I grew up in a time when being “politically incorrect” was not a part of our lexicon. You could smoke on planes. You could drive without a seat belt. You could buy candy cigarettes. Black power was a part of pop culture and hippies were our new normal. Walking the aisles of a toy store, you would see things that would never make it on the shelves today. Now peep this gallery of politically incorrect toys from the 70’s & 80’s that we just thought were normal.

Putting the word “dick” on a handgun actually seems appropriate. They are symbolic phalli for grossly insecure males and you have to be a total dick to own one.

We live in a time now were everyone claims to be offended by everything they encounter. We were tougher back then. Not thin skinned like the youth of today.

Candy cigarettes are still around. They just call them candy “sticks” now.

Seems that you have no idea what the word ‘gay’ originally meant.

One of those pics was of Junkyard Dog. Mattel just released an updated version of him not too long ago.
