1. You will need to put on clothes again to leave the house.

2. Not it is not normal to see men dressed as women, and vice versa

3. You don't need to guess the nationality of all those around you.

4. Sunrise will indicate the start of a new day, rather than the end of the previous.

5. You probably no longer party with people of all ages.
