bjorn Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Why do the younger generation write everything in lowercase? It’s a trend I’ve seen for a couple of years even before Ariana Grande did it? Lie what’s the psychology of this? Mental illness? Insecurity? They wanna be cool or what’s the tea? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim Petrat Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) i honestly couldn’t tell you why i started… although i do think using caps and perfect grammar in casual conversation over text looks aggressive now that i got used to this LOL obviously if i’m ever talking in a professional setting i would never talk in lowercase or not use punctuation though as i’m sure most other people who text similarly would as well Edited September 27, 2023 by Kim Petrat needed to clarify a little 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayseri Mantisi Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 what's with people getting triggered over how other people write? it's literally a writing style on the web, it's not something like a grammar error or something which you can get triggered over. i don't care about how other people write. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlossomSoul Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) The youth has done this since like 2009. My friends and I used to do it to be cute and dainty. thought it was edgy.

bjorn Posted September 27, 2023 Author Share Posted September 27, 2023 So after conducting this trial my conclusion is it’s because it’s cute? Got it Spoiler I’ll stick with mental illness 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illuminati Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I think it's a marketing trick to make the songs look more personal than they (sometimes) are, or to give an impression that it's casual, like a voice note and you don't care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitch Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I think it's because it looks more informal. Same reason people skip punctuation etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Who Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I can understand it more online, because some people just probably can’t be bothered to use capital letters / punctuation, but I’m not sure why it’s became such a trend with song titles. I don’t find lowercase song titles as offensive as uppercase ones, but they’re still not attractive to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
