Currently there are a lot of both outdated and outright incorrect information about each generation. For example, Millennials are portrayed as young, colourful and weird people, while in reality these traits are those of Gen Z. To fix this and many other misconceptions about generations I decided to write a short description on what average member of each generation currently looks like.
Silent Generation (aged 80 and older) - Few of them left and most of them are not just old but also very frail, they struggle to walk and such. At this age their bodies are typically deformed and either very skinny or very short. Typical age traits such as wrinkles and white/grey hair are also present.
Boomers (aged 61 to 80) - Your typical retiree or soon to be retiree. There are plenty of them. All have white or gray hair. They often hide their age behind thick sunglasses to appear younger than what they really are. Generally, sunglasses are unusually popular among this generation. Nonetheless behind these sunglasses one can find wrinkled face. Unlike Silent generation these guys have normal size bodies and visible signs of age are not as apparent. However, if you pay close attention, you may notice that they are weaker and frailer than initially apparent. They walk slow and have hard time with stairs. These traits are certainly more pronounced in older boomers who are older than 70, but one can notice them in those who are still in their 60s.
Gen W (early Gen X) (aged 61 to 52) - They often have white/grey hair but otherwise do not show any signs of ageing and are full of energy. They are rich and all over bars, restaurants and sport games. They have confident attitude, act like they own the game and are either on the prowl for young women or going out with their families. They have conservative dad vibe about them and often sprout conservative views. They and boomers are the reason things are shit now.
Xennilas (late Gen X) (aged 51 to 42) - Older version of adult: still no white hair but some wrinkles and facial features but face generally does not look old. You can find these guys in shopping malls and such, some have spouses/gfs but typically no children. They typically wear smart casual clothes and look. They typically have shit together but not as much money to splurge as Gen W so they are doing it modest. Some possibly share interest in video games and anime with Millennials below.
Millennials (aged 41 to 30) - Younger version of adult that gives much older look and feel than what they biologically are. As hard to find as ninjas, typically dressed casually without the smart part. They are typically loners with rather angsty look, wrinkled face and defiant look. Most stay home and chronically online but sometimes you can see them in the wild for one or another reason. Half of them took their lives after financial crisis and the other half plot revenge on boomers and society for that betrayal. Most are into anime and video games but do not show that openly. They play so called boomer shooters and other old games they grew up with. Few younger Millennials are like Gen Z below.
Gen Z (aged 30 to 18~13) - They are either a tattooed gym monster with wife and children or a colourful leftie without these. Both probably prone to do drugs or such. They are all over the place no matter where you go. They are loud and stand out. They current teens and young adults.
Gen Alpha (aged younger than 18~13) - Current kids and young teens. Wild bunch that just break shit for no reason, will probably end up in prisons.
And that is what different generations are currently like.
