None.  I had a classmate in law school who was in her 50s.  She had been a kindergarten teacher for 20+ years before that. One of her former students was in the group of law students a year behind us!

...when high schoolers start referring to you as "sir" and "miss"...\n...when the songs you grew up listening to are referred to as "old school"...\nwhen your favorite cartoons as a child now appear on the Boomerang network...\n...when going to the club on a Saturday evening is replaced with going to hear some smooth jazz at a lounge...\n...when your kids suddenly have opinions and they don't match yours...\n...when the vitamins and minerals you did't give two sh!ts about as a kid are ALL you think about these days (e.g. taking calcium pills, iron pills etc)...\n...when you realize you need to draft a will and testament...\n\nDag. I am old. Sigh...

Left over fashion trend from the 70s, when everything had wide stripes (and ties were wide and hair was big and clothing was tight).  We looked stupid then.  I don't know why teens want to look like we did.

I am extremely confident with myself. I think I am fairly smart because I have an IQ of 120, and never had to study a day in my life. I love my curvy body. I can paint or draw anything. I am good with money. I was privileged enough to get thick wavy hair. I am proud to say that I was one of the rare few to stay a virgin before I ever got married. I  am proud of the job I have. I could go on. How do you feel about yourself? Great I would imagine.

Not just one year but childhood up to the age of 12.  Lived in a small Buckinghamshire village in the 1950's.  Didn't realise it then but we were cocooned in an idyllic carefree environment where we could roam freely with no worries and find out about life naturally.  We had rafts on the brook, learnt to swim in the pond, built trolleys from wood and old pram wheels, built tree houses.  We rode on farm tractors and trailers, made catapults, bows and arrows, pea shooters out of cow parsley.  Found out about relationships life and sex without magazines and Video's.  I was so lucky, it was another world but one I will never forget.

High school for me was rough but fun. I didn't really start coming into my own until late my junior year. I was still a pimply teenager that resembled Beavis. But looks can be decieving. After awhile I took care of myself a lot better and I found myself being the person that people turned to for advice or a quick joke. I got along with just about everybody. Basketball players, nerds, and everybody in between. Though I enjoyed high school, I would not want to go back. Academically, I struggled through but I did graduate.

not an easy answer, I would recommend reading "The Status Seekers" by Vance Packard, or the scaled down version (it is just selections from the book) "American Social Classes in the 1950's", edited by Daniel Horowitz

YES!  I was brought up in the 80s.  It reminds me of good times.  The cheesy music, the bright colored clothes.  I had GREAT 80s hair.  BIG BIG BIG!

Well, I lived through them...but can I remember the 70's?! Hmmm....Say no to war. Peace & Free love. Psychedelic clothing,leisure suits, high heels, mini skirts. Don't trust anyone over 30. Long hair, Afro hair. Awesome muscle cars. Watergate. Men on the moon. It was such a great decade even though it had it's downfalls and the way people treated each other in general was so much more honorable than today.
