I'm sure some have genuine ideological opposition to this whole scene, but why do I get the feeling that NYC media's obsession with it is less about principles and more about fear of aging? That culture's sensibilities, which once were bold and youthful and alluring, have achieved middle age, gained much institutional hold (congrats!) and are now becoming your mom and dad's ideology (quite literally, since at least half of millennials are solidly in the parental age bracket now).
Thank you Noah!
