As you may have been able to tell from some of my blog posts, social generations and social generational differences are things that really interest me. I love the idea of looking at social, political, technological, and global changes through the lens of subsets of the population based on when they were born, raised, and started families.

Thus, I was very excited to stumble upon the “Generationology” subreddit a few days ago. This subreddit contains a wide variety of posts regarding different social generations, including nostalgia-based posts, discussions about differing attitudes across generations, divisions within generations (e.g., early-, mid-, and late-Millennials), different generational vibes or “cores” (e.g., “Millennial core”), ponderings about future generations, etc.

It’s super interesting, though I’d love if there were to be a survey to see what generations are most represented by the posters in the subreddit (there’s probably been one of these in the past, but I can’t find it).

Check it out!
