Re: It does take place in, like, 1962.

It's just interesting you're willing to suspend disbelief for some things, but not others, is all I'm saying. There's absolutely nothing about this movie series that says "historical accuracy!" or even "real world!" Attempting to justify that it makes sense to have these sorts of storylines in a cartoon about superheroes is a STRETCH.

By the way, it in fact does make sense to have such attitudes and behaviors in Agent Carter because that was the whole point of her arc, particularly in season 1. I have never seen Stranger Things so I can't comment on it. But I honestly am having one hell of a time coming up with any REASONABLE, NECESSARY plot or characterization purpose for misogynistic/patriarchal attitudes in the Incredibles.

All I was saying was that the attitudes make sense to me in the context of the era. I feel like that era was chosen for its aesthetic and because of the way history had gone - all kinds of advances in the 40s, a pullback in the 50s, big changes in the 60s, sort of paralleled the story they wanted to tell about superheroes in the first movie. In the second movie, there is more breaking away from the culture of how it had been, which worked well in that time period. Somebody who hasn't been a stay-at-home parent and hasn't been expected to be has to learn a lot of stuff. And Bob obviously hadn't been a stay-at-home parent at that point, which fits with the era, for me. If it doesn't work for you, okay.
