@@vilheard3030 Because there were still a lot of cool kitschy shops and restaurants that weren't overly expensive because they hadn't been priced out of the city yet. This was before NYC became a Londongrad of sorts - a place for dictators and other plutocrats to park offshore money in real estate. Don't get me wrong, there were spendy apartments and brownstones, but you could make a decent wage and still survive - especially if you pooled iwth others in a multi-bedroom apartment. The city was starting to shake the crime of the 1970s and 1980s, and the subways were also rideable.

What hasn't changed - the open-ended focus on a man checking out a woman, and according him no privacy (the sneaky attempt at appearing neutral, while actually eliciting outrage at this). Even back then - women "don't" check out men at all! What has changed - this has become worse, thanks to wokeness.
