If you want to stand right outside my cubicle and chit-chat, then go right ahead. If you want to discuss your hot flashes, that’s fine, too. But please don’t turn to me and tell me, “You’re too young to know anything about that.” For one thing, I have no interest in being included in your conversation. You can tell that by the fact that I’m ignoring you. Second, please don’t make assumptions about things you can’t possibly know. It makes you look like an asshole.
