well, i din't mean to imply that the problem lies with us. the "deficiency" is in reference to the meetings, which are low in numbers of us under 35s. it's not as much a difference of our generation over others, but that people are separated from others by the age in which we are born. time dictates where we are in our careers, social habits and other explorations. plus, it affects our sensibilities, tolerances and the shared entertainment space. so naturally, when a group shares some of these common threads, it makes exploring connections easier.

but sure, there's an aspect to the situation that feels like resistance. that could also be due to uncertainty, a very common feeling amongst the young. which is another good reason for under-35 meetings. at least if you know most everyone else in the group is uncertain, too, you might feel a little bit better.
