I feel like this is the newer variant Performative males for this era?

I think the "hipster" look is alive an well with all the guys who opened overpriced barbecue or taco joints that serve whiskey and tequila. Trends fade because the people who keep to them grow old and the younger generation does something different to not be "like their parents" or gen whatever the fuck category people are bulked into.

Eventually performative males will eventually open matcha and boba tea shops. To than be replaced by something else people can make fun of for 10 years.

Also dads who took up brewing as a hobby (at least around here)
