That’s pretty interesting actually. I never really thought about it though I didn’t think it was like in the films. I don’t think I have ever seen a electroshock scene that wasn’t obviously exaggerated.

Also I know that homosexuality was considered a mental disorder but I didn’t know how much the people really cared. The statement about it for the Baby Boomers generation is quite vague, I thought maybe it was true only for certain age groups. I questioned this because I was trying to calculate which era I would have liked best. Usually I say I wish I had lived during the 50s in America and I know that things weren’t ideal then either but even with all those conflicts I feel like I would have loved it so what the hell is my point.
