Sociologist Millennial Gets On Twitter To Explain A Lot About Millennials And Their Self-Denial About Their Age

However, whether millennials are battling Baby Boomers or just getting the short end of the stick, there's certainly no denying that there is a lot to be said about their place in the world. While some millennials have been in their 30s for a few years now, others are quickly approaching this social milestone, which is presenting entirely new and fascinating conversations about social awareness, millennials, and "getting old."

Dr. Sunny Moraine is a sociologist and author from Washington, DC, who came to the defense of millennials and our perception of age after Ross Enamait, a professional boxing coach and entrepreneur, said that millennials should "stop complaining" about how they are getting old and how "it's depressing."

This is something far too many of us simply don't have, and there is no reasonable way to achieve it either.

Is there an age at which you can't enjoy something? What??

That's simply not the point.

Same as the majority of us millennials.

Is there anyone more infantilized in the last 20 years than millennials? Gen Z is at least about to give us a run for the prize.

When people discuss us, it's not often they seem to know who they're even discussing.

You're missing the point of the actual complaint.

Crisis of different sorts.

"Middle Age"

Living through some sh*t.

Retirement is about to become an outdated concept.

This is radical, y'all.

Nothing to argue with when you're dropping facts, Dr. Sunny!
