How does your life in your 20s differ from the life your father (or any older male family member you respect) had during their 20s?

What social changes made their own young adulthood so much more desirable than your own?

My dad in his 20's bought a convertible with money he saved working as a lifeguard one summer and drove around the country in it meeting girls.
I worked last summer to pay for my internet for the fall semester.

By around this time, my father had just gotten married and I was soon to be born. Weird to think about it. I feel half the man he was by this age, miles away from being a capable parent.

My dad is a boomer. He grew up on a farm. His parents neared bankruptcy a few times due to bad harvests and crop prices. At 18, he moved to the city to go to university. Got two degrees, taught for two years, worked at a couple non-profits, dabbled in real estate. Married at 23, first kid at 26, had me at 29, and two more after that. Purchased a home for about $85000 in the late eighties. Five years later, was paying something like 15% interest on the mortgage. Mom stopped working and finished her MBA in between the third and fourth child. She had to sell some raw land she'd inherited to keep the family afloat. Neither of them bought a new car until their forties. Of their children, two are well-educated, the other two dropped out (me and my older sister) but we're all independent.

Me, on the other hand: moved out at 20, parents bailed me out on rent two or three times the first year and paid half my tuition. I eventually dropped out and got a job that I've had for about eight years. Make good money but no girlfriend, wife, or children. Turn thirty in a few months.

This is why I stand up for boomers in the boomer hate threads. The two boomers I know best worked hard and struggled for decades before they reached financial security.

Why haven't you gotten married and had kids yet, in your opinion? Is it harder to secure a mate these days?

Not much. We both work at grocery stores/construction jobs and were both seeking similar degrees (his economics, mine law)

Observant Catholics. Playfully racist. Both Scitzo (I’ve read his college notes from 75 and there basically my babblings)

Lmao devalued labor is great

No. I'm a closeted faggot. Still trying to figure out how to go about marriage and children, because I do want to be a father. Nothing to do with my parents: they created a great family environment where unity, tradition, and responsible were important values.

I'd argue that it's EASIER to secure a mate, but a good one...that challenge remains the same as ever. You don't know until you take the leap, and sometimes you don't survive the leap unfortunately.

Are you an actual closeted homosexual, or is this a joke I'm not getting?

Either way good luck lad.

An actual closeted homosexual. Not a joke, it's just pathetic. But I can't change it.

Thanks bud.

this really says a lot about our society.....
