I love the word youngsters. And they do believe strange things – like the appropriateness of putting wet towels in the hamper.
Every generation seems to emphasize a few issues about which they will be more “open minded” than their parents. Sex, sexism, racism, transgender issues etc. are all issues some (not all) people have used over the years as badges of one generation or another. Sometimes I feel like groups get used as a tool by others to prove the others’ “right” way of thinking. Kind of like celebrities used to adopt diseases to “care” about so they would appear empathic.
As the old saying goes – I value more a kind word spoken close to my ear.
