>>1779833watched half-way through his video on why porn addiction is bad before clicking off. I can understand why a woman might not mention morality when trying to convince men to be anti-porn because, to be quite frank, men either don't care about the ethics of it or dig in their heels and feel more emboldened to watch porn because 'feminists R bad ', but it's clear that he's just another man who thinks men are uniquely '
victims of the modern world' or whatever

>>1779876I think this guy is especially mad that women don't want to marry and start having kids at like 19, because he looked at too many stock images of laughing young white trad families on sunny fields. They want this fantasy life of the veteran generation of riding the economic high on some chimneysweeper's solo income raising 10 children and providing them all with starter homes, while this has not been realistic in half a century.
Millenial men also enjoyed partying through their twenties and then they just chilled out and are now marrying other early 30's women and having kids, and this dumb retard is mad girls his age don't want to be unemployable baby machines (while you know he also thinks he shouldn't need to pay child support or alimony the marriage falls through)

>>1780206I also had older parents (could be my grandparents) and a lot of grandparent influence… but my family is often on their phones too now! For example my grandma has always been a very social gossipy person and now she participates in online groups and shows me shortform videos that she finds. In some ways it's nice that she is able to connect with people (she is a widow and had trouble finding irl friends) but I worry because sometimes she sees dubious health advice or political conspiracies and doesn't notice the red flags.
But yeah, even though it's more extreme in younger cohorts, a lot of older people are very online too. Their usage isn't quite the same but they have issues too.
>>1780265Yep, I had a similar experience where some guy said told me that not using social media seems like I'm just trying to be special. I guess some people don't get the point of the "if your friends all jumped off a cliff…" adage
Also there's other men who say that women who do use SM are narcissistic whores so I guess you can't win
>>1780275It's retarded that they blame women when it's literally infeasible for most people to start that life even if they want to, and they think that all women hate kids because they stay in their bubble where they never actually encounter any. I do meet young women who are highly interested in family life and am myself partial to having kids, but it doesn't change that you have to work to survive and that in the mainstream normie world, going to college is highly expected of everyone, women included. Most men his age wouldn't be able to support a wife and kids even if they found a woman who was enthusiastic about it, maybe they should work on that before complaining about tfw no tradwife?
All the trad stuff is just a larp too, most of these guys are coomers who follow a modern online ideology and only have surface level values. Actual traditional people I meet aren't doing this chronically online whining but are actually spending time with their families and communities, and detest pornography.

>>1934120I think it has to do with the leisure/athletic wear trend that started in the early 10s. It's like dressing like a lazy slob was all the rage, for men and women alike. By the mid 10s, it was normal to wear sweat pants out of the house, something I could never get behind. I think with Gen Z being teenagers in the 10s and being surrounded with that slob gym-wear style, it was hard for them to learn how to style clothes, how to match colours, i.e., how to dress nice. I have one of my mum's social studies books here from the 70s, and it has a whole 30 page chapter dedicated to how to style yourself, what colours look best together, how to make a wardrobe, how to make an outfit, etc., it was normal to be taught those things in decades past. Now we just have a bunch of people who think wearing a black t-shirt and sweatpants with boring sneakers is the only outfit that doesn't make them look "gay." It's sad.

I'm willing to believe they spend more time online than millennials have. Even though they have spent the same amount of time online as a World of Worldcraft neckbeard, they are biggest algorithm slaves and can't go outside of their comfort zone.
And speaking of wannabe chads, anyone who spends time online is considered a 'loser'. The old social system has never change. People who are comfortable with themselves won't care about getting called names because they have better things to worry about (or have actual hobbies). Zoomers on the otherhand will implode at the idea they are losers; they can hide their hurt with irony postings all they want but everyone knows deep down its true.

>>1939516I’m a zoomer (19), from my subjective experience on the younger end of the spectrum and from my friends it’s honestly because of two things: the larger focus on looks, and media. Western tv, anime, tiktok etc. It feels like teenhood has the most focus so anything beyond that feels so far away and old. I’d say that this is a cause by association - the principle isn’t looking young but
being young. But since this generation is also more lookist and self-conscious (especially with social media) those things tie together. I think in general we suffer from a peter pan syndrome of really not wanting to grow up too, I would say this is somewhat to do with the state of society as well. I have friends that started calling themselves old at 18, and every friend I have 20-22 has told me they’re old now. It’s kind of everywhere, I recently saw a meme that essentially said 23 year olds don’t have much time left - it’s played for jokes but a very pervasive idea and to the people above whatever age is considered “old” even if they try to brush it off it eventually gets under their skin and then they start to believe they are. I also know people who have begun to romanticise youth more as the result of the fetishism of men. Coquettes and Belle Delphine-adjacents. Obviously this is my anecdotal experience and I’m surrounded by chronically onlines but I do think the main cause is due to youth in general being more valuable to this generation, with the fear of ageing being an extension of that.
No. 1939569
Genz fetishize youth because that's literally everything they got going on for them and the thing that gives them cultural relevancy at the moment. They aren't young "personality wise": they got no creativity, energy or nothing new to share, that's why they fear aging because unlike millennials or older generations, they got no legacy or creations to maintain themselves relevant in the mainstream as the "cool" gen when they inevitably become older, their only personality and achievement is being young, their millennials idols feel and act younger than them. They don't got no JK Rowlings, Beyonces, etc and I'm saying this as a gen z myself, I was expecting some interesting stuff to pop out but nothing ig. Lady Gaga and Azelia Banks were at their absolute peak at just 23, most 20+ genz are crying about being "OLD!!" and arguing about situationships and gender at TikTok, sad shit tbh

