Our Shameful History

The United States of America is the greatest country on god's green earth. We are the land of the free and the home of the brave. But even we have shameful moments in our past. The woman pictured below reminds us of three of our worst sins. Until the passage of the 13th Amendment, slavery was legal in this country. Until 1920, we did not allow women the right to vote. And as recently as the 1980s, it was considered acceptable to wear leg warmers in the gym. Thankfully we have evolved and grown as a people.

Beginning today, the Fitness Fashion Police will present Flashback Fridays, in which we will highlight other fashion fads that we hope never make a comeback.
