American family seeing their father off for work.

1950s is the period in time between January 31st 1949 and yesterday. It was an era of cultural diversity, peace around the world, and a vast increase in sexually transmitted diseases.

Prominent people of the time were Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, Charlton Heston and Richard Simmons.

People were unconcerned with politics in this era, and there was no President of the USA during the 1950s. In Europe people were still celebrating the post war era and there was a feeling of freedom and prosperity even amongst homeless people and idiots. In particular, teenagers living above subsistence level had generally not realised that they could be irritating to all other age groups without making much effort. Meanwhile, adults believed that the commercialisation of broadcast media would actually broaden the choice available to viewers and listeners. Children, locomotives and aeroplanes still made interesting noises in the 1950's, such that they could be distinguished from one another by their sound and were worth listening dave is cool
