Funny you mention Edith Bunker. If you think Edith was subservient, you didn't watch too many episodes. And AITF fans know how Edith's daughter Gloria turned out. She married a liberal "meathead."
Tailfins, I don't know how old your kids are. But if they are any reflection of who you are, I hope you have them in a private school where student behavior is strictly regulated. Because otherwise, they are going to rebel. Sort of like I did.
Yep, your kids are going to become liberals.
I keep telling you ... you aren't a liberal. Not from the 70s. You're more the Jimmy Carter and after type lefty. Liberals don't tell people how to live. They live the way they want and don't want to be hassled. Rebelling against your parents just makes you one of a couple million others just like you.
Anyway, I loved All in the Family. When Edith would bow up on Archie was hilarious. When she started menopause and Archie was clueless was a riot. She told him to get his own beer The look on his face was priceless. They could have left Meathead out of the show for all I cared about him. He was just around for Archie to beat up on.
Archie and George Jefferson going at it was the best
TF's wife is going to bow up on him one day and it's going to crush what little self esteem he has.
