Date: 2019-06-01 07:33 pm (UTC)For me, the key image of the wonders of the one-car, one-breadwinner suburban nuclear family, was mothers slowly turning themselves into drunks, because their natural/God-given/good-for-society role was so incredibly satisfying and inspiring to them. (Those of a slightly higher class would have had prescription valium instead, and maybe some of those I observed were doing both, with the latter less obvious to a child.)
The other image from that time was an clothing ad "now she can join the man-trap set", with an image of a child too young to even be budding breasts - and my cousin who lived that pattern.
