The Future According to 1967

The statement made by the narrator regarding the expenses being paid by the gentleman was not sexist. Life at that time consisted of a housewife and a working husband. It was rare for a woman to be working outside of the home and the men were paying for most, if not everything, of the things the couple had owned. If this video was made today, then yes, it would be viewed as sexist because women today have greater job opportunities. Why do you think daycare wasnt greatly known or established until the late seventies? Hmmmm?

Actually, in 1967, it was NOT uncommon for women to be working outside of the home.

something can still be sexist whether its the norm or not at the time

Wasn't that husband in the video future game show host Wink Martindale ???

Thas way before Card Sharks.

I believe that people in the computer industry even back then knew that personl home computers were on the way they just didn't know the exact year they were coming out yet. This was just a liitle film trying to educate people on what was coming.

Sexism is when gender inequality occurs- no matter what era. Thank goddess those days are over!

it is NOT sexist, it was the norm at the time. feminists suck.

I remember seeing this in middle school! Near the end the family is walking along the beach, if I remember correctly...

The hell with watching a video that takes us back to 1967. I, want to go back when the government wasn't in on every damn move we make. When it wasn't a crime to smoke a joint, call a fag a fag, know what it meant to believe " In God we Trust"

1967, wouldn't it be nice to go back and leave this computer lying to the perfectionists. Then we could meet a woman for real instead of having to hope we weren't lied to every time we turned around.

....... will be payed for by the husband at his counterpart console."

OUCH!

payed???????

does "yahoo" have proofreaders?

Hindsight is 20-20, that's how we fix past errors, not dwelling on whether something 40 years ago was sexixt or not. Women of the day were starting to work outside the home though it was the privileged few that joined the ranks of the professions. There were not many female doctors, lawyers, engineers or business leaders. Today much has changed for the better. It is interesting to see how far we have come in forty years isn't it?

Slavin, you are an idiot. You don't even know what "In God we Trust" means. I bet you wear a WWJD band around your wrist and don't have a clue how to treat others with respect and dignity. Go smoke your joint as if you haven't areadly smoked enough to become brain dead.

Being sexist is a male trained state of thought. It was social family training in the 60's and could very well revert back. There is nothing wrong with women staying home. It's difficult for men to breast feed children until their able to eat solid foods. It should never make women mad that a man would want her home. Nice to come home from work have your wife smell delicious and f*** the tension away. :) I should know my husband is always H***** when he gets home. yum

Slavin, I graduated from high school in 1967 and believe me it was a lot worse punishment getting caught smoking a joint then than it is now. A friend of mine was sentenced to five years in the Fla. state prison system for possession of about four joints in mid 1967.

the hot current songs was - Ruby Tuesday- the Stones- PLeasant Valley Sunday - the Monkees- Western Union- The Five Americans- Everlasting Love- Robert Knight- Email me for more fun songs of that wonderful "Summer of love" year!!

What I found funny was the look on the husband's face when he was looking at the bill from the department store and the bank. Things never change. LOL

I prefer a feminist world where the woman pays!

"UNCOMFORTABLE" ? ? ? ? ? WHAT AzzHO WROTE THAT CR*P? ? !
As fun as it is to watch the dated visions of a computer run future, some of the sexist overtone make for uncomfortable viewing
