Excellent perspective. Thank you.

You do realize many people still live like this today? This isn't an obsession with clothes or music. It's a want to return to traditional values and simpler way of living. Not everyone can afford to live in modernity. I'm a millennial but was raised in a house with no tv, no radio, no computer, no microwave. We grew most of our food and then canned/froze it to last a couple years. Most food was made from scratch. We made our own butter, cheese, mustard, ketchup and mayo. My mom sewed all of my clothes. Neighbors had chickens and cows. Family members hunted. We made our own soaps, candles, lotions. My grandfather and father built much of the furniture I still use today. I continue to do all of these things as an adult and pass the knowledge to my daughter.. Not everyone can afford to buy everything they need. Making stuff yourself lets you be less reliant on the government and have a large family on a lower middle class salary. None of my grandparents ever had to deal with the ration cards because they knew how to grow a lot of food on 1/3 acre and hunt/fish and preserve food.

@@VictoriaReadsReddit I admire anyone who strives to exist simply and self-sufficiently and there are many appealing cultural qualities to that sort of lifestyle, especially against all the 'noise' of the modern world - for the most part nowadays, though, it is a **choice** of lifestyle that people adopt voluntarily. Whereas in the 1940s, men and women were forced into austerity because of WWII and the deprivation that existed as a result; they didn't choose to live that way, they had to. More specifically, had the Depression or the War never happened, fashion, music and culture of that period would've been significantly different. The point I'm trying to make is, the way you were brought up is not the same as living in the 1940s, like this woman desires - it's **similar** , but not the same, because it's for entirely different reasons.

I have seen re-enactments of the American Ciil War, a very nasty time. I can attest that the women had style (never mind that a common cause of death for women then was that they burned to death as their long dresses got drawn into a fireplace or stove). Medicine was still rudimentary, and dysentery was commonplace.

It really wasn’t a better living standard, you just expected less. There was one phone in the house only. One car only. One TV only. Your closet could fit about three dresses. Two pairs of pants and about four pair of shoes. You ate out maybe once every three or four months for a special occasion.

My parents were depression babies. And they lived with rationed supplies. Like you you got a 5 pound bag of white sugar for a month. But that 5 pounds was used for cooking and baking and for the kids cereal and for your coffee. That sugar is used fast. My Grandpa would get 2 used and 2 new tire inter tubes a year. He was a farmer with plenty of machinery to work the land. So he would mend those inter tubes often. And when keep repairing them putting patches upon patches to make due. Until there were no more places he could put any more patches on. Then after he had a few old inter tubes he and my great Uncle’s would all gather up their old tubes and bring them over. And my Grandpa and Great Uncles and my Great Grandpa would melt those old tubes in a huge melting pot and would fix EVERYONES shoes. Painting the melted rubber on the bottoms of the shoes to extend the life of the shoes and taking a ripped piece of newspaper and holding it against where the leather came off the sole of the shoe and paint rubber over the hole or rip in the shoe, sometimes doing 4 to 6 layers. And you kept those shoes until the youngest kid couldn’t wear them anymore. And women and girls wore potato sack dresses and potato sack shirts and pants. Then WE2 started and things were rationed even more. You also mended clothes until you didn’t have a spot to put a patch on. It didn’t matter if your legs were longer than your pants. You wore those pants until Mom let them out as much as she could. Only when those pants were so tight around your middle and no one else had kids pants that were bigger did you get either pants OR mom bought fabric to make you a pair. And she would make as many pairs of pants and skirts as she could get out of that piece of fabric. My Mom’s side were farmers, My Dad side were handy men and gas station owner. So Moms side always had plenty of food Dads side struggled. The kids always got to eat first, then Grandma and Grandpa ate what was left.

Woman, the world population back in 1940 was approximately 2.3 billion. World war II killed approximately 50 - 56 million people and war-related diseases and famine took out another 50 - 55 million. So you're looking at in excess of 100 million deaths or about 4% of the world's total population. You're not taking into consideration the rationing in Britain, which was almost down at starvation level - the lack of adequate nutrition was reflected in British performances in sport for the best part of a generation.

