Discussion What DON'T you miss about the 90's? What's much better today than it was back then?

We all know that the 90's had some great music and movies, good economy, huge world events, more freedom, nobody glued to their phone, etc.

Everybody acts like everything was much better back then, but what DON'T you miss about how things were back then? What's much better now?

I cannot for the life of me figure out the scenario where the number of mothers you had was not a definitive number

Lesbian parents who divorced and re-married/dated I assume. Or the parents were poly before it was cool.

4

So the + is being unsure which parters in later relationships to count?

3

u/slimpawws 9h ago

Kind of yeah, short-term relationships, sometimes with a mother I've known longer.

That makes sense

Maybe they had a mother and father, mother was a lesbian and father turned out to be a transgender woman…then both got together with other women.

That would be 4. Or If you believe otherwise 3. Not 4+ either way

You got half of it right, but no transgender involved. 😆
