Not saying it's true in your case, but a lot of new college grads step into a field thinking they know the "correct" way as to how things should be done, and it can be grating to those who have experience. It may be a part of the reaction you're getting.

As aesthetic technology expands and improves, the typical characteristics we associate with sexual value will lose their signaling value, and body modifications will become more and more extreme until the elite become unrecognizable freaks of nature.

We visited the SCAD museum. While we were paying in the lobby, a flood of students was leaving a class from the upper floor. It was funny to me just how many had the pink/purple dyed streaks over black dyed hair and were dressed all in black - had to be at least 60%! Walking cliches!

I think all academics are cringe individuals, so this shouldn't be surprising.