Younger zoomers are in for such a rough awakening and honestly, they deserve it, this is insanity.
Of course every kid suffers from thinking of 30 as super mature and of 60 as close to dying but even as a dumb (pre)teen I never thought of somebody that age as oldlooking because I always saw gorgeous 40+ actresses on tv. It also sounds as if they look down on everybody over a certain age as "lame" which is also crazy because they're likely broke and have nothing going for themselves while actual adults got money and nice things, how can you feel so superior based on nothing but your year of birth?
At the end of the day it all comes down to a total lack of respect, how will they ever keep a proper job, there's no way they accept orders from higherups…

>>1961263Agreed and that's coming from an elder zoomer. They will have a rude awakening the moment they finish highschool or college and get to the boogeyman age of 25 (or even 20 like some of them think already).
>It also sounds as if they look down on everybody over a certain age as "lame"They do, I interacted with some of them and it's bollocks. I was a dumb teen not too long ago, but I never considered people over the age of 23 old like they do. Or how they compliment someone who seems younger to them when that someone just look their age as if after 20, you turn into dust.
I firmly believe that TikTok and the not-so-sublte pedo culture of the last few years rotted their brains beyond repair. This applies to some of my peers too - they are already panicking of turning 25 this year and "officially" being an adult (but this particular type only lives from middle school and highschool nostalgia)
>how will they ever keep a proper job, there's no way they accept orders from higherups…This usually is the pattern of the "OMG, I'm turning 20 I'm so old hahaha" - they had less authority from their parents growing up (and I mean it in the least boomer way possible) and were allowed to do more than the elder zoomers. Basically, a lot of them do a lot of things in their teens that a young adult would've been able to do years ago like engaging in (expensive) consumerism with their parents' money, leaving their home and even town for days for example and their parents being chill about it and when they reach 20, they get bored with it all and wallow about being old and crippled or some shit.
Although I love how zoomers are calling out shit bosses and leave that shitty job, unlike our parents who endured such a workplace for almost nothing.

Zoomers are the only motherfuckers I ever saw and continue to see actually complaining about being past eighteen and in their 20s, worrying about being "old". Seriously. Of all generations, it really seems to be only zoomers that have a problem with not being "barely legal" anymore. It's like they're afraid of literally growing up. They're trying to make 20 the new 40. They will finally become the legal age to drink alcohol, and immediately think their lives are "over" and "doomed to be boring now". Every other generation would've been partying and bragging about turning twenty one, but not zoomers apparently. They're too busy complaining about not wearing diapers anymore. You know what, maybe this is why they're apparently aging faster than millenials, zoomers just don't know how to be happy with themselves. Sometimes I think maybe the previous generations are being too harsh on zoomers when they bully them, but then I see a zoomer post some twitter shit like "I just turned 20 today and I feel so old", and that's where I feel okay with millennials laughing at them. 'Cause what the fuck is wrong with zoomers?

Activities that use to be a fun part of adult life like going out with friends, bar hopping, road trips, etc are just becoming overpriced luxuries. and it's even worse since "not having a nice car, home, and everything else by 30 makes you a loser and failure" is still pushed with no regards with the fact the economy made this only a dream for most younger generations

>>2049182Fellow zoomer here (20), and I partly agree with what
>>2049192 said (though I think it’s a good thing that people are sharing and making money off their hobbies). I feel “old” now because I’ve spent the past few years as a depressed Internet addict, and have been moving forward in age while staying in the same slump mentally.
I think Twitter may be conveying a skewed idea of how our generation feels. The young people posting about being “old” are likely similar to how I described myself above: sad people sitting online being painfully aware that they’re wasting their youth. Online communities are the realm of depressed shut-ins trying to retreat into nostalgia.
If you were to talk to happy zoomers having fun in a public place, maybe they would have a different sentiment. Take, for example, my younger brother, who has a big group of friends he regularly hangs out and goes places with.

