Strauss & Howe, the social historians known for pioneering generational theory[1], would say that Gen X (the 13th generation) and Gen Y (the millennial generation) each have the traits of their corresponding generational archetypes. Generation X is generally used to refer to people born in the 60s and 70s. According to Strauss & Howe, it is a Nomad generation, an archetype they share with the Lost Generation of the 1890s and 1900s. Both generations are characterized by a disaffected attitude and general disdain for everything that came before.
Generation Y: Generation Y. You guessed it, Generation Y came after Generation X. Generation Y covers people born between the 1980âs and the year 2000, and these individuals are sometimes referred to as Gen Y, the Millennial Generation, or simply Millennials.eneration Z: Generation Z is the generation of children born after the Year 2000. They are the children of Generation X and Generation Y. To be fair we donât know a whole lot about the character traits of Generation Z, because they havenât been on the earth for very long yet.
