This will be the generation breakouts used in future social science research.

The Silent Generation: Born 1928-1945 (73-90 years old)
Baby Boomers: Born 1946-1964 (54-72 years old)
Generation X: Born 1965-1980 (38-53 years old)
Millennials: Born 1981-1996 (22-37 years old)
Post-Millennials: Born 1997-Present (0-21 years old)

Post millenials? That’s the best they came up with?

Gen X checking in to be here for advice and counsel. We are your fathers when you can't talk to your own estranged pop.

Sorry, but a 54 year old is not a baby boomer.

Dont worry your baby boomer enablers will allow you to identify however you wish.

God no.

1981 is fine, but 1996 is absurd.

The whole definition is that you came of age during the change in millennium. 1996 means they were 4 at that time.

In my mind, a Millenial is a person who can't remember the internet not existing. Which conflicts with this. I'd put the year at 1990, not 1981.

You can choose your gender, millennial, but you don’t get to pick your generation.

Hated when they put 79 with millenials, my ex and still friend was born that year and she is no millenial. We related well.

I was born in 1970
