    Society changes over time. It’s been a long, long time before multiple generations lived with each other, permanently. It’s been the norm, that sometime between a person’s early to mid twenties they leave the nest.

    This implicitly discounts that at least 1/3 of the world’s population that currently live in exactly that model of society exist, or they just don’t count because they don’t have a society, your pick.

      I was referring to my own society. Also, that’s not me saying what you claimed I said. That’s your interpretation of my statement. Huge difference.

      A third of the world’s population is approximately 2.7 billion. While possible, I doubt the number of multigenerational households is that high. Though I would be interested to read any material you may have on the subject. Espein comparrison to twenty years ago due to the skyrocketing costs of apartments/houses.

          Bruh. If you can’t quote me, I didn’t say it. That’s how it works. You interpreted my statement to mean whatever you want it to mean. Just let it go.

              Yes, and I was referring to mine. As that’s the one I’m familiar with. I’m not so arrogant to believe I’m an expert on other societies. I don’t study them. That’s not my field of study.

                  It is what I intended to say. It’s your opinion that it’s “very fucking clearly” what I said. If you truly believe I was referring to every society currently in existence, that’s on you.

                  Either way, this conversation is going no where fast. Enjoy your weekend. Stay safe out there.
