In reality, our generation is very diverse. But for many of us, the challenges brought by overturning traditions are very real, as comforts like the stability of working your way up in one company (or even one industry) for decades becomes a relic of days past.

Pepper Schwartz: Call me lucky, at tail end of greatest generation For me, it's a tale of two cities. One city is heterosexual, born between 1.

The one that saw a whole generation of promising young men annihilated. These were the plague years of HIV/AIDS in the 1.