Don't say where you went to school or where you live or where you are at the moment, even if it's something generic like 'I'm out of the country' or 'I'm eating at McDonald's near work'. Don't give out information about your job or what it entails, unless you're on LinkedIn, it's easy to find out what you do and where you work even with minimal information. Don't post real time updates, even something as simple as posting a photo of your nails can make you identifiable. Never post about places near you, including landmarks, especially if you add extra information, like 'I hate driving to Costco because there's always a ton of traffic when school ends' because that tells people 1) that you live close to a Costco, 2) that it's near a school which means they can pinpoint which Costco you go to, and 3) that you can be found there, probably alone, after school ends on a weekday.
Call me paranoid if you like, but I know that this shit got people doxed before social media really took off, and these days you have kids who publicly dox random strangers for funsies and share the information with their hundreds of thousands of followers. There are a lot of lunatics who spend their whole lives taunting women they've never met and driving them to suicide. There are a lot of retarded tweens drunk on the power of having 400 followers who will do anything to power trip.

Every day were always used as a scapegoat for everything they hate in the world, supposedly we’re lazy and expect things to come out of a magical hat but then when we don’t do anything and become passive and disinterested in anything we should have fought for futures or something. It’s honestly ridiculous, zoomer hate makes me smile because I love seeing a bunch of shitty bitter oldfags seethe.

The norm being a good wagie. Notice how the criteria for all illnesses includes "if it interferes in daily life", the daily life being spending 8 hrs a day making money for shareholders.
To drive in that capitalism is the main problem, notice how there exists such a thing as "maladaptive daydreaming" (wtf???) where they say you shouldn't be a dreamer because it brings nobody any money, but parasocial relationships are not officially a mental illness (even though it's obviously a maladaptive bond) because it brings several industries a ton of cash.

Top kek at my fellow zoomers nlogging the fuck out of this thread. I do think a lot of you are over generalising on some fronts but I enjoy this thread for the purpose of self reflection. Personally it's hard to tell if something is a common experience for all generations or a symptom of a given period and generation. For example, cognitive dissonance or general disassociation is so pervasive amongst my peers it's creepy, though it's easy to spot in others I may very well miss it in myself. A lot of my college friends act like this, on the surface they seem normal but they're hiding insane coke addiction or alcoholism and are deeply unhappy with themselves and their lives, unable to make choices for themselves due to succumbing to outside pressure, usually parents, and act out in the dangerous adult ways that are now more readily available mainly drug and drink and sex as if to prove how adult and independent they are.

I think Gen Z’s thing where they view being like 20-25 as old and being afraid of aging is because they sort of had it drilled into their heads that after 21 there’s basically nothing valuable about them anymore, that’s also why there’s this rush to get married so young to the point of almost being trad, because getting married in your 30s or 40s is seen as too late for you to find love. It’s also this nihilistic view many of them take, “Fuck it, I’m gonna die, so is everyone and everything else I know, no one will care and all my dreams, hopes, wants, and personal development are for nothing so I may as well just sit around and wait to die” and that attitude is why we have things like 14 year olds on TikTok teaching how apply anti aging cream, because they’re in denial of their own aging and death so they’re trying to pretend it won’t be there. That’s also why the whole reality shifting thing got big, just another attempt to escape from sad reality and go to your dream world in Harry Potter or wherever

It's irritating that the parents didn't put a stop to it because they think that it's cute how young girls are now getting a headstart on being
victims of beauty industry consoomerism. I'm a millennial and I remember thinking I was old at 21 because even back the idea that 18 is some magical age where you transition into a full fledged adult and was prevalent. At the same time I do think people in general were more lenient about being able to enjoy certain hobbies and fashions without being called an old hag by 25 (not saying that it didn't happen because it still did, but it's not as bad as it is today with all the "ummm excuse me, i'm a LITERAL CHILD" that 18 year olds like to pull when you try to hold them accountable lol).

And also the standards have gotten much higher for what they look like.

This isn't really zoomer hate, but I've noticed that the older zoomers think they're the first generation to hate working.

Also this might be more of a cultural thing, but it's insane to me how many consider getting food delivery almost daily something that's the baseline, and not the luxury it is. Same for going on vacation/holidays. But I'm also from a low middle class family so that's probably part of it too. Everyone should be able to dine out now and then, but that's also always been something special for me growing up, not something that was done more than once or twice a year.

