If she was dating millennial men when millennials were in their 20s she’d probably complain about PUA techniques being used against her.
Comment on Gen Z males twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands

Yeah that checks out. My Gen z girlfriend has said as much. She’s into women and “men who are at least old enough to remember 9/11 clearly.”
The Gen Z men she has dated were “rude, cruel, and more interested in controlling me.”

What is PUA?

Power Utility Application. “Electrify your woman with this 1 easy trick” bs stuff.

The difference in frequency of these sexist attitudes in gen z men compared with millennials was at most 5%. I believe your girlfriend’s experience but I don’t think it has much relevance to this study.

That’s almost a litmus test for the Millennial/Gen Z border (for the US at least). Usually remembering 9/11 means you’re more on the Millennial side. Though generations are fuzzy and ill-defined.

For me, it’s if they can remember a world without Pokemon

I disagree, that puts the last few years of Millennials into Gen Z though. That puts me into Gen Z and I’m a few years before the cutoff.

If you can’t remember a world before Pokemon than you can’t understand how amazing Pokemon truly are

I would like to go back to a world without Pokemon.
