I think it's possible that it's a '78, but that's just based on a vague memory of riding a bike like this (men's version) back in the late '70s.
Mixtes look like a mix of the two to me. There are other differences but I'm not knowledgeable enough to tell you.
I wouldn't. A lot of guys ride them around here.
