Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.
Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Ignorance and/or tradition are not excuses for continuing bad behavior, though.
The “acceptable” behaviors were actually wrong then just like they are now. Getting away with something bad doesn’t make it not bad.
Being forgiven isn’t the same as getting permission. I think we can forgive people for their past bad behavior in light of the fact that it was accepted at the time. Especially if they acknowledge it’s wrong and don’t continue to do it.
