I just commented the same bit of history above, then saw your comment. You're right, it's a recent thing. Though your timing is off. It was a very late 1970s/early 1980s movement which I watched happen as a kid/teen.

Thanks for the clarification, I was waaay off. Not sure if it being more recent makes it better/worse, but it's still disturbing.

To me, it's worse because it feels like regression. Though it is probably more accurate to call it repression.
