Two sailors living together on a desert island with a movie star, a professor, a girl next door & a rich couple was the normative image of American domesticity in the 1960s.https://twitter.com/wesyang/status/1420432540645707781 …

Actually 60s domesticity was represented in two different shows where women had powers and the men in their lives were trying to convince them not to use those powers.

This makes as much sense as saying McHale's Navy was the image of American domesticity. Neither that nor Giligan's Island is about a family. Leave it Beaver was the image of the 1950's.

I dunno why the only normative image of domesticity has to come from a sitcom. Because Dallas clearly was seen by more eyeballs than any show in the 80s. And I, uh, wouldn’t exactly call it the paragon of post-racism America.
