“Researchers and popular media typically use birth years around 1965 to 1980 to define Generation Xers, although some sources use birth years beginning as early as 1960 and ending somewhere from 1977 to 1985.”
Total Gen X, here.
I was born in ‘64 near NYC and identify as an X’er even though I’m in that cusp.
My childhood, maybe because of where I grew up, was much more aligned with a typical Xer experience than Boomer.
I married a Boomer and there are times we do not get each other AT ALL . lol.
I was born in 1960. Can I play both cards, Boomer/Xer, to get what I want? (/s)
Yep, me too. We are noted for being cynical.
To which I say anybody who is not cynical is hopelessly naive.