Exactly. John D. Rockefeller wanted to get women into the work force, this was for the state to have access to the children, create further taxes and to DESTROY THE FAMILY. When the family breaks down, the society follows. Like all we see happening today. It was definitely NOT about doing anything positive for citizens. That state could not possibly care less about your quality of life and certainly has no good intentions for our children. There are many common misconceptions and it is detrimental to holding our government accountable. There are many articles which seek to convince us that he didn’t write what I’m about to suggest, but you must understand their motivation to hide truth. It is everywhere! John D. Rockefeller wrote the Masonic Creed. Once you read this document, you won’t be able yo deny that it is the plan to enslave us all. Please dismiss all the “fact checkers” and find it online. “John D. Rockefeller Masonic Creed.”

Depends on what part of the US and if your family was well off or poor. Also, in the first half of the 1940s, men were overseas for WWII and women were in the factories. They earned their own money and had more freedom and control over how they spent their free time. It wasn't a joyful time for sure but it was a taste of independence and different than what followed, when the war ended and men returned. I think the young lady is romantisizing the fact that women only had 2 jobs (household management and child rearing) instead of the 3 they try to juggle today (same as above but now with 40 hours of work outside the home). What she fails to realize is that housework, is backbreaking work without modern appliances and child rearing was often seen as your only value or contribution to your respective families. In other words, it didn't matter if you had other talents, or were kind, did community service, etc if no children were born.

Domestic violence wasn't even a thing back then If a man hit his wife or cheated on her, it just between them. she had to stay because she couldn't just leave and take care of the kids on her own. This is why alimony and child support were created. But you're right, she wouldn't have to worry about being shot by her grandchildren... I guess?

Thomas Sowell is a genius! By the 40's black owned businesses had started to decline according to an article by Harvard. The Golden age of Black business was between 1900 and 1930.

@@incubus_the_man Men always died in war defending their women and their children and country, but not 100% of them, or 90% of them, or 50% or 30%, or mankind would not have survived, and yet here you are. It's amazing what terror some of the men living nowadays feel toward having to be brave. What an embarrassment! Some men today feminize themselves by choice, and being terrified of defending a country is part of that feminization. Also, you don't care that young blacks are murdering other children in the neighborhood, women in the neighborhood, and elderly people in the neighborhood, do you? You need to be ashamed of yourself, and it should be an embarrassment to you that you aren't.

Bless you ma'am 🙏🏾

Yeah, but u like having my own bank account in my name and it being legal. You all can run your household as you like.

Back to the farm, wish more of you went back farming honestly

Thank you for all you did ma’am! My mom is 87. That’s why people of your generation are known as “The Greatest Generation”. Everyone sacrificed for the good of their country and each other. Today’s young adults…very sad that they have no respect for what you all did for them.

@@kimwidol that's the truth. These know-it-alls today think they know everything and just soak up the b.s. they are fed. The 40's was a time that will never happen again. WWII was raging and most men had to go. Even my grandfather was called and he was in his late 30's and low on the list. But, he answered the call. My mom was born 1 week after he left. She met her Dad when she was 2 but she was lucky cause a lot of men never came home. With a shortage of men, women picked up the slack and ran this country and kept the home fires burning. With out the women doing this, we would have lost. Not all women who picked up the slack were single, many wives with children did too. That's where daycares got their start. My family still has the letters that my grandfather sent home to my grandmother during the war.

A household??? Like what time dinner was on

​@@noirekuroraigami2270 Politics. Men dont care as much as women do.

What are you talking about influence? As soon as you walked through those doors it became her house, happy wife happy life came from this era. I knew my great and great great grandparents and my grandmothers were the ones who made all the decisions and my grandfathers wouldn't dare upset them. Generation later my grandpa was a dog constantly cheating and my great grandma said it's because women stopped being special and became just like the men when they entered the work force.

"On a household" Okay, but they weren't able to own property, buy a car, or vote. Fucking dumbass.

@@TheSkyfolk I thought the 19th amendment was passed in 1920 that gave them the right to vote correct me if I’m wrong

1913 for mine, she made it to 100... mainly because she was too stubborn to die (or evil, perhaps)! She was also highly opinionated, intelligent, and articulate and brow-beat my grandpa for 70 years, he was a generally quiet stoic man and he knew not to test her! It's funny what people THINK life was like in X year.

True, woman during this period, unlike popular belief was strong individuals and had strong opinions.

