The old Geezers 70's and 80's Megathread
The Suzzane Somers thread got me thinking about a conversation I was having with one of my friends about how awesome it was to be alive in the 70s and 80s. You try telling younger generations about it but it’s impossible. For starters testosterone levels were WAY, WAY higher back then. There were very few girly men like we have so many of today. Much higher levels of T and no cell phones had a huge impact on your social/sex life. Everybody was fing everybody and it was awesome. Nobody was up in your business. Everyone knew what they were and what bathroom to use. Fat people were few and far between. Teenage years were amazing. Cruising every Friday night with people bringing out all their bad rides and the girls all sexied up. Kegers every friggen weekend. The music was so much better too. Still remember going to Van Halen’s first tour. It didn’t cost anything to see those bands back then. As a young adult the party for me just continued as I went into health clubs. Once again everybody was doing everybody. The parties after we closed the club, just wow. When I moved to the bay area from Florida it just continued. I remember when the Exotic Erotic ball was a company function and we took 10 limos to the city filled with teenage girls in their sexiest lingerie. Can you imagine that happening today? Sadly that way of life ended with Anita Hill and the invention of the smart phone amongst other things. I will be forever grateful to god for being able to grow up during that time. I feel so bad for the kids coming up today, there’s just no comparison.

So what do you say old geezers, give me a walk down memory lane.

Life was a whole lot simpler and better... No school shootings, no living your teenage life for likes, no 50% of kids being on anti-depressants and 20% confused about their gender... Life was a whole lot better with Evil Knievel and rotary dial phones...

No school shootings? What alternate reality were you living in?

And I’m sorry to tell you but those people existed….they just couldn’t be open about it. You know….because most people would beat the shit out of them.

Yea, we threw the word bundle of sticks around pretty loosely. And not just kidding your buddy. Anybody, anywhere at any time, who did anything remotely feminine, was labeled. Immediately and forever.

Unless it happened in the football/wrestling locker room. (Then it was just good fun.)

School shootings in the 70's & 80's absolutely occurred. Most of them were more targeted vs the mass shootings we are now used to (unfortunately) seeing/hearing about.

The one closest to me never made the national news. Girl breaks up with guy. Guy comes to school, says “it’s me or nobody” blasted her in the parking lot.

From my recollection - it was more about the post office.........that's how/when "going postal" was born.

Yes, no school shootings, despite many kids bringing their hunting guns in their cars to school...

Sure those people existed, and many were bullied, but to deny there is an issue today with the growing percentages is intellectually dishonest.

It is clear from Littman’s study that the rise of rapid-onset gender dysphoria, which seems to predominantly involve natal females, points to a complex web of social pressures, changing cultural norms, and new modes of distress and coping that warrant further investigation. For parents, educators, and clinicians alike, caution is warranted in dealing with this growing phenomenon.

Pretty disingenuous to only show shootings with more than 4 deaths. A school shooting is a school shooting.

Most everyone in my high school had a shotgun and rifle in their vehicles. I was no exception. We also had our buck knives on our belts. If we had a beef with someone, we settled it with our fists. The thought of stabbing or shooting someone never crossed our minds. We definitely live in different times when a first grader can get suspended for drawing a gun...

In the 70's and 80's people that watched soccer were referred to as foreigners.
