Generation X - encyclopedia article about Generation X. (3706 words) |
 | Generation X in its conception is originally a western concept, although Japan Japan (Japanese: 日本, Nihon or Nippon) is a country on the western edge of the Pacific Ocean. |
 | Generation Y, the coinciding generation of this time, develops a sub-culture from common feelings of isolation and helplessnes that spring from the combination of Generation X values permeating pop culture and growing up during a high divorce rate, outwardly showing itself primarily in the popularity of the musical genre Emo. |
 | Generation X has survived a hurried childhood of divorce, latchkeys, space shuttle explosions (primarily in the United States), open classrooms, widespread political corruption, inflation and recession, post-Vietnam national malaise, environmental disaster, the Islamic Revolution (in Iran), devil-child movies, and a shift from "G" to "R" ratings (which had little effect outside the United States). |
