Morality and Fashion

According to a non-fictional book I read which I’d rather quote in here:

"Morality is just like Fashion: a New Style every year. And right now a lot of people feel that morality is Superflous in a world where Money and Power are what counts. Virtue is a Luxury only a Poor can Afford." - Seduction of Peter S. by L. Sanders

and the issue on morality is also a never ending discussion comparable to the "chicken-egg issue" but through the phrase mentioned above is the best description yet that i have ever encountered. It is true that we set standards of moral to protect our society but it is also true that it is like fashion it changes to every generation or on as simple as what’s in or out.

what can be deemed as immoral 2 decades ago is now just something as normal as eating a bread. an example of this is frontal nudities on movies. decades ago it would have caused a big controversy since back then it is considered pornogrpahic but now if it is really an integral part of the movie it can be allowed and people would percieve it tastful and artistically done.

Nobody can really tell which is immoral to what it is acceptable, it all goes down to what the society as a whole (meaning the majority of the people) can accept as of the moment. Thanks to our ever evolving minds we continue to struggle on what we believe in giving a right balance on our society. We can never stay on the safe side forever without risk we will stay stagnant and will never grow in all aspects. So for me morality is like the fashion industry today you're hot and tomorrow will just be a thing of the past.
