Still would be a heavy stigma if a woman was pregnant and not married.
If you say no don't ever bitch about black women giving birth to bastard kids 80% of the time

I enjoyed growing up then, but was only involved with kid stuff.

I don't get it either.
Next someone will say I'm just a DAMN LIBRUL for my thoughts
Even though I'm far from it.

Because it was a quantum leap. The latter part of the 60s started a movement that led to where we are today.
Women had unprecedented freedom in the late 60s. Too many people confuse the sterile environment of the 50s with the 60s.

Same. I do remember an uncle shipping off the Vietnam. It really messed up my mom.

And the 50s were better than the 1800s where blacks were literally enslaved but it doesn't mean blacks are running to make a time machine to go back to 1950.

Naw, but relativism matters.
In 40 years people will think 2019 was terribly oppressive.

What other barriers are there to break?

I don't think that has shite to do with Nurses statement.

And stigmatised for a reason.
Normalizing single parent households has been a disaster.
We’ve let men off the hook, we’ve told women “you can do it all (simultaneously), and our children are in the middle, suffering for it.

Yes because forcing two people to get married just because they fricked and are now expecting a kid is just setting up for a wonderful environment for a child to be raised in.
I do believe in marriage....which is why I feel like it should be taken seriously as a life long commitment...and not something used to make sure a woman is seen as respectable.
If you were a woman in the 60s and pregnant and didn't believe in abortion(whether or not it was legal)...your only acceptable option was get married asap.

That's what people were saying in 1967.
Shifts in values change your perception.

funny, the "counter culture" was supposedly so "dominant" but Nixon was elected twice as was Reagan in CA.
What is called "the 60's" was more like 1966 to 1974.

Yeah the early 70s were much more like the 60s than the years immediately after.

The 60’s planted the seed for the out of control infestation of liberalism we have today.

Can you imagine the news cycles if a sitting President, United States Attorney General, and two of the leading Civil rights activist were all assassinated. Pretty crazy times when you think about what all was happening around the world.
