What Decade Should You Have REALLY Been Born In?

Have you ever wondered if you were born in the wrong decade? I never really thought about this much when I was younger...but it's really been crossing my mind lately. I think I should have been born in the 50's. Here's why:

1. I think I'd make a pretty good housewife and mom. This is what I've always wanted to do (I just wouldn't admit it before I was married)...Making cookies and washing clothes for my sweetie sounds good to me! Why do I have to be all empowered and get a job?? It seems that in this day and age I have to be a good housewife, mom and EMPLOYEE. I feel so pressured.

2. I like the t.v shows from the 50's. Life just looked simpler.

3. Poodle skirts look they would be fun to wear.

4. I love sipping on fountain soda pop, and eating burgers and fries. Thus, since many people frequented diners in the 50's...I'd fit right in.

5. I'm pretty sure women weren't expected to be as thin back then. I like that.

6. I'm also pretty sure no one was digitally fixing pictures of models back then. That's nice too.

What do you think...do I belong in the 50's?
