I must say that for as much as my Millennial Generation likes to rip on our parent's Boomer Generation, all credit to Boomer men for having mature interests: golfing, wineries, classic rock, country clubs, breweries, yacht clubs, motorbikes, traveling Europe, tailgating, rifles…

Now take the accepted interests of my generation. The guy in the picture below is roughly my age – a millennial who is a few years older than myself.
