i was born in the wrong time period. is it normal to think that?

I was born in 1998, and I feel as though i was born in the worst generation so far. I wish i was born in the 40's so i could have grown up in the 50's and 60's. I hate everything about this time period. Is this normal?

    Best time period for me is the late 80's and the 90's.When everyone was chilled and life was simple.

      Agreed the 70s were scary and so were the 60s i don't know if i'd want to live back then, well other than for the fact that it was alot easier to move up classes in the economy back then, the early 90s and late 80s were awesome.

    So ...... no internet? No mobile phones? No Ipads? No IIN? I was born in the 40's and believe me the 50's and 60's were bery boring until the late 60's ..

    Anyway, what's the point in hating something you can't change?

      Not everyone think it was boring back then. Some people say that 40's and 50's were the best. Life was simpler with less distraction, pollution, etc.

        Well I was alive back then and I remember the 50's very well: issues such as abortion, women's rights, domestic violence, gay rights, child sexual abuse, racism were rarely if ever acknowledged and there is far more action against pollution now than there was then.

        However, if you want to hold on to romantic nostalgia for an era you never knew I won't try any more to try & convince you you're wrong

    Yep! The best decades were the 50 60 70 and maybe the early 80. It's gone to hell since then. IMO.

    Well ya know.. The 40s and 50s kinda sucked if you aren't a white straight male or someone who cares about hygiene and healthcare. It was also terrible with human right's issues. On the bright side, the clothes were pretty I guess!

    in my era, girls wouldn t have sex with a boy unless they were nearly married. i would love to live in this era whereas many girls think of sex as simply a physical activity, like going to the gym for a workout. you guys don t know how great you have it today. enjoy it.

    Lots of people feel this way, it is because we romanticize the past and don't have to feel the pain that those eras dealt with.

    My sister and I feel that we were born in the wrong era. Whatever life was like in the 40's and 50's we wish we were apart of it (at least some aspect of it). I was wondering if genetics plays a part in this mild euphoric desire.

    I do *not* want to be born in the 40s. I would have to wait my entire life just to get decent electronics. Oh, and holy shiite, I remember the year you were born. I was 10. Ask me what it was like.

    You want to live in the times when every guy was a sexist asshole and every female felt their duty was in the home doing housework??

    Maybe look up some of those yesteryear vids and see for yourself, I don't think I could last a day there if I overheard some guy say, 'SHE better have my damn tea ready!', or some girl say, 'I know he loves me, he bought me a brand new washer!' I'd be slapping everyone I see.

    Those days of lawful rape and ignorance are thankfully GONE
    Agree the 80's were the best though :)

      Nope but my bisexual goth ass loved the shit out of the mid-late 90s and banking on both terrorizing and bullying and belittling you again after you got a good 4-5 months in at age 8... you all had to watch a dude go from the Krow to looking likr a passable goth chicks and I was hotter than any tranny then and STILL am dominant as fuck.

      Yeah, in my school when Mathew Shepard died, I had just gotten my judo privileges back and couldn't protest because westboro baptist church protested a manson show before that funeral when they cop protexctionandscremed your god is dead. Was in 2 bi trad relationships before 1997... my ass got to get followed by an explosion of angsty posers that ignored and wrote ... so sad...

      No dignity... Matthew Shepard was a team up by one of us and one of yours You came at e early and Iwas at the top of it all when I was younger and we weren't bi to our women when you losers had them with the fake AIDS shit and beast to find fag or degeberate swutch hitter

      If you're a male you must have very little experience with females. Equality and feminism have contributed to the overall breakdown of countless family units across America.

      Women certainly didn't have it terrible during those times. What would you prefer? Having them march off to Europe to fight the Nazi's? That would have gone over well.

      People are more miserable than ever because gender roles have been all screwed up with both people working and no one keeping up a home to actually come home to.

      I'd say you were trolling but you really believe everything you typed.

        I actually DO understand your old fashioned views on how feminism has hurt the western world, I have read the arguments about this.
        But obviously you are quite wrong about gender equality within society and since you replied to a very simple point of mine (especially when I included lawful rape of the past), I can only assume your mind is delusional and not with the times.

        Since I don't feel a debate is either allowed or even warranted here, let me just state, what I wrote I agree with, what you wrote was horror, and I'm amazed such an old fashioned viewpoint of yours is on such a youthful and free minded site as this.

          There was good and bad. I don't really agree with Mr.Penis, but he does make a valid point that gender equality hasn't been sunshine and roses for everyone, not even all women, so I wouldn't call his post "horror".

            I feel we would need a modern (ideally female activist or gender equality activist) person to reply, noting the concerns of and experiences of olden days women's rights (in particular).

            It could easily be seen that an older lady or 'gentleman' formerly of this era, may argue in favor of gender roles and how the times were 'better' back then, BUT I don't feel this is the modern understanding of the harsh treatment of women (in particular) from both men and society laws is anything but horrible place to be in.

            On top of this, I am not aware of too many people these days who do not agree with equality of the sexes including the LGBT movement other than religious fanatics and thankfully they don't count in real law anymore.

            Is that reasonable?

              How does one define "gender equality" when there are so many differences between the genders both in behavior and in attitudes towards approaching whatever life happens to throw at you?

              Lawful rape certainly isn't something I would condone, neither is a woman's ability to call the cops after sex claiming rape occurred just because the guy decided a girl wasn't what he wanted to date or he just wanted sex. (Yup, I've SEEN it happen).

              I'm sorry, but you have a very ignorant viewpoint as to how women actually behave in society. Giving indulgences to frenetic emotions and behaviors of any given woman is just ridiculous to do.

              The modern woman wants "equality" how she defines in that given moment which is not something that can be done. It's completely unrealistic.

    If you were born in the 40's you would have been born into another whole world of problems. If you were born between 1939-1945 you would have been born during world war 2. I certainly would not have wanted to be born during that time...

    I am 26 and our generation aint much better. I do not think it has to do with certain generations. I kind of think that it is the world as a whole that is trudging down the wrong path....and it has been going down a nasty little direction for a long while now. That is just my opinion though and I really support painal and all the things that painal offers.
