[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hilarious all these Boomers trying to jump on the Gen X bandwagon because they are part of the most reviled generation. [/quote] I’m fine with being reviled for my generational attributes — if it matters enough to anyone to do so, but as a younger boomer, I have little in common with older boomers. None of my peers went to Vietnam — just as an example. Birth control and access to abortion were available by the time I was sexually active. Colleges and service academies that were closed to older female boomers were available to people in my age group. Access to most social environments that were racially segregated for older boomers were legally and practically integrated for people in my age group. Just because someone decided to group age cohorts in ways that were meaningful to them doesn’t mean that I share the same sense of or experiences of social and major historical events. [/quote]
