Talk:Gay Nineties

message: Should there be a merge with the 1890s article?  Both of these are very short, and could probably use the expansion.  Just make the "Gay Nineties" a subject heading within the 1890s article. JohnnyRush10 22:20, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Merge

message: There should be something about stereotypical gay '90's attire, from the point of view of the mid 20th-century at least (e.g. straw boater hats, striped shirts with arm garters, and handlebar mustaches for men, dance hall outfits for women).  Barbershop quartets formerly sometimes kind of played on gay 90's stereotypes (don't know whether they still do...). AnonMoos (talk) 14:53, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: TV Tropes

message: The middle sentence of the second paragraph in the lead section reads like this:
   An economic crisis developed in the beginning of the decade because of high tariffs and the introduction of low-valued silver coinage to counter growing inflation.[3]
However the footnote points to a broken link that looks like it was originally some video not specifically about economics.
Now the sentence may very well be true, or maybe not.  But i think it would merit an updated link, hopefully to a better source (something maybe more about historical econometrics).  And a cross reference to other explanatory articles would also help.
(After all, there were high tariffs throughout most of the 19th century, coupled with enormous economic growth in non-war time.)
