That was certainly true traditionally, especially for the youth who used to lead in that characteristic, but I think even the youth now have reeled it in some in recent years in general life. At least compared to traditionally. It's harder to get a young person to smile now or engage in banter. So I think their end of culture seems to be going a more stoic direction. Actual media hasn't caught wind of this trend yet, but then our media is known to blow everything out of proportion, not just our culture... sometimes it seems like melancholy, but it's just how a lot of young people are now. They're also much more cautious now.
