The mid-20th century was a time of almost Victorian modesty.


I came across the bikini photos of the Miss Universe Contestants in 1964 and when I compared them to what obtains now I wonder if we are progressing or regressing.


Miss Nigeria 1964, Edna Park was our very first representative to an international beauty contest and she looked so different from what our idea of beauty now is..


See photos below.

Regression and progression are two relative terms. it depends on which side of the divide you stand.

Meanwhile, it's amazing how Nigerian representative decides to honour her countries culture with her attire or perhaps, that's what is obtained there.

Wow see change. + why cant they start a traditional moment at the Miss World Level so beauty queens can wear their country's traditional attire.

It might sound stupid to you but its just my own opinion

Why You Must Invest Money If You Want To Succeed As Blogger,
As a bloggers it is not everything that you can do by yourself, it is just like every other business , there are so many task that are necessary and you ought to have done them, but due to lack expertise you cannot accomplish them.
You cannot be a jack of all trade, they say is a master of known, a blogger is a content creator, you are just to create content that interest your readers that’s all, though some minor seo are also necessary, but to succeed as a blogger you need to devote your whole time to writing,, and any other task you want , then you seek the assistance of others or pay for it.
It may sound somehow, but the reality is that time you will spend , the error and mistake you may will make may harm your entire blogging business continue reading

Re: Miss Universe 1964 Bikini Photo And Compare Them To Today's Photos by calabaman(m): 4:05pm On Oct 30, 2015
in this era,

near nudity = epitome of beauty and sexiness.

in d past,

nudity= thrashy and waywardness.

TELL ME, ARE WE TRULY PROGRESSING OR REGRESSING?

We associate beauty with 'uncladness' nowadays. No wonder pegeants go unclad this days. Well, it's still being fair now ... In a matter of decades, they'd begin to bear it all. Let's wait and see!
