Well, there are... a lot of minor differences. Some not as minor.

[ Steve actually struggles for a moment, unsure of how to put the thoughts to words without sounding intolerant and close-minded. It's a somewhat complicated feat. ]

People here wear a lot less clothes than what I'm used to. Women, especially— in my time it's not deemed as acceptable that women should walk around wearing so little. Everyone is also much more open when it comes to public shows of affection. Not just holding hands, but also kissing and hugging, sometimes not all that, uh... innocently.

[ There's a faint pink tint to his cheeks, and he clears his throat. ] There are also couples of men with men, and women with women, who freely engage in similar displays, when it would be deeply frowned upon where I come from. Likely outright forbidden in some places. [ He's quick to add. ] Not that I mind! I don't, not at all. I think people should very well be free to do whatever they want and no one should have any say in it. But... different times, I guess. Things just weren't as... forward, at the point in time I come from.
