'05 is on people's minds, maybe because today's date is 05-05.
Someone asked the internet, "What's something that's sexy now . . . that wasn't 20 years ago in 2005?" And there's actually an uplifting, body positivity theme.
The most popular responses include:
1. Eyebrows that aren't pencil thin.
2. Lack of a tan... "It used to be almost everyone went to tanning salons, and NOT being tan somehow lowered your attractiveness."
3. Lack of tattoos... in addition to HAVING tattoos.
4. 50-year-olds... "20 years ago, when people turned 50, they looked like they should be on 'Golden Girls'. Today 50 looks like 30."

8. (PG-13) Smaller-chested women . . . as opposed to big, fake jugs.
