bu donemin sirf hatunlari degil ayni zamanda erkekleri de yaygin olarak evlenmemeyi ya da gec evlenmeyi savunurlar. sosyologlara gore bunun sebebi ise buyurken iliskilerin ne kadar cabuk zedelendigine ve surekliliklerini yitirdigine sahit olmalaridir, bu sahitligin getirdigi ise bir cok iliskiye kuskuyla yaklasma tavridir.
zamanında internette bu konuda bulduğum bir manifesto... şu şekilde kendisi.
we are but curious explorers. we are the new generation. those that came before us fear us. they have labeled us generation x, and generation y, as they could not figure us out. our parents do not understand our true nature. it is an evolution of mind, born in a digital nursery and encouraged by those that either wished to help us, or those that wish to destroy us. we are the future. we have come to claim it.

"tarihsel yetersiz doz: hiçbir önemli olayın meydana gelmediği bir zaman diliminde yaşamak. belli başlı semptomları; gazete, dergi ve tv haberleri bağımlılığı." ve benzeri incelikte tanımlar içeren güzide bir eser. *
"when someone tells you they've just bought a house, they might as well tell you they no longer have a personality. you can immediately assume so may things: that they're locked into jobs they hate; that they're broke; that they spend every night watching videos; that they're fifteen pounds overweight; that they no longer listen to new ideas. it's profoundly depressing. and the worst part of it is that people in their houses don't even like where they're living. what few moments they possess are those gleaned from dreams of upgrading"
"you see, when you're middle class, you have to live with the fact that history will ignore you. you have to live with the fact that history can never champion your causes and that history will never feel sorry for you. it is the price that is paid for day-to-day comfort and silence. and because of this price, all happinesses are sterile; all sadnesses go unpitied. and any small moments of intense, flaring beauty such as this morning's will be utterly forgotten, dissolved by time like a super-8 films left out in the rain, without sound, and quickly replaced by thousands of silently growing trees.”
"this was not a good idea coming home for christmas. i'm too old. years ago, coming back from schools or trips, i always expected some sort of new perspective or fresh insight about the family on returning. that doesn't happen any more - the days of revelation about my parents, at least, are over. i'm left with two nice people, mind you, more than most people get, but it's time to move on. i think we'd all appreciate that.”
mother tell your children not to follow my example i am from a generation who's got the x factor in it's head get your phone, dial the number one hundred six six six then ask for the biggest f**k of generation x an amazing discovery for the twenty fifth century to dig up the remains of another sick society everyone knows we're to blame of crimes against this planet we deny this mass attack but everyone has done it we all cheat - we all lie we will try - to survive we all are - we all be we will die - when we don't see we as individuals can never stop this process multinationals nowadays make it seem so useless stare at the empty faces makes me sometimes wonder why you take too much healthy space two third of the human race no responsibility not any functionality zero credibility a menace to society
