[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 256916, member: 13090"] Smiling too much, back in the day, was considered evidence you might not be too bright in yer noggin; possibly even a little "touched". Ever hear the expression "Grinning like an idiot"? There were appropriate times for laughter and smiling but it was not generally considered attractive like it is in modern society. That being the case, people did not smile in photos back then because no one wanted to look foolish, or be thought an idiot, based on their photo. [COLOR=#ffffff].....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
