Youngsters have no idea what life was like without pagers, cellphones, Internet.
No caller ID, only 5 TV channels on TV...
When you had to be screened by your gf parents to have her on the phone.
Good thing where I am from unlike USA, even on daytime TV you could see naked girls, or sex scene in movies.
Erotic movies only on Sunday evening in the late 80's- early 90's, stars had to be aligned for me to get a chance to see one, sneaking silently in living room for the TV trying to watch the channel muted hoping parents won't wake up.
My country still legendary "midnight first Saturday of the month" porn movies preceded by a porn news TV show, on the sole channel on a paid subscription,blurred screen without, most kids tried one the rumored "toilet paper on the screen" trick supposedly to see better, of course not successful.
So mostly had to rely on imagination, super model posters hanging on my bedroom ceiling, models in underwear on women clothes mail order catologues.
Thanks for the vcr becoming more common and the video tapes passed on by friends, and a lil later hidden in a video cassette the decoder to see that famous channel. | |
