Blatant sexuality of swing dancing

As a community, I believe that certain taboos and negative attitudes toward sexuality have slowly been broken down in our country. It has been a slow progression and there are certain eras that can be pointed out as turning points for changes in societal attitudes towards sex. The swing era qualifies as one of these times, not as important as the sexual revolution of the late sixties and early seventies, but still closely related to music as a means for wholesale change.
