Viimeaikoina erin\u00e4isten vaalien ja muiden sattumien johdosta on kaveri- ja tuttavapiiriss\u00e4 keskusteltu siit\u00e4, miten vintage-harrastajiin suhtaudutaan oman l\u00e4hipiirin ulkopuolella. Esiin on nostettu se ik\u00e4v\u00e4 piirre, ett\u00e4 jotkut jotka eiv\u00e4t tunne vintageharrastusta, ajattelevat vintagen ulottuvan ihmisten ideologiaan ja asenteisiin asti. Kuvitellaan ett\u00e4 jos pukeutuu vaikkapa 50-luvun vaatteisiin, my\u00f6s ajattelee kuin ahdasmielinen 50-luvun ihminen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

V\u00e4\u00e4rin!<\/strong> Vaikka ihailee menneiden aikojen estetiikkaa, fanittaa vanhaa musiikkia ja arvostaa vuosikymmeni\u00e4 sitten tehtyjen esineiden laatua ja kauneutta, on naurettavaa kuvitella, ett\u00e4 jokainen vintage-harrastaja seuraisi my\u00f6s menneiden vuosikymmenten v\u00e4lj\u00e4htyneit\u00e4 ja tunkkaisia asenteita. P\u00e4invastoin. Yst\u00e4v\u00e4ni vintageharrastuksen piiriss\u00e4 ovat varsin liberaaleja ideologioiltaan. He puolustavat ihmisoikeuksia ja tasa-arvoa. Kannustavat aktiivisesti muita ihmisi\u00e4 toimimaan v\u00e4hemmist\u00f6jen hyv\u00e4ksi ja korjaamaan ep\u00e4kohtia ja ep\u00e4tasa-arvoa. He suojelevat omalla toiminnallaan el\u00e4imi\u00e4, luontoa ja heikommassa asemassa olevia. Ja tottakai vintage-harrastajiinkin kuuluu my\u00f6s paljon erilaisten v\u00e4hemmist\u00f6jen edustajia, vammaisia, rodullistettuja, seksuaali- ja sukupuoliv\u00e4hemmist\u00f6jen edustajia jne, aivan kuten mihin tahansa muuhunkin yhteis\u00f6\u00f6n. Usein vintage-esineiden suosiminen liittyy kulutuksen v\u00e4hent\u00e4miseen ja historia-harrastus taas auttaa ymm\u00e4rt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n menneit\u00e4 tapahtumia ja ett\u00e4 ne ajat ovat hyv\u00e4st\u00e4 syyst\u00e4 muuttuneet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

T\u00e4ss\u00e4 ei ik\u00e4v\u00e4 kyll\u00e4 kuitenkaan ole koko totuus. Valitettavasti joihinkin harrastuspiireihin on liittynyt porukoita, jotka yritt\u00e4v\u00e4t tuoda omia ahtaita n\u00e4kemyksi\u00e4\u00e4n esiin vintagen tai historiaharrastuksen varjolla. Heille se on vain v\u00e4line oman vihamielisen agendansa levitt\u00e4miseen. N\u00e4m\u00e4 ihmisoikeuksista ja usein laeistakin piittaamattomat ryhm\u00e4t ovat usein valitettavan \u00e4\u00e4nekk\u00e4it\u00e4, ja toimillaan tahraavat kaikkien vintage-harrastajien maineen. \u00c4l\u00e4 anna sen tapahtua!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Min\u00e4 harrastan vintagea ennen kaikkea esteettisest\u00e4, ymp\u00e4rist\u00f6llisest\u00e4 ja laadullisesta aspektista. Pid\u00e4n vanhojen esineiden ja vaatteiden estetiikasta, uniikkiudesta ja muotoilusta. Nautin menneiden aikojen taiteesta ja luotan laatuun, joka kest\u00e4\u00e4 viel\u00e4 vuosikymmenten j\u00e4lkeenkin. Luonteeltani olen kuitenkin eettisi\u00e4, humaaneja ja luontoa kunnioittavia arvoja kannattava liberaali ja toivon ett\u00e4 kukaan tutuista ja yst\u00e4vist\u00e4ni ei kuvittele mit\u00e4\u00e4n muuta. Vaatteet eiv\u00e4t ole mun aatteet!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to recent elections and other events, there has been lots of conversations about how people outside our close circles react to vintage-wearers. People have been talking about the fact that those who don’t really know vintage enthusiasts, might sometimes think that “vintage” goes as far as their ethics and ideals. Some people think that if you wear 50’s outfit, you also think like 50’s close-minded people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrong!<\/strong> Even though person might admire aesthetics, music, quality and beauty of things from past eras, it is ridiculous to think that they also admire the close-minded, dusty ideals of times gone by. Quite the opposite. My vintage enthusiast friends are very liberal. They support human rights and equality on all aspects. They encourage others to support minorities and to fix grievances and solve problems. They protect animals, nature and those who are oppressed. And of course there are minority members among vintage enthusiasts too, disabled people, people of colour, members of sexual minorities etc, just like in any community would. Using vintage items is often related to minimizing consumerism and history hobby helps to understand events gone past and why times have changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately this is not the whole truth though. Sadly some hobby groups have encountered some people who are trying to spread their narrow and close-minded ideals. To them vintage and living history are just means to introduce their own agenda of hatred to other people. These small groups of people who don’t care about human rights and sometimes even laws, are unfortunately often very pushy and loud and staining the reputation of vintage enthusiasts. Do not let that happen!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love vintage mainly for aesthetical, environmental and quality aspects. I like the design and the uniqueness. I enjoy the art of past eras and trust the quality, which is lasting past decades and decades. I am liberal supporting ethical, humane and environmental values and I hope that none of my friends or acquaintances think otherwise. Clothes are not my ideals!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
