Despite the perception that religion and LGBT intolerance go hand in hand, a national survey by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) shows that statistically, the reality doesn't match up to the perception.
When we're not Wikipedia-ing random shit and then immediately talking about said shit like we've known it our whole lives, it seems we Millennials are subject to the same gender disparities in our burgeoning careers as any other age group, only perhaps more so. A recent Canadian study has found that Millennial women…
A new Pew Research Center study finds that "in spite of the dramatic gains women have made in educational attainment and labor force participation in recent decades, young women view this as a man's world." Except for many of them, it's not.
If you're anything like me (MILLENNIAL), then you're familiar with our litany of monolithic generational traits — we're all very lazy and entitled. We'd Tase our own mothers in order to get our hands on the newest Apple doodad gadgetamabob. We sext Snapchats to the Kardashians. Teen Mom. Um. Occupy Twilight. Buttsex.
Millennials are drinking more wine than the lame-os of generations past, and it's changing the face of the industry. And they said we'd never accomplish anything!
Elizabeth Wurtzel is pissed at today's youth—which she dubs "the lamest generation"—because they suck at being in their 20s. And she should know, because she's 46. Or something? Also, she finds Lena Dunham's thighs "inexcusable." Can 60 Minutes just give her Andy Rooney's vacated segment already?
Controversial opinion alert: I don't hate Fox & Friends. Even more controversial opinion alert: I sort of love it. I love it the same way I love The Three Stooges or a group of drunk clowns who won't stop hitting each other in the heads with comedically large hammers. It's a ridiculous circus enacted by performers who…
A group of 15 self-described "young professionals" in their twenties — the guys work in finance, the girls in fashion — paid $40,000 to party in an East Hampton home this summer. It was "the BEST summer of my entire life," one told us. Their landlord has a different take. "She clearly was not expecting people to party,"…
Ah, another day, another trend piece about how basically everybody between the ages of 18 and 34 is an indolent jerk unwilling or unable to fully fledge and leave the parental nest, where things like premium cable and assorted breakfast cereals can be had for the price of awkward mealtime conversations about life…
Sorry, trend-piece writers, you sweet and clueless scribes: it's really, really time to cast aside your moral panic and that blunt reed you were planning on using to inscribe upon a clay tablet a record of the strange mating habits of the college-aged millennial. "Hookup culture" is just not a thing.
Even though we’ve been hearing about the retirement fund-sapping tendencies of millennial twenty-somethings since the housing market bottomed out like a Camaro doing sixty over a school-zone speed bump, a recently-released study from the Pew Research Center suggests that, even in the post-recession zombie economy, more …
Millennials are always on the cool new trends — pickling stuff that isn't normally pickled, taking kooky Vines, wearing hats in the summer, etc. But arguably the new hottest millennial trend of all is inheriting an imploding economy and then moving in with one's parents due to crushing student loans debt.
Not content to leave all those trend pieces to its rival the Grey Lady, the Wall Street Journal joins us this week to let the world know that millennials like to text and Gchat with their moms, especially while at work. Click out of this box and get over to your email to send this link to the woman that birthed you…
I'm not a mother, but as far as I can tell, writing about motherhood is sort of like writing about feminism: There's no real right answer, it's been complicated by years of movements and counter-movements, and you're bound to elicit disapproval regardless of what your stance is. Like, obviously. I'm not telling you…
Right now, there's nothing trendier than writing trend pieces about the terribleness of millennials. But if you're a journalist on deadline hoping to jump on the shit-on-the-youths train, there are some important things you should know first.
A new study on millennials finds that guys are more comfortable with adopting women's grooming habits, wearing their fashions, and using their products—including makeup—than previous generations, meaning that the definition of "manly" is shifting away from being the polar opposite of "feminine."
Oh, dear. McDonald's — that small roadside fast food joint founded by brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald in the 1940s — is in danger of losing money because we sassy, CSA-joining millennials are no longer interested in what the chain has to offer. Basically, McDonald's has become your grandparents, calling and…
Many Millennial dudes are down with the ideas of girls ruling the world, but some aren't so sure about all the freebies women are being handed just because of their concave nether regions. After all, couldn't this all end in ladies controlling all the powerful and prestigious jobs, earning more money for doing the same …
Unpaid internships are becoming a more and more sadly prominent fixture in the life of college students and recent college grads. Oftentimes, they feature batshit insane bosses, demeaning tasks, and/or a the gradual deflation of a young individual's dreams. Sometimes they feature office pets who are better treated than …
Unpaid internships: the sad fate of scores of millennials who were foolishly led to believe that the four years they spent majoring in Victorian Studies and beer pong would prepare them for the harsh reality of entering the work force. Nearly every person who's ever had to suffer through an intern's daily unpaid tasks, …
