Age: Fairly new.

Appearance: Either sensible or boring, depending on your point of view.

If this is about influencers wearing shoes made of glass, I swear to God … No, calm down. This isn’t quite as reckless as that. It’s primarily about bedtimes.

I don’t follow. It’s been reported that more and more young British women who go out drinking prefer to be back home and tucked up in bed by midnight.

They do? Yes. According to research by skincare brand No7, 51% of women like to go to bed early after a night out, 65% would rather have an evening at home and just 5% claimed that their perfect night involves going dancing with friends.

You young people are such wimps. There’s probably more to it than that. Over the past five years, 400 nightclubs have closed around the country due to rising costs, a reduction in people’s disposable income and a marked generational decrease in drinking culture that is led, in part, by a growing awareness of alcohol’s effects on mental and physical health.

Amateurs. You don't use alcohol to party till dawn. Still, it's interesting to see such shifts through the lens of economic stress.

Sleeping early is really important for me...Don't want to wake up the next day with headache

Also nightclubs are loud. Would prefer to stay with friends in a more private space
