Freaks movie

I thought that the movie about "freaks" was very interesting and pretty revolutionary for the time. I never imagined that sex would be a widely accepted issue that people could discuss in movies..and especially between "freaks". I think that the idea of what is normal is something that has changed a great deal since this time. I believe that people that were once seen as freaks are more accepted than during the 30's but its important to understand that equality has not been reached between the two sides. People considered normal still look down upon some of the people not considered normal. Even feeling pity for someone who is not normal is just as bad as being mean to them. Hopefully people can one day simply see a person for who they are and not for what they look like. Looks can be deceiving..
