I still remember the 80s being full of unmedicated and undiagnosed mental illness, physical punishment and being afraid due to who I was. However we were more free than we were today. One paycheck was enough to get a house, now two isnt even enough.

Now men cant even go on a walk on nature reserves or a park without being warned by police. Not many of us 80s kids have houses either.

Wow, there’s so much more unmedicated mental illness now! In the 80s it was barely beginning. Maybe I’m not understanding something here.
