The quaint old Danish custom of presenting a mostly used roll of toilet paper to your beloved has evolved over time. Nowadays, generous “billionaires” toss entire rolls of paper towels to the grateful groveling masses. “You’ve come a long way, baby !”

/// Ewald handed Arendse a letter.
He was shy; (it’s the day he first met her).
From afar he’d admired
her, and now he desired
to concoct a long-term plan to get her.
/// Yet, the ruse he would choose to employ
to meet Arendse brought him no joy.
He was mortified that
she tossed coins in his hat.
She’d assumed he’s a messenger boy.

In olden days, a glimpse of a female’s stocking
Was looked on as something extremely shocking
But for as for men’s clothes, Lord knows anything goes
Good taste in acceptable female public attire
Left very little for males to rudely admire
Until the honeymoon suite curtains do close —
Then EVERYTHING goes …

I can’t quite make out what object is on the floor next to the young man’s foot. Is it his hat or a bedpan?
