Your favourite era

I very much despise reiterating the title all the time. But Slave is my middle name so I'm basically compelled to fulfil such annoying acts of cyberdrudgery. Sigh...

Anyway, what is your favourite era? You can shorten it to a specific decade or stretch it over many, like the Middle Ages or the Renaissance, or just say... the 1950's. Be sure to give a reason.

I think the 1920's and 1940's are the most interesting, from a historical point of view.

I'm most interested from the culture in the 1960's, such as music and television shows.

It's also interesting seeing how quickly things changed from the 1990's to now. Though I also find the attitude from certain people who grew up in this to be era off-putting.

1980's are my favorite decade in terms of movies.

The 90s. Everything was awesome in the 90s.

1980's seemed awesome. Loved the music and movies of that decade. I wish I grew up in it.

Definitely the 90s. While, the clothes were tacky as fuck... I enjoyed the shows and cartoons and movies far more than what you see today. I was also born in '88, so I mainly got raised during the 90s because the 80s were pretty much over by the time I was born. XD Another era I like is also the 50s. I love 50s music, and I love the clothing even more. It seemed like such a fun time to be a teenager and what not, you know? :3

Since I could only choose one, I went with the 90s. <3

Everything was awesome in the 90s.

Not true. I definitely wasn't :laugh-squinted:

1900s. The calm before the storm. Two World wars, a cold war, a few regional wars, more ground breaking advancements in science, math, medicine, tech, etc. Crazy political divide. Advancing civil rights for some countries. More great fiction. And a whole lot of other crap.

90s were good for me!

tbh when i saw this thread I though people were gonna be like saying the 1400s when people died of dysentery at age 20

 

[professor plum]

BTW era for sure

the fame monster era >

anyway i'm glad i was born in the 90s actually. i think my childhood was pretty great.

Born at the tail end of 2000 so I just missed the 90's!

I'd say the 1940's and 1960's. I'm absolutely enthralled by history and I've read so many books on the second world war and what life was like in Europe during that time period. Also, I loved the women's fashion. It was so elegant.

I also love the 1960's. So much occurred in that decade including everything from the civil right's movement to the riots at Stonewall and the spread of pacifism and hippie culture during the late 60's. It was a time of immense social and political change. Also we had fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn.

I also love the fashion from the 50's, 70's and 90's. Gotta love me some mom jeans!

The 1980's. A beautiful age where creativity was at its apex, and when eccentrics could come into the light and be celebrated instead of shunned. Great music, films and... everything! Effeminacy in men became sort of okay, which is great. Hopefully it'll be normal in a few years - I'd hate to think that my potential sons won't be able to wear eyeliner if they want, or maybe put on a dress if the whim takes them.

Otherwise it's the 50's, 90's and early 2000's. A chunk of my heart is still lost in the latter.
