Very few 17-year-olds are writing cover stories for vaunted national magazines. Traditionally (though not exclusively), older generations have the power and the platform to dissect the young. So while millennials and previous generations had to suffer through general critiques of everything they were doing wrong - whether killing casual dining or doing the waltz - Gen Z might be the best suited to finally talk back to its elders.
Gen Z, though, is arguably the first generation to have always had the internet. "The developmental task of young people is to figure out who they are," said Pamela Rutledge, director of the Media Psychology Research Center, a nonprofit that studies media technologies and their effects.

In one corner: Gen Z (those born from around 1997 to the early 2010s). These two seemingly arbitrary style choices are the latest distillation of something that's been taking place since the beginning of time: generational warfare. If the issue of side parts versus middle parts - or whether skinny jeans are cool - means nothing to you, be warned. After working some unspecified foam into her hair, blow drying, and - most importantly - moving the part of her hair to the center of her head, TikToker looks right into her camera and says, "Are you happy now? Now stop telling me I look like your mom."
