| | What "Generation" are you? The 60's was the love generation.
The 70's was disco.
I have no idea what my generation was? 80's punk? Hair? Lost?
90's was Generation X.
00's unknown as of now.
Which one do you fall in?

| | I would say I straddle the 80's and 90's, but I fit more in the 80's.
How to define the eighties......hmmmmmm good question.
I give you THIS definition http://www.westwoodi.net/~smilies/co...or/lhdevil.gif
Well, it was me in the 80's anyway

| | | I grew up in the 90's, but for some crazy reason, I identify more with the 80's. Or atleast I liked the 80's more than the 90's. Im still trying to figure out 00. |

| | | I became "aware" in the nineties. The '00s have yet to come and go so my generation could change.

R. Reagon as John Wayne (sp?) Breakfastclub...hair bands...Thoughts of Nuclear war none Leather and spikes and everything nice.

| | @Weasel, yeah, wasn't it great?
And I love the look the ladies had in the 80's. Like Hair Metal video come true
*Plus, the Washington Redskins were actually GOOD then*

| | Do you define "my generation" as the one wherein I was in my teens, and therefore the one when I was most involved in popular culture? That would make me a 70's guy.
I think its the Y Generation after Generation X.... |

| | Born 1970. Musically addicted to the 60's (Woodstock RULES !) and in my teens - first Punk, then Heavy Metal - then I got stuck on Blues (f.example: J.L.H. & S.R.V.  ! - If you have to ask, you don't have the right to know  . )
That makes me some kind of Gen "VWXY" ...
NO worries,

| | I always ended up presuming i would have been better in another decade but the truth is those decades were all full of problems just like our own. The sixties appears to be the "free love" period but it was also a time rife with struggles for independence, there were wholsale riots and other demonstrations, on the outside it may seem like a period of time we all want to be in, but sadly just like any other generation it is steeped in problems. There was also a very strong establishment back then, extremely oppressive.
I always thought i would have wanted to be part of the 50's, then i learned about the massive weight of oppression and the lack of civil liberties and the over-bearing establishment and decided i am happy where i am.
Anyway (  ) i would say my generation is the 90's, i am not really that aware of what i did in the 80's even though i was born '82.
