[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another perspective on this topic:

It's doubtlessly true that gen Z as a whole will be the fattest. [b]But we are also steadily moving towards a dimorphic society, like everything else in modern America. The to 20% live extremely well. They are fit and healthy and exercise and watch their diets. The bottom 50% are obese and unhealthy.[/b]

I'm 43 and live in upper middle classdom and the kids in this area are even more obsessed with fitness than we were at their age 20-25 years ago. No one smokes, for example, compared to my expensive private school days in the 1990s. Drinking is far less common. Kids live in athletic gear.

But when I go outside this bubble, things are unquestionably different for lower income kids.[/quote]

I agree with you on principle, but I saw some of this 20+ years ago.  I lived and worked in San Francisco back then, and generally speaking the majority of people around me, especially in my age group, were pretty fit.  I then took a job based in Sacramento, and the difference in fitness levels, especially in my age group, was very noticeable.   There was just a large difference between people in the major cities and those outside of them.   [/quote]
