Bill has a point as well, though I think those of earlier generations took a more pragmatic view of safety. Look at the aforementioned barber shop. I'm sure that in the old days, lots of people got shaved with the same razor and maybe brush (though if you were a regular, you had your own shaving mug). I don't think there was an epidemic of people dying as a result of going to barber shops. Similarly, you can cut yourself with a straight razor, but has anyone here ever done any serious damage to themselves? Anything that would do more than /maybe/ leave a scar?
So, maybe we've all just become so milquetoast as a result of modern culture?