He is showing his ignorance once again. People have always been allowed to have opinions

My grandmother was born in 1939 and she has a beautiful cottage and a million dollar home with a massive garden and pool that she tends to everyday. She has a dog and my grandfather past away but she had 45 years of loving marriage and a lifetime of travels and stories to tell. Things weren’t perfect but she didn’t miss out.

It drives me crazy how ignorant people are about women in the past. Too right strong independant women always existed and demanded respect!

yeah ok.

To who?

​@BP ...to the dishes, she was hand washing. Or the kitchen cabinets 😅

Lying out your fat ass.

Lying out of your obese ass

9 things women could not do before 1971. Women could not get a credit card in their own name and serve on the front lines in 1971. They could get fired for getting pregnant, they could not take legal action against workplace sexual harassment, they paid more in health insurance and they were unable to take their husbands to court for rape. It is not 100% accurate that women couldn't serve on juries and get an Ivy League education or contraception. Right now im only guessing it was even worse in 1941...

From men lol

Talk about “missed the point” 🤦‍♂️

And all he had to do was die. Alot less work lets give it a try

@@rogerdavila6988 "suck-machine" was a hell-of-a woman

In all don't expect these people yt poops to have any valuable knowledge

Don’t make this about your granny tho be realistic we all watched popeye cartoons

Issue is, your granny lived in the UK, not the US…in the US women were still often thought of like objects rather than people at that time. It was even mentioned in a U.S. Army training manual that women in the UK can outrank them, deserve to be treated with more respect, and are “more strongly opinionated”.

AMAZING

​@@colinwalker6804 someone's pretending to know because they watched movies.

Even without war it was hard for most. And that´s only considering USA and Europe, in third world countries it was very hellish.

​@Wen6543 well how it seems to have gone, the states is like a 3rd world country w electronics

@@Wen6543crazy part is that the war was also fought in many third world countries. Phillipines, Indonesia, and many other areas of the pacific and even throughout North Africa. Not taking away from your claim but just adding to it since a lot of people may not know that. The scope of WWII was unparalleled. But like said it would be hard enough without the war

@@aquastar5314that’s something that only people who’ve never left the U.S. would say 😂. Living conditions in a third world country are significantly different. You can’t drink the water in many areas, have to pay to use the bathroom and can’t flush toilet paper only throw it in the trash for starters. And shower using a bucket and sponge. I highly recommend traveling and getting to experience other cultures though. I’ve been through the boondocks of the Philippines they’re very poor but some of the nicest, happiest people you’ll ever meet.

@@surfjax23 Come to the UK as the Tories have brought much of that back in, you now have to pay to use a public toilet, and we have 1 in 4 children living in extream poverty, like going without food for days and sleeping on the streets, and now we have houdrads of young children with rickets and osteomalacia, and 1 in 3 families needing to use food banks, and half of the elderly pensioners going without heating as it's just way to expensive.

Probably because she was too young to remember the war (or have any responsibility)?

MOST people look back on their youth and remember it fondly. That doesn't mean it was the best of times for everybody. We're just conditioned to think we did it right, while our parents did it wrong and our kids have screwed it all up. I guarantee your grandmother thought the next generation was out of their minds.

Slaves grew up during slavery and looked back at those days fondly as well.... I'm sure non Jewish Germans looked back at those Nazis days as being generally good days as well... I'm sure the woman not fighting for equality looked back at those days fondly as well

Mine never complained she was in her 20s in the 40s

🤔Because your granny from that era (raised differently). But a YT female from now, that can get more than merely a black man MeToo’ed without proof and other feminist privileges that she doesn’t miss now, because their still accessible, IS QUITE A DIFFERENT STORY.

I don't normally encourage messaging an ex but i must know... (gonna paste my comment of questions here) ALL THE TYPOS/MISSED SPACES IN THIS POST ARE BECAUSE KZfaq BLOCKED ME SAYING IT OTHERWISE I would unalivesomeone to ask her these: Could she have a bank account? An opinion? A right to not be beaten? A blackmale friend? A man??? (SORRY HE BUSY BEING UNALIVEDIN EUROPE) Could she be a housewife? (Sorry get a job to help the wareffort) could she buy food? Sorry it's scarce, there's a war on. Actually that applies to every supply she wants. Now that she is okay with that, let's get on withnuking japan TWICE and unalivr 6million Jews+30 million russians. *Yay, now your man is back. He has one leg and no pen15 and cant get a job and has INSANE PTSD from burning Japanese people alive and watching ALL OF HIS FRIENDS BEUNALIVED. He also cant hear you well because of all theexplosions and bulletsand his PTSD makes him blame you for that and beat you extra for it. But at least you can run from beatings because HE HAS ONE LEG and needs 24/7 care with no income* F me. This is such a stupid thing to say, that it actually makes Suzie *actually look crazy for not liking pesto*

all the comments on old victorian videos of people wishing to live in that time.....got me eyerolling amillion times

