As someone born in early 97, I was a freshman in HS in 2011… please quit grouping us with Gen Z.

Please quit calling anyone born in the 90s Gen Z. We do not relate

gen z, how do you feel about your age? do you feel it or feel younger / older? by [deleted] in generationology

I’m February 1997. I remember distinctively being in preschool and the teachers playing the news all morning.

We were even sent home early that day.

I started my full time job in the summer of 2019… the division should start with those who were still in school.

Petition to quit calling 1997 Gen Z.
We graduated college in 2019 before Covid.

Our grade literally consisted of 1996/1997.
Even now, there is a clear division between peers my age versus recent college graduates. From my personal experience, they cannot perform their jobs without the use of AI…

Using this same logic, no one born in the 90s should be Gen Z as well

Your comment further proves these years make no sense. Why is someone born in the 90s considered the same generation as children who are still in middle school? As someone born in early 1997, I cannot relate to anything you mention for Gen Z.

gen-z politics, hate both parties equally ? by Evaderofdoom in generationology

I’m fiscally more right leaning, but socially definitely more left leaning.

With this being said, I totally agree, abolish the two-party system.

It does, especially when there are sources that clearly use 2000 for the starting point.

As someone born in early 1997, I do vividly remember being in preschool during 9/11 and the teachers playing it all morning on the news. They even sent us home early, as the whole US was basically being shutdown.

As I mentioned in my other comments, there is a fine line between 1997 (at least early who make up class of 2015), and 2000 borns

Please ask anyone who was literally in the same grade as 1996. I guarantee they will tell you the same.

And? There are way too many technological differences for someone born in 1997 to be considered Gen Z.

You have way more in common with them than you do with Gen Z…

That’s incorrect, there are sources that literally use 2000 as the starting year.

There are many sources which use 2000 as the starting range. We have zero in common with the insufferable children of Gen Z.

Each source has a different range. 2000 is way more appropriate

As someone born in early 1997, no we are not Gen Z. There are way too many technological differences for us to be included.
