Get Used To It: Technology Changes Social Norms
“It’s appalling,” said an elderly aunt, “to see how they use
telephones nowadays. Last night Mary, who was dressing,
answered the telephone in her room. And it was a man
calling her up. The two of them stood talking to one
another just as if they were entirely dressed and had
stopped for a little chat on the street! I tell you this
generation is too much for me.”
Telephony magazine (1903)
