Shiraz Ahmed Siddiqui: Life was simple but beautiful. I remember my childhood early 90s. Really missing those days and friends.

Here's what some tweeps thought...

@Zed_i: Romanticising the past aside, I don’t get why anyone would want to go back. Name a thing you could do in the 20s/50s you can’t do now.

@Ashelhgin: Stop romanticising the past! No you don’t wish to be from the 50s! There was major racism and sexism and even more bad things!

@ultIuck: Stop romanticising the 40s/50s. You may like the dress sense, but I think you like your rights more...
