When I was a teen I absolutely hated "teen-oriented" events, politicians who talked about involving the "youth", and so on. Anyone else feel the same way?

- electromagnetic 17y agoAgreed, teen-orientated generally meant teen-avoided to me.
- tpyo 17y agoYeah, but it's more the pop monoculture that irks me. I wish people would explore the arts more, so that it's people sharing what they have discovered than having something common to talk about (assuming that's why we have pop culture). At least it's still social, that way.
- gnosis 17y agoKids generally want to be treated like adults (or at least think they do).
- Psyonic 17y agoI was the same way. I'd have been much more interested in attending a real tech event (CES, perhaps), than something called "Teens in Tech." That said, it could be a good event, I really know nothing about it.
