It is social evolution and progressives in the US are leading the charge on the left. Europe has always been way ahead of us back to the beginning when they were living in stone houses with glass windows and gas lanterns on cobblestone streets while people here were living in shacks.
I imagine those stone houses tend to be nice cool places most of the time.
They don't have a lot of AC so when the heat wave came in 2003, they were caught flat-footed. Couldn't just run to Home Depot for an air conditioner.
Moral of the story, get a ground floor apartment for a summer stay ?
One of the things I'd like to see is a European biomass heating operation.
A soil science instructor told me that's a real thing in Europe, they use the same kind of heating as causes hay fires, to heat pipes for plumbing and heating.
It would need to be semi-automated or somebody's going to be doing a huge amount of shovelling.
I think one of the interesting contrasts in Europe right now is the topless women vs. the refugees with the swimming robes.
I'm sure some of those refugees have nice bods, they just choose to keep them covered up.
When you say

What do you mean ? Acceptance of the whole Trans thing ?
