It was cool in the '80s and gay in the '90s. Such are trends

Saw a video about that recently, basically skaters called bladers gay so they all quit.

I really enjoyed that, thanks for sharing.

All three of my kids are skating and blading. There's a guy at the park who was over the moon to see them into blading, I didn't really understand why but now I understand his nostalgia. I actually bought a pair too, but I'm not doing the aggressive skating like they are because I'm scared I'll break something.

Pretty sure they called them inlines to make them less faggot-sounding.
