Being a flop changed my life. The world is not my oyster, I am glowing. I walked into a pole this morning. There's very little I wouldn't do for $1,000

Just a note in regards to Jim McCartney's abuse of Paul.

There is something we need to be mindful of when it comes to contextualising behaviour from those in previous generations. There is a tendency to say "well that's how it was then" "parents could hit kids then" "it was acceptable at the time"

Well yes lots of things were acceptable in the 1950s that aren't now, that doesn't make them any less harmful to those who were on the receiving end.

The need to contextualise always favours perpetrators of abuse, racism, misogyny etc It's always about us finding ways to tell ourselves that the people who did these bad things weren't actually bad people. When what we should be focusing on is how their behaviour, no matter how socially accepted at the time, impacted their victims.

Also in regards to Jim McCartney's abusive behaviour, yes the practice of corporal punishment/domestic abuse was viewed as "a man's right" in the 1950s but inspite of this there is no documented evidence that any of the other 3 Beatles suffered it as Paul did. When members of the extended McCartney family were interviewed they adamantly denied that Jim practiced it or laid a hand on either of the boys. Yet both Jim, Mike and Paul testify otherwise. The denial from the family hints at some level of, if not shame, then a desire to "protect" Jim's reputation, but these were interviews conducted during the "socially accepted" days. So why the denial from the family what were they protecting?

The beauty of tumblr is that some people here think that cigarettes get you high and drinking once a week makes you an alcoholic, while others here started smoking at 13 and wouldn't even consider ketamine a drug because everyone does it. And both of them are on tumblr blogging about TV shows from 2005.
