Finally finished my generation and this chapter seems lacking. I do not feel like it captured the issues faced. Which makes me wonder about earlier chapters. She also does not do a great comparisson of economic power. Yes, we earn more but minimum wage does not cover a big mac now. Also, while she does cover younger generations, she seems to think of us as children.

I already like this chapter even less than the one on my generation. I don't think she consulted anyone who is queer for the first two sections. Onto talking about sex habits. Let's see if she discusses the reasons. She did a poor job already. I'm starting to not like her ideas on prolonged adolescence. The phrasing makes it seem like we're too slow.

LUG and BUG? I have never heard these used by someone in a queer space and am wondering how insulting this is meant to be. Guess we'll learn more when we move on to Z. The religeon section in this was ridiculous. We're too individualistic to need religion? First time I'm hearing this, sounds like you just want to sin but less obvious. More falling birth rates and no comparison of buying power then vs now. Ew

Why is it for the millenial chapter, it is phrased as declining fertility rates? Not done with my generation yet but this chapter is already leaving much to be desired. She has brushed aside economic concerns. The phrasing so far for when/if to have kids is phrased differently tha before. I do not like this shift.
