Youth isn't what they used to be. When I was young, I toyed around with toys and games and sometimes girls (but they were 'ikky' till I got about 18 or so). Today I busted one of my pupils with handcuffs in classroom
Though they are more toys, they are metal and sturdy 😊
Kids, I love em....
My son got the following presents (along with some other) from his friends for his 18th birthday: handcuffs (immediately broken), a ball gag, Playboy with some photo modifications... So, yes ... 😉
In my youth, I lived on a very large ranch.
So it explosives and guns.
But was back in the late 60s.
In my childhood I was playing with various radio-stuff, my mom's pantyhose, swimsuits, and ideas how to bind myself. Guns were only on the TV.
Hm, that Sounds very familiar 😊
Forts in the barn.
Tree houses.
G.I. Joe
More forts under brush piles.
Shooting Roman Candles at each other.
Watching horses getting it on... Damm, that thing is long.
Now I'm old and stuck in Suberbs.
And no mobile phones, no computers, no Internet...
Yep. We play Monopoly a lot, lot of bike rides,
My first computer was Spectrum, I think  I was 15 😊
Back to 80'...ahhhh.
