I have always wondered why some generations are widely recognised to last ~15 years, others 18, some others 25. What even constitutes a generation?
In: Biology
Because generations are more strongly defined by events than duration. For example, the baby boom starts 1945 because that’s when soldiers came home from WWII. And Generation X starts 1961 because that’s when the birth rate started dropping following the release of the Pill in 1960.
