[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The constant millennial vs gen z discourse is very bizarre. I cant remember millennials particularly caring what Xers were up to, and certainly not fixating or constantly trashing them the way Gen Z does to millennials.  Why are millennials still the center of style discourse when theyre in their 30s?  It's all so odd.[/quote]

Exactly. When we (millennials) were young we wanted to be cute and go out with our friends and our peers were our focus. I certainly did not focus on what some 40yo mom was wearing.

Gen Z has too much time on their hand and too many platforms for various nonsense. Also their fashion is terrible, don't care what they think of my socks. [/quote]

I believe the stats back this up. Gen Z is not going to parties, not having sex, not drinking, which may sound good on the surface, but many of those things are important milestones of young adulthood and indicators of a healthy social life.  Many of them are perpetually online without many real life friendships or other areas to focus on, so now they spend a lot of their day fixating on what 30 and 40 somethings are doing.  And they're oddly competitive about it.  Very perplexing.[/quote]
