The term "Generation X". What does the "X" stand for and why does the term itself even exist? Is this a "politically correct" thing now that we have to label all generations so we don't hurt somebody's feelings by that generation not having a name..... like the babyboomers have. At least the term "babyboomers" makes sense. And I believe the babyboomers is the only generation to have a name.
