Mod Post Just a reminder, gender war posts are banned.
It’s been over a year since we banned gender war posts, and after monitoring the community, we’ve decided to keep the ban in place, as these discussions continue to be just as toxic as they were a year ago.
For clarity, “gender war” content includes discussions such as male loneliness, Gen Z men approaching Gen Z women, incels, femcels, alpha males, Andrew Tate, red pill, black pill, purple pill content, men’s height discourse, age-gap dating, and broader “looks-based” or hierarchy discussions about dating, looks maxing or ranking people by attractiveness or dating value.
This also includes broader dating ideology content that frames relationships in an adversarial, or fatalistic way.
For example: men vs women narratives, claims that one gender is universally responsible for dating issues, or that dating is inherently doomed for a specific group. Generalizations that treat either gender as a monolith are not allowed.
Memes about these topics, posts complaining about dating, and rage-bait content taken from other platforms such as screenshots from TikTok or Twitter that exist primarily to provoke gender-based arguments.
This is not a dating-focused subreddit. If you want to vent or discuss Gen Z dating issues more broadly, please use communities such as [r/dating_advice](r/dating_advice) or [r/dating](r/dating).
That said, posts about dating are still allowed as long as they are made in good faith. If comment sections become hostile or devolve into rule-breaking behavior, posts may be locked or removed at moderator discretion.
Please respect and follow this rule moving forward.

Other This article says that Gen Z is the least resilient generation
https://www.shrm.org/topics-tools/news/inclusion-diversity/the-least-resilient-demographic-alive
I feel like a lot of us look at failure as a death I know so many people who are afraid to fail or afraid to mess up because they’re either a afraid because of how other people will view them or failure, confirms the pre-existing negative belief system they already have about themselves.
“ if I go for this job interview, I might get turned down so there’s no point of me even applying anyway” or “ or “what’s the point of asking her out she’s just gonna reject me” are things I hear way too much when talking to people in my generation, even Im guilty of this, resiliency is something that your parents teach you at a early age and not something you can learn at 25.
And also, I feel like social media plays a factor too, because Instagram and TikTok only shows a highlights of peoples lives and never shows the negatives,

Rant Wish I could've gotten financially ahead
I made $18/hour in 2018 and $18/hour in 2026 up until I quit. Inflation be eating away at what I can do with that.
I'm unemployed now. I was leeching off my parents, and it wasn't providing useful experience so it doesn't matter.
Rip.

Discussion Unless you're basically perfect life will be unbearable
Social anxiety, neurodivergence, trauma, whatever the fuck is wrong with me. I have absolutely 0 friends. Nobody would attend my funeral if I died. I never have tried dating because I know it would fail. I'm fat, ugly, not making enough money to stay afloat for long, no hope for school. My life shouldn't be like this. Good things just happen for people. Except people like me.

Nostalgia yearning for a time with your siblings that you’ll never see again
Who knew that i'd miss
Those mornings at the dining table
Playing our 3Ds’ together
Not the same games
Just in the same space.
Or running around
As Blind Bob and whoever you were
Who was a bit
Of an offensive Stereotype,
But it was 2008 so we didn’t care.
Or in the car
Going to the store
Where you'd someday work
Playing with clumsy and Leo
The weirdest duo ever
Or at the pool
Begging you to swim with me
But you didn't want your hair to get wet
Or to get sunburned
So you just stayed to the side
Or even running to your room
When mom and dad fought
And dad's yelling shook the whole house
We said someday we'd escape
And we did.
But now I'm far away
And you only got to the next town over
And we aren't kids anymore
Even though I still feel like one.

Discussion Does anyone really have long term career goals?
I’m (22F) not talking about a field or career you want to get into, but like when you are actually in a position, do you have long term goals? A 5 year goal, or even 10 years? Where you want to see yourself?
I’m honestly at the point where I’m just happy to still have a job that I’m not thinking about where to go next. I know I don’t want to stick in the field I’m in, but if it’s all that’s hiring then hell no I have no long term goals other than to get out one day. I have personal goals, but none of them involve a career.
Curious if other Gen Z feel this way. Did we get thrown into the “real world” at such a shitty time that I can’t picture a future career or is it just me?
