Nuns live under vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience so it's not uncommon for us to see them always prim and proper. As someone who went to a Catholic school, I'd often see them with their hands tucked neatly in their habits.
Love is love and that's how it's been since the dawn of man. However, navigating social dynamics in the past was way more difficult than today. Same-sex relationships had been seen as a sin, repressed through law enforcement and judicial mechanisms, and even condemned with death penalties. Luckily, we now live in a time where gay and lesbian couples can legally marry. And to celebrate the increased well-being within these communities, a former priest who goes by the name Nathan Monk has compiled a series of vintage pics, showing how same-sex couples looked back in the day.

Kids today might find this hard to believe, but there really was a period in time when smartphones didn't exist. But how did they entertain themselves?. How did they survive without instant and constant access to hilarious videos of cats being cats and people failing at stuff?

Children in old photos show us the similarities and differences between their time and ours. The differences will make you reflect on what their lives must have been like; we might notice that children were dressed just like adults, and if maybe more was expected of them. But the similarities will bring a smile to your face: a smile that is mirrored on the faces of children at play, often with friends, a favorite toy, or a pet.
