What generation am I? I was born in 1983, I thought I was Generation X but I guess that only goes to 1981.

If gen-x goes through 1981, then I'm officially a gen-x'er hmm, damn.

last I heard, gen-x ended at 1979. Damn, I don't want to be a gen-x'er.

<< Born during a baby bulge that demographers locate between 1979 and 1994, they are as young as five and as old as 20, with the largest slice still a decade away from adolescence. And at 60 million strong, more than three times the size of Generation X, they're the biggest thing to hit the American scene since the 72 million baby boomers. Still too young to have forged a name for themselves, they go by a host of taglines: Generation Y, Echo Boomers, or Millennium Generation. >>



I don't see how they can put us up to 1994. I am going to have a totally different out look of childhhod than someone born in 1994.
