Yes sort of, that's how I read Generations. As "Hero generations celebrate sex differences" , and "sex differences widen in 4T's". I wouldn't use the term, chauvinists, though. All generations have attributes which arise from how raised.
Prophets are raised in a Hero environment as indulged and Hero generations don't like it when prophets attack the Hero's institution.
Next distracted/addled Artists raise Nomads in a permissive/neglected manner and wind up not liking the hardened product thereof.
Nomads get what they want. They get Artists that are attuned to diplomatic and "nice"..
The Hero generation starts to form once the Idealist generation begins to realize that the counterculture is a poor environment for children. When you notice how many late-wave Boomers, however liberal they might be on race, religion, homosexuality foreign policy, and economics are so reactionary about drugs, child abuse or neglect, and street crime... one might see which X types can develop some creativity and imagination, and why Millennials cannot be X.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
