“Friends,” said the Chinese philosopher Mencius, “are the siblings God never gave us.” Baby boomers, think back … to friendships past and ongoing. What bonded you?

We came of age with second-wave feminism, or as we called it then, women’s lib. Think back … was your consciousness raised? When and by what? Did you read The Women’s Room or Ms?

As we observe International Women’s Day (March 8), share your feminism stories forward.

Back in the day, toys weren’t as sophisticated as they are now—but that didn’t stop us! Think back … what were your favorite toys, dolls, or games? How did they spark your imagination? Does a particular toy stand out in your memory? What toys have you passed on to your children or grandchildren? Share your toy stories forward.

We can almost trace our lives through popular dances. Baby boomers, think back … remember the Hokey Pokey? The Limbo? The Twist and the Frug? Line dancing and swing dancing? The Hustle? The Macarena? Which dances stand out? What role did dancing play in your life? Were you caught up in disco? Did you dance like no one was watching? Share your dance stories forward.
