What America did you grow up in?

2. I've seen those posts too.

The country I grew up in was in which {the term used for gay people} were, by default, mentally ill. They could be involuntarily committed to mental hospitals. You could forget about pursuing any career other than flower arranging or interior decorating. You could be kicked out of school for your own good.

Yep, those were the swell fifties and sixties that have people crying about the good old days.

Good for some people.
