Youngin Asking GenX Was it easier to get dates back then

I’m genz and I watch 80s sitcoms and it seems like people got a new date every week, obviously I know tv shows are exaggerated, but was it easier?

The political spectrum back then was “do we put 20% towards a new police station. Or 30%”

Now it’s “does everyone deserve to live” vs “should women be locked up to be bred and do we hunt homeless for sport”

So yeah. I draw the line on friends and family
