The MeWe Generation

The MeWe Generation

MeWes are interpersonal individualists. The MeWes main goal in life is to increase their opportunities; they value alternatives by whether these will increase their opportunities or not. They are afraid of being stuck with no alternatives.  They are optimists in terms of their own future. They believe that they will be able to achieve what they strive for.

 The MeWes are what postmodern thinkers call "dividuals". They don't have one single identity, but an entire wardrobe of mes that they wear depending on the occasion. Although, or maybe as a consequence of, the MeWes high-speed life, friends are what matters most. Being adult is no longer something that is considered inevitable. It's an option, a lifestyle you can choose among other alternative lifestyles.
