At the time I was born in the late 80s, the Western world was still very traditional and stable. Men were expected to be masculine, and women were expected to be feminine. There were gender standards to uphold, and they were taken seriously by both sexes. Inter-racial relationships were stigmatized, homosexuality was taboo, and transexualism was a vile obscenity. (And rightly so)

But by the time I was a child in the 90s, things had already begun changing. A social change was underway. Shows like Sex and the City or Ally McBeal encouraged females to become promiscous career women. Shows like Will and Grace encouraged people to tolerate homosexuals. In retrospect, it is clear that the Western world was being targeted by social engineering.

An example that comes to mind here is the gay characters being introduced into sitcoms in the 90's. Will and Grace is prime example.

That wasn't all. Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer was revealed to be a lesbian. Ross from Friends was originally intended to be gay. Then there was that episode from Jerry Seinfeld, where they reinforced the message about homosexuals: ''Not that theres anything wrong with that.''
