      There's are cultural difference between those born between 1965-1970 and the rest of Gen-X. I liked a comment posted on Reddit that said that the border between one side of Gen-X and the other was marked by bicycle seats. Banana on one side and BMX on the other.

      Maybe so. Am not saying I agree with or endorse this terminology.

      Just that I want to know what people are meant when these terms are used. And they are used a lot.

      The boundaries are all rather arbitrary, but there is a grain of truth to some of the analysis.

        You can certainly look at broad generalizations regarding material circumstances unique to a generational cohort

      Not really. People's formative experiences do have a big impact on their world view. The generations are broken up into groups that experienced very different things as they were coming of age.
