Quick Disclaimer, I've tried to be as inoffensive as possible here (don't want to insult someone's late granny or some such) but I can't catch everything. So yeah, sorry if anyone's offended.
So, some of us will have (or be familiar with the trope of) a racist elder relation.
You know the type.
Even sexism is still around in the same way, Bob Kelso of Scrubs anyone?
So, I think it's pretty clear that our generation aren't comfortable with homophobia and it'll be the people retiring now that will have some "Homophobic grandparents" in their cohort.
What do you think our generation will be bigoted about?
I think it'll be transphobia. I think I'm a pretty nice dude and It's something I have difficulty understanding which is pretty close to fear and blah blah. It's not a stretch (in my mind) to see people becoming more open about transgenderism (?) in pop culture or whatever and I can foresee a bunch of people (at least from rural towns like the one I grew up in) being openly against this.
So what do you think we need to be aware of for when we're old to avoid being wrinkly bigots?

Or, "It's not racist, she's old"Inaccurate quote but it's close from memory said:My grandmother use to call me a porch monkey all the time, she also called a broken bottle a '****** knife' - Clerks 2
