So here's an interesting one. We have members from all different generations here on the community, so I'm very curious to see what people's thoughts are here.
For me, it would be the 70s, only because I'd be in high school during the 80s. I've always been a big fan of the 80s, personally.
If you could be born in a different time era, which would you choose, and why?

I was born in 1965, the 80s would be a great time, I would have loved to be born in the late 40s, I would have seen the 50s and 60s, with the crazy cars, Ford Mustang e.g., the drive-ins

I'd want to live as a cowboy in the wild west

Depends on if I could also choose my status at the time (to just not be slave/poor/peasant/etc). Ancient Rome would be cool. Colonial America. Roaring '20s. Post WWII.

Then you have to deal with the whole Cold War nuclear-fears too though. Trade-offs for real.
I don't think those fears have really gone away lol.

For me it would have to be the 60s. I am an Environmentalist and I love music as well as nature. If I had been born back during Woodstock, I would have been there.
Set made by me!
