Tk Photos Showing the '70s Were Anything But Uptight
A lot of people born or raised in the seventies are boring, grumpy, and tired nowadays, so you might think their decade wasn't really that good, but you'd be wrong. The 1970s saw an increase in all art forms, thanks to how easy it was to share them with others. From movies to TV, including a lot of music, and much more, everything was blooming like never before, and people were enjoying the heck out of it, whether they were at home or going out with friends to discos and malls.
So, here are some photos showing that the '70s were anything but uptight.