My grandfather served in WWII-one of many relatives who did, unfortunately. But he met and married my grandmother after he came back.

There were still restrictions on her life

Yeah she also couldn't have her own bank account, or line of credit, or divorce her husband unless the husband said so.... People really need to start reading history books.

The opinion that more women should be able to express their opinion, because it was indeed, unpopular for women to have those

​​​@@MrTrees77 What century are you talking about? My first female ancestor to Jamestown owned 80+ acres, circa 1611. I had several that owned land in the 1800's. My Great Grandmother Owned a Merchandise Store in Heavner, Oklahoma, Indian Territory. It had her name on it. They called her DOC. When she moved south, there was a woman that handed her her baby in the train and said she couldn't afford to raise it. Granny took her in and raised her as one of her own and the family was always welcome and known. No fuss.

1953-65 and 78-88 seem to be the best time to be alive in America. 2017-present is the worst, because although there were worse times on paper the social fabric of the country has fell apart.

Sooooo true , ahhhh the 80’s when everyday was Halloween I love and miss the 80’s ❤❤❤

I would have stopped in 1973, just before the Arab oil embargo.

Yeah, as a black guy, I’m not going back further than that lol. That “If you had a time machine…” question is pretty much pointless for us.

​​@@80PercentAshamedOfU _Hard_ agree. 1953-1965 in particular? *_NO THANKS!_* 🙄

Her parents have left the mennonite theology.

​@@darkfarfetch3664Do think theres anything wromg with that

​@@darkfarfetch3664yep. She wants to dress nice she wants to be a stay-at-home mom with a nanny and a maid.

The dress looks great on her.

@@troyesivan4416y’all just want all control you don’t want anyone who would challenge your authority

People really overlook how strong so many women were back then! Yes, life was tough and many women were overlooked, but many of them were the REAL heads of household as well. My grandma was a tough woman made from cast iron haha!

Many modern feminist ideas are actually male driven ideas. Men who own the corporations want feminists buying everything you could have gotten for free as part of a family unit..

People think women were slaves and life was nothing but abusive husbands and burnt meatloaf for some reason

@@SerV689 sounds like my mom lmao “grandma wasn’t allowed to do math because she had to raise kids”

​​@@SerV689 Oh yea, the generation that was abused on a daily basis by their husbands but yet every time I turn around I get asked "So when are you gonna get married dear?" That just the trauma talking right? Stop with the feminist propaganda

Think she felt that way because her work was going toward something? now our work just goes towards most time’s nothing significant like they did during ww2.

@katiePetsy Sad but true. Great story thanks.

​@@AIRBORNE916 I've worked for nonprofits for 30 years. There are choices out there. But I'll bet she just liked working.

It's great that she was actually valued at work. Nowadays it seems like many employers these days don't value their workers and they simply just end up feeling like cogs in a machine

Didnt realize the band was that old

@@squidgaurd6927 Normally i would just assume that's a joke and find it funny but nowadays you never know, so you know i wasn't talking about a band right?😅

@@knowledgelesspumpkin5887 yeah, i just have dry humor

@@squidgaurd6927 no its ok i get it as said, as a joke its funny, the problem is you can't really be sure if it is a joke these days 🤣

Try comprehending and realize that she has no interest in the negative aspects.

But that is when lots of college graduates found themselves toiling in retail or restaurant work for lack of any better opportunities and were expected to be thankful to shareholders and executives for getting less than a living . There never was a golden age and probably never will be.

Exactly. Like, I very much enjoy my video games, unsegregated schools, and not dying of polio thank you very much.

Flappers. Yes.

For me, as a black woman, I enjoy not fearing being hanged, or just working as the help.

Literally, just dress differently then dude.
