Yeah, but who brought in rock-n-roll and the sexual revolution? :p

The Silent Generation. Even the youngest of the Beatles was born before the end of WWII, which is the start date for the Baby Boom Generation.

I think they were a little too young to have much
to do with sex, even for future rock stars. Things
didn't get booming until they were of the booming
age, and that is the 1960s.

The Silent Generation was from 1925 to 1943. That gives them an are range of 17 to 35 at 1960 and 27 to 45 by 1970. They were the majority of the college age students during that time frame and I think were plenty old enough to be having wild sexy times in the 1960s. And if we want to get really pedantic, the first sexual revolution occurred with the Lost Generation in the 1920s with things like petting parties and making out in automobiles.

The Boomers living it up party period really did not get happening until the 1970s and 1980.

I see your point, but I think that you must know
that is not the way most people think of it, right?
You may be right in a pedantic sense, but most
people say the '60s is a boomers' decade, which
is the decade of birth control and 'free love' - of
drugs, sex, and rock and roll!

But the Millenials felt *entitled* to those weapons!

More victims of Affluenza!

That's all right. Generation X and the Millenials will be patient.
Boomers won't live forever.

Patience is not part of their vocabulary.


What do we want?
Enlightenment!
When do we want it?
Now!

Mmm-hmm. Patience is not a part of vocabulary of my generation. Or the one below me. Sure.
