      And clothing that lasts for more than at least one year, sheesh!

      But were people allowed to say “bitch” back then? Truly we have advanced in so many ways!:-)

        The best is not having to dress up for work. I had a couple of years of that and then transitioned to jeans/sweats/shorts and t-shirt for the past 35 years. That sucked and thank goodness pantyhose is or less gone.

        I still feel funny about calling my female dog a bitch. But not when I call a person a bitch. I use it most in phrases like “they’re just going to bitch about it”

            I was on the tail end of kids still getting spanked or worse (last of the gen Xers).

            My cousins still had a paddle with holes in it that made a terrible whistling sound before it got you. Their dad was a southerner though was always the excuse.
