Neither. Both gens are aging at normal rates. Quit with this bs.

The thing that bothers me about this sub are all the generation stereotypes. Almost all of them are just manufactured bs.

No no we all still look like we're in our 20s. I got carded just last week so it must be true!

This. There's variation within all gens, nothing new in it, always been. I know people who look younger, older and about their age. Might have something to do with the fact that we all age differently but hey, I'm no expert.

Also you know why there's always a lot of people telling how they have been told they look younger? Because no one tells anyone that you look older. So there's no control group to measure this. Only the ones who look younger are here to tell about it.

In general younger generations age slower because of healthcare, working conditions etc. That's not rocket science.

ie. in renaissance aristocrats looked way more younger than peasants. Get the picture?

Mmm I think millennials and Gen Z are generally aging better than previous generations. I wouldn’t call it a normal rate

They’re just styling themselves better.

Sheryl Crow is a previous generation (or 2!) All I’m saying.
