30 things that should be more socially acceptable

At the surface level, we live in a modern, progressive age, ungoverned by the pointless rules and traditions of the past. Women can drink pints, men can wear eyeliner, and living in a van that has a bed and a hotplate is a coveted lifestyle.

If you see a beautiful woman on the street who clearly isn't wearing a bra, do you secretly judge her and assume she's trying to look sexy? These are things we need to free ourselves from.

Fairies, elves, gnomes, and goblins: Little tricksters from around the world

For thousands of years, ideas of small and mystical humanoid creatures that weave in and out of our world (and theirs) have been prominent in the mythos and folk religions of cultures around the world.
