We missed out on all the bisexual girls! |
|
Man you Y'ers have no idea how good you got it...
All of us X-ers missed out on X, Raves, thongs, and bisexuality...

6. Boomers did too...and we had crappy stuff |
|
fountain pens, ink wells, big clunky bikes,big clunky cars, transistor radios the size of breadboxes,black & white TVs..
but then we did have "the Summer of Love" and all that great music:)
and we sure pissed off a lot of old fogies:)

The Beatles, Hendrix, The Doors...etc
We at least had the Seattle Sound - but that was much too short lived.
But I want the sex crazed porn quality sex dammit!

63. yup all that foolish, unaware and unprotected sex |
|
yup. Good idea for we boomers! Drunk, stoned off our asses and not remembering what had happened the night before! Hooray. (not sure things were radically different for the xs and ys, except that they knew it was more risky!)
Sarcasm on. ;)
We did get to see punk the first time around, though. (late boomer here)

Of course I'm one of those kids in thier twenties that the thread originator seems to think are getting really good drugs and porn quality sex at parties (no, no and no) so I ought to know that the fun gets overhyped.

The trick is to stay in good physical shape. Too many of us get out of shape once we leave high school, and it screws our sex lives. "Porn quality" sex is a reality but requires that you be in great physical shape.

31. Technically, they say the Baby Boom was until '64 |
|
and then Gen X started in '65. I was born in '66, and I don't feel like I quite fit in w/ Gen X, but I'm definitely not a Baby Boomer either. We mid-sixties babies are sort of a lost generation ...

I was also born in 1966, and don't feel like I fit with Gen X. A little too old for Gen X, and too young for Boomers.

51. yes, but with more of a pornish quality. |
|
gen x female bisexuality was of a more puritan nature. female bisexuality became more skanky after 1975.
read your history books.
now go away.

I've seen and had plenty of X, Raves, thongs, and bisexuality.
Okay, not so much on the Raves and Thongs, thankfully.
But Bisexuality and X? Sure, I'm from Chicago after all :D

:evilgrin:
And I tried E, finally, at the age of 37...didn't really care for it.
Thongs: pretty much all I own. ;)
Raves I missed, though, yes. But I had the Rocky Horror Picture Show, which was good enough for me. :D
