Nope, never was a Liberal. Voted for Goldwater. Never anti-war. Never wore flowers in my hair, until I got married. Doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy a good time though! Why is it people think Conservatives have to be prudes? But remember, a Liberal in those days would have been even farther Left then the extreme Left today. History has to be lived to be understood. How will your children interpret your experiences? Who knows, they might think you were a Liberal?

I percieve many people here as being liberals when they were younger when they try and lecture me on how "free" they were during those days. Especially after seeing people from opposite ends of the political spectrum from those days and how prudish they are about sex and "reality"

Please... look at your words and then look at the subject matter you're talking about when you relate them to the days of "free love". You guys are grilling those who are sexually active today yet you "conservatives" were sexually active during the 60's... etc.

Sex existed, porn existed, toys existed, etc, etc....

Trying to tell younger generations that they're wrong and evil for experiencing such things while maintaining your "conservativeness"... all while you did the same things... is noting but hypocritical.