Not exclusive to zoomers but I really hate the whole "spreading awareness" shit that's rampant in burger zoomers. Not to sound like an
abusive boomer but some of them really cannot take a joke and have no identity so they vicariously live through defending communities who didn't need their defense to begin with. Eg some streamer made a COVID joke 4 years ago that was apparently insensitive to Asians? Burger zoomers everywhere screeching about it while countless Asians reply they found it funny/not offensive and then the zoomers will attack them too saying they're pick-mes and self-hating. If you really cared for COVID issues maybe do something about it, like pay for strangers' vaccines or medical bills from acquiring COVID or something that actually helps people. Oh you can't? Then shut the hell up about your "awareness". You think likes, tweets and pfps help?

Ladies, look out for expired, low quality sperm. Date younger men if necessary. Modern men's sperm count has been decreasing over the years, and the ones they've got left are basically deformed and swimming sideways if they swim at all.
Don't reproduce with a scrote who's past 35. Hell even 30 may be too late for them (see pic related). His sperm has expired. It's a life sentence for your kids, you are gonna produce some deeply autistic kids at best and some literal retards at worst. This is part of the reason why zoomers are so fucked up and slow: many of them had older fathers cause gen Xrs and millennial moids refused to start a family until found themselves in their mid 30s when they realized they were going to die alone. Don't fall for this psyop, calling a pregnant 35 year old woman a "geriatric pregnancy" is a literal meme (that is not even an honest way of addressing a woman on that age, since the word geriatric refers to an actual elderly person) created and pushed by projecting pedo doctors during the last century that female doctors tried to fight against but got silenced. All while conveniently hiding the whole issue going on with the decay of modern men's sperm.
All men say about women, fertility and age is anything but projection and cope, as everything going on with men is.

>>2273137I've learned about human development biology and studied biomedical science both are bad for fertility and the health of offspring. Elderly paternal age is associated with schizophrenia and autism, elderly maternal age; down syndrome and the risk of stillbirth. A dramatic age gap between paternal and maternal ages is correlated with stillbirth and premature births. A major problem with female reproduction is the number of gametes diminishes severely over time due to menses whereas males doesn't at the same rate but the male gamete has issues with chemotaxis, thermotaxis and capacitation which are the main drivers of fertilization. Another thing to consider is that the male gamete is motile and energy expending while the females are energy retaining and stationary so the mutation rate is influenced by this factor too. Cell differentiation and turnover probably has an influence on the mutation rate of sperm too. Other factors are sperm competition. I don't know much about the male "infertility crisis" but it sounds like bullshit. "Fertility" is declining in all developed countries because for the first time in human history women have a slither of human rights, and the main reason being that they can't afford it. There is no deep reason, and its not a infertility crisis in women, its a "choice of human rights crisis". Women just can't afford to have kids and the global south is catching up. Women choosing not to have kids is not a crisis. The uterus can incubate eggs and the uteruses of older women 40-50s pre-menopause are capable of a healthy pregnancy but you'd need egg donors and there's likely more complications resulting from this. It still bares mentioning since the reproductive limit of women is based around the finite and diminishing number of gametes, not the apparatus for gestation itself.
>>2273145I don't agree with calling a woman over 35 "geriatric" due to mainstream pedo-culture but pregnancy is not good period, and women are more at risk for breast cancer from pregnancy, cervical cancer from STIs and ovarian cancer from birth control. The rate of say prostate cancer is not comparable to the commonality of breast cancer.

I don't even see 17-20 year olds trying to recreate scene looks besides like 10 terminally online kids. And there was absolutely a large music scene where scene kids typically listened to the same bands that they bonded over; mostly emo and metalcore. Bands like BOTDF, Escape the Fate, Suicide Silence, Sleeping with Sirens, Asking Alexandria, Never Shout Never, etc. This was the point of subcultures, everyone having something in common that they liked and wanted to signal it to others to find a community. This no longer exists today. Scene kids were adjacent to emos just a more fun, colorful version so self harm was still very big back then. These are outcast kids who ended up participating in genuine counterculture, after all.

And everything right now is unfortunately tied to politics.
> most of their parents are just shitty and never should have had kids in the first place.Also agreed, most of them were either very controlling of their kids or very neglectful, no in between (not a burger tho, but I don’t think there are huge differences). A good chunk of gen X women are pickmes and gen X moids are either mentally absent from the family or even left their families to be whores their entire lives.
I also noticed that they live vicariously through their kids (older gens did that too, but I think it’s worse in gen x-ers) and their kids were usually trophies to flex with when relatives and friends visited so they can validate their existence kek. In that sense, things like creativity and stepping out of line slightly was punished especially by the controlling “flavor” of gen x-ers. Can’t blame them tho, they had it worse in that regard, but man…
As for zoomers, I don’t know what they can hold onto anymore to be honest, feels like the world is crumbling at the hands of rich old farts and we can’t do much about it except for surviving (which gets harder day by day) and form some type of community but zoomers as a gen are so divided so it’s pretty hard and idk at this point.
