You are technically a Millennial or Xennial. I’m 48 will be 49 in December. I’m last year GenX or Xennial
Lashon_Von_Ricks@reddit
You think the cut-off year for Gen X is 1977?
iloveScotch21@reddit
No the start of Xennial is 1977.
Roxygirl40@reddit
That’s a microgen.
Roxygirl40@reddit
This is the fight that never ends. Cut off is 1980 (and occasionally 1981 if being generous). So 46 this year is the youngest.
iloveScotch21@reddit
OP is 45 I’m right 1981 born, they are a Millennial. Downvote me all you want. Sources

Roxygirl40@reddit
Compliance. Turning 46 in July in 2026 means they were born in 1980, which is the cut off for Gen X. Clearly you are a millennial since you can’t do math.
Away-Equipment4869@reddit (OP)
I hate how everyone says something different about the start and cut off of gen x lol

80’s child of divorce. I got my father in my house. Half blind and homebound, my mother 600 miles away with a broken femur for the past month, still in rehab, and uncle Joe in rehab the past 3 years. One more and i can have the whole opening scene to Charlie and the Chocolate factory in my living room soon. I’m still fit enough to do century bike rides every summer. But now I can feel my pulse in my legs. So there’s that
mettaCA@reddit
Make sure your mom gets the physical therapy she needs. The death rate within the first 12 months after a break for an elderly person is around 50%. I have a 92 year old neighbor that broke hers over 2 years ago and she is doing okay.

Yep... Before they switched up the generation lists I was considered Gen x but now I'm the first year in of millennial... 44 and in 6 weeks 45
MossCoveredMetal@reddit
I too am born in '81. I don't feel anything in common with millennials, and feel way more at home among Gen X.
stormstormsmilez@reddit
I actually feel connected with both weirdly... I grew up the typical latch key kid style... I walked to and from school since the second week of kindergarten w then the next year I was responsible for getting my sister to and from school when she started kindergarten... But I absolutely grew up on computers too starting with computer lab once a week for basic stuff and computer games, then the first few iterations of the Internet all the way till now...

Rowan_Productions@reddit
48…. I don’t buy into the hard defined generational years. A lot depends on where you grew up imo. I was a mid-west kid so it was still like the 70s while growing up in the 80s in a lot of way. There’s some overlap for sure.

My youngest sister is 49–7.5 years younger —and we weren’t that close growing up. She was still in elementary school when I was in high school. I never thought of her as Gen X. But now I do, we have more in common than different. She married a xennial 5 year younger than her, which was weird at first, but I like EDM music too, so we have things to talk about 😂
