The Brady Boomers - The 'Tween Generation - 3
Posted on 10/06/2001 9:46:31 PM PDT by WIMom
Most who were born at the tail end of the baby boom
- 1956 to 1964 or the beginning of GenX - 1965 to 1970 -
feel we are not part of those generations.
Therefore, it has been decided, we will be forever know as
THE BRADY BOOMERS
Post your memories of tunes, movies, shows, fashions, school stuff, or anything from OUR generations! And remember, have fun!
- We were too young to serve in Vietnam, but remember the news.
- As far as we're concerned, the music, television and popular entertainment and heroes of the 60s were and still are a matter for personal taste, and don't represent the shining apex of all civilization, icons to be revered by generations to come - in short, the Beatles were just a band that some might not like, and old Trek was cheesy and not well written.
- Old boomers came into adulthood at while we were playing with Barbies or G.I. Joes.
- Our clothes and music tended to be lighthearted, and we are more conservative/libertarian as a whole than the older boomers.
- And of course, we faithfully watched The Brady Bunch every Friday night.

I was born in 1965, and have vociferously denied membership in Gen X ever since it became known as anything other than Billy Idol's first band. Even as a kid, I thought the Brady Bunch was cheesy, so I have to decline on this one. BUT...if you can come up with something having to do with the 6 Million Dollar Man or the Incredible Hulk, I'm all ears.
