Would you like any of these to make a comeback?

[@tobiojo6469]

No

[@JessieArmy]

NGL I like some of these much more than the crap we have going on today.

[@twannifufu]

Most of these rules were designed to protect the sanctity of White Womanhood, allegedly. They were not made with any other racial,, ethnic, or national group in mind.

[@JessieArmy]

@Thereisbut1bunghole I do. But do men?

[@Synbios459]

Call me sexist if you want, but I think most of these rules were pretty good for the most part

[@claudiaharris2873]

You are definitely sexist.

[@user-zt4nf6zk4u]

I completly agree. I have never been a fan of feminism. I was born one generation too late

[@dantekole6742]

Man… even Grunge has dropped off… maybe if society held onto morals, values and ethics we wouldn’t be in such turmoil today. Peace be upon all who read this.

[@foreverglow5685]

I didn't realize that meeting the parents on the first date is no longer necessary

[@tobiojo6469]

The fake it till you make it rule is no dumb and stupid

[@markj9267]

bring back the 50s!

[@kl2894]

It was totally different as a teenager in Australia in the 80s. We never had a dating culture. You only went out with the person you were 'going with'. Otherwise you hung out in groups, generally of friends of both sexes. Expecting people to date socially like in the US always seemed kind of weird lol.

[@CybeleCotter]

I was only 3 in 1960, so I only remember dating in the 60s and onward.

[@jahirareyes1102]

Well the early 1960s and even into mid 1960s was quite similar to the 1950s so you know a few little things i guess.

[@jlongino51823]

There’s nothing wrong with standards and/or having respect for yourself and others. It trumps everything that is “dating” today.

[@lindysmith13]

OMG- I'm stuck in the 50s. No wonder I'm confused.

[@carmelmhennessy9738]

I think some of these rules are very cute. I definitely wish I was about 30 years older.

[@pjesf]

A full 20 years before women were even allowed to get a credit card without a male co-sign

[@bigERV]

If these standards were only in place today...

[@user-bp9pz1eu9s]

Bonnie Joe Smith is 63 my parents married in the 50s my dating was the 70s I'm single at 63 and there is no dating for old people no more

[@user-zt4nf6zk4u]

Young girls are poor judges of character thats why the bad guy troupe is so popular. Bad boys in real life become bad men.

[@nataliedelagrandiere4022]

Boring.

[@PJ-pj8lr]

The commentator is doing a lot of woke-splaining, he aint fooling anyone.
