Why does Gen X have the shortest amount of years in a classified generation?

Baby boomers are 1946-1964 (18 yrs)

Gen X 1965-1976 (11 yrs)

Gen Y 1976-2001 (24 yrs)

Gen Y seems to encompass the most amount of time of any generation.

Gen y is too wide. It should break by did you grow up in AOL/Napster timeframe with a Nokia phone or not.

I usually see Gen X carried into the early 80's (either 80 or 81).

1. Gen X is usually until 1980
2. No one says "Gen Y", they say Millennials

Generations should move to the metric system. Every 10 years is a generation.

Shouldn't a generation be 20-25 years since a large amount of people have children in this age range

Scientifically defined based on the research we produce, I saw that millineials are 19-34 years old. Centennials are 0-18

Where do you get the years from????????



I would go from 1965 to 1986....That would be more accurate as far as ME goes..............

No fricking way. Maybe 80-82 and that's pushing it.
