Ummm refined polite times? Maam, if you grew up in the 60's and below, you could freely call people of color names, those that are homosexual names, Native Americans got called names, Chinese, mexicans etc.
They weren't any more refined or polite then today.
If a girl was found to be sleeping about, you could freely make aspersions on her character.
Lets not forget the the troubles of The Great Depression.
