Millennials are up to 38 years old in 2019.
- acheron 7y agoNobody born in 1982 has anything in common with someone born in the 90s. If you want to make “millennial” that expansive, then it loses all meaning.
- Raphmedia 7y agoI am born in 1991 and my brother in 1981. We share the same values and were raised much the same way in a very similar environment. At work, my team is composed mostly of individuals born in the 80's and we are only a handful of 90's. We share the same workplace attitudes. The person I am dating was born in 1985. We see the world in a very similar way and share a lot of the same hobbies. I did not come up with the date range. Look anywhere and that's what you will see.

- wgj 7y agoIf you decide on your own arbitrary definitions of words, they lose all their meaning. "Researchers and popular media use the early 1980s as starting birth years" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials
- pessimizer 7y agoOf course they are. They're also an absurdly tracked and recorded generation, all of their cultural idols and most of their work supervisors are Gen X, and the people who own the companies that employ them and manufacture everything they buy are Boomers. Their kids are also up to 20 years old, and are more polished online than they were; they were born being judged for what they posted, and knowing that everyone at school would see it.
