Each generation has its own fashion rules that determine what\u2019s in and what\u2019s out. And Gen Z is not messing around. First, they claimed a middle part was the only way to go with side parts suddenly losing their edge and becoming a symbol of old age. Next, dance moves were policed as a tell-tale sign of who was born in what decade. And now it seems socks are next in line to be dictated by Zoomers; according to one TikToker, how you wear them is a big giveaway as to which generation you belong. Phoebe Parsons, who goes by \u2018phoebeacp\u2019 on TikTok, took to the social media platform to share her observations. According to her, \u201cThis is exactly how you can tell the difference between a millennial and a Gen Z just by looking at their feet.\u201d \u201cGen Z exclusively wear their socks up and millennials still wear ankle socks,\u201d Parsons said, proving her point (and age) by revealing her own hidden ankle socks. The video has sparked an outcry from shocked millennials, many mortified by this change in what is fashionably acceptable; \u201cIf they\u2019d been as aggressively bullied over the smallest hint of sock as we were, they\u2019d never dare.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s a weird turnaround. As a millennial, we were told that\u2019s what old people do,\u201d one person wrote, proving fashion really does always come back around. Another, who was evidently not planning on changing their style anytime soon, said, \u201cSocks up remind me of when my mom would dress me as a child. It makes me feel like a small child.\u201d However, not all of Gen Z was on board with Parsons\u2019 assessment; \u201cI never understand how someone will say \u2018all millennials do this\u2019 when we all in fact, do not. Some might, but that\u2019s not all.\u201d Be sure to check out all the latest entertainment news on our page here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TikToker splits Gen Z &#038; millennials by claiming socks set them apart TikTok: phoebeacp \/ Unsplash: The Happy ToeA TikToker has split the internet after claiming the difference between Gen Z and millennials comes down to how they wear their socks.
