1. I saw a chart on the web that proves that the baby bust really ended in ’77 (it had a list of the annual birthrate for each year of the late 20th century). It showed 3.3 million births for that year and 3.1m for ’76.
2. Those born in ’77 just came of age when the web first became available to the general public in ’95, hence the term “net generation” or another name for the millenials.
3. Studies have shown that the late – ’70s babies were included in the 66 – 32 voting margin in favor of Obama, proving that they have very similar attitudes to those born in the ’80s.

However, lately my opinion on this has changed. I now believe that ANYONE can be a millenial if he/she is tech – savvy, open – minded to ALL kinds of diversity, and is into the latest music and entertainment. Just like a 20 – year – old can be a baby boomer if she does not have a computer, is only open to racial diversity, and likes the Beatles. I say, screw the labels and let everyone pick their generation that best fits in with their CHARACTERISTICS.
