The 1960's: a time notable for its racism, sexism, and change. However, homosexuality was off limits, seen as unanimously unethical and abnormal by the general population.
That was until 1966, when people began to acknowledge the existence of this, at the time, wildly outrageous topic. Who was there to thank? Of course, none other than Beatle Paul McCartney, the first mainstream celebrity to proclaim their homosexuality openly to the media.
The world would never be the same.
