Allow me a suggestion: how about stopping labelling people based on the year of their birth?

Better yet: how about we leave labelling for packaged products?

You got it wrong we need to start packaging people.

Too much wrong on that sentence for me to want to engage it.

Fun fact, putting people in boxes is a horrible way to treat people, is dehumanizing, and doesn't get an accurate look at individuals and their motives.

Fun fact, putting people in boxes is what companies and governments do in order to organize their marketing efforts to try and sell to specific demographics or to get elected.

Putting people in rough boxes can help you discover things about them. You merely have to remember that it is an approximation and does not describe real humans.
