  • Late Gen X / early Millennial is called a Xennial. We’re characterized as having been born in a largely analog world and coming of age as consumer technology became more prevalent. I think it informally encompasses 1977-1983.

    I was born in '81 and graduated high school in '99. I grew up hearing that I was Gen X, the slacker generation, the whatever generation, the generation where trying was uncool. And that’s exactly the experience I had. I was an adult before I ever heard the term ‘millennial’ and I don’t identify with it at all, though technically I’m on the cusp. Xennial does seem to fit though.










  • It’s not, but if you actually need a rebuttal, let’s go:

    - insecure pose is related to its brethren of other insecure poses, such as the peace sign ✌️😉✌️, tongue sticking out😜, duck lips😙

    What about this pose is in any way insecure? She is confidently giving the finger to those who don’t respect consent.

    - there is this weird lust for such poses

    This is your own opinion and not substantiated by anything here as far as I can see.

    - the brand clothing indicating commodity fetishism aka lust

    There’s nothing wrong with people liking brand-name clothes. You personally may have a beef with it but calling it ‘lust’ is not justified by anything in the image.

    - the coffee indicating lack of self control and gluttony/lust aka addiction

    Again with the ‘lust’? Coffee is such a normal thing. There’s nothing here to indicate she’s addicted, or a glutton, or in any way out of control. You’re reading an insane amount into this simple drawing.

    - expectation for others to read your mind when speaking indirectly, vaguely, or with innuendo

    It’s not an expectation. She’s spelling out exactly the ways in which people try to ignore a woman’s lack of consent.

    - closed-mindedness to the world of opportinity

    Opportunity to what, have sex she doesn’t want to have? Are you serious right now?

    - the sublte implication of superiority

    Substantiate this please, because again, there’s nothing in the image supporting this claim.

    - the callous disregard for the other person

    You mean the person who’s callously disregarding her by ignoring the very clear lack of consent? Because that’s the type of person this image is aimed at.

    - the lack of empathy

    Same comment as above. Who exactly does she owe empathy?

    - the excessive self-conciet and pride in oneself

    Again, totally unsubstantiated in the image. She’s allowed to be proud of herself just like anybody else, but there’s nothing excessive here.

    You’ve read a lot of nonsense into this image. Maybe have a think about why that is.
