Titles:These 9 Old-Fashioned Habits Need To Come Back Today!9 Old-Fashioned Habits That We Should Never ForgetWho Says Old-Fashioned Is Wrong? 9 Habits From The Old Days To Bring BackLiving during the 60s and 70s meant living in a time of etiquette and fashion. People cared about what they looked like, what they said and did, and how they went out on dates. There was respect from both men and women and times were much simpler because of it! It’s so easy to want to live the same way as men and women did back in the good old days. Since it is impossible to go back to them, why not bring them forward to us? Read on for nine habits from the 60s and 70s that should be brought back to us today:1.Sexy Could Be ModestBack then, both men and women actually valued modesty in themselves and one another. Being sexy didn’t mean having to bare all to get attention. Men, women and children dressed appropriately for the season and occasion and didn’t show everything off to the public. They left some things to the imagination and valued their body more than people do now.2.Dressing Up For The OccasionNo one dresses fancy for the occasion anymore. People dress in casual street clothes for occasions that they should be more dressed up for, such as weddings and funerals. It’s a sign of respect to make an effort! While dressing up every time you walk out the door shouldn’t be mandatory, looking your best most of the time should be.3.Courting The Right WayForget Tinder, Facebook, Instagram and all of the other social media outlets and dating apps. Back then, courting your date was an absolute must when you liked someone. Men and women didn’t just “hook up” or “Netflix and Chill”, they actually went out on romantic dates and courted one another. Time for that to come back!4.Going To DancesDancing wasn’t just about shaking and grinding on your nearest partner. Back then, it meant doing real dances with real learned steps. It was a clean, good time that was enjoyed by all. Dance halls were popular as a place to gather and mingle, something that needs to come back! 5.Talking On The TelephoneToday we communicate via texting and apps on our smartphones. While cellphones are definitely a step up from the old rotary phone, what happened to actually having a conversation with someone? We need to bring back the old days of lounging on the bed and talking, with spoken words, to our friends and family. 6.Matching Clothes For WomenWhile we may look at magazines and TV shows to check out the latest fashions for women, most don’t bother coordinating outfits anymore. We just slap on whatever feels comfortable and go. In the 60s and 70s, women coordinated their outfits everyday-why not bring that back?7.Home CookingSure, we are all extremely busy. Many households now have both parents working long hours, as well as children in multiple activities, so who has time to eat a home-cooked meal? Sitting down at the dinner table is one of the best ways to bond with your family, so aiming for as many home-cooked meals as possible is a plus. It also saves money and is better for you than fast food! 8.Dinner Parties Were The BestDinner parties in the old days were full of classics like fondues and frankfurters. Men and women drank classy drinks, sat down for dinner and mingled when they were finished. Parties were classy but also a lot of fun! Why not try a classy dinner party today instead of another night of binge drinking with strangers at the local bar? 9.Fixing What Was BrokenIn today’s society, when something breaks or tears, we replace it. Not only does that cost money, it’s wasteful and unnecessary most of the time. Clothes can be sewn or patched, electronics can be repaired, and household items can be crafted from scratch instead of just buying new. We need to go back to the time of fixing what is broken instead of just pitching it immediately.
