Aging hipsters? No one born after 1952 or ‘53 could ever really have been a “hipster”. I’m 1959...I never felt that I was in the same league with the ‘43 to ‘53 league of boomers. I’d have been kidding myself.
I’ve always heard that the “Baby Boom” generation were the ones born between 1946 and 1964, and that “Gen X” was born between 1961 and 1981. I was born in 1961 (same year as 0bama, yuk) so I’m never sure which annoying bunch of losers I’m supposed to belong to.
Baby boomer is a term used to describe a person who was born during the Post-World War II baby boom between 1946 and 1964. There IS NO “43 to 53 league of baby boomers”. The baby boom is defined as starting after the end of WWII. Those like myself who were born in the years between Pearl Harbor and the surrender of Japan are NOT baby boomers.
