This millennial woman, @peroanochee, needed no words to prove her point:

@peroanochee
Que piensan ustedes ? I try and do middle but end up flipping it !! Always #middlepart #sidepart #latina #trending #parati #lasvibras
♬ Middle part baddies - lady gleep

@sra_krod dramatically exclaimed, "I WANT VOLUME" before tossing her attempted middle part to the side:

@sra_krod

@taylorrainsmusic fought dirty by bringing up Gen-Z's affinity for Tide pods:

@taylorrainsmusic

@sanderstudies pointed out what many millennials know to be true: that you would likely have been bullied in school for having a middle part:

@leahkoob pointed out that Gen-Z also apparently declared the laughing emoji and skinny jeans to be out:

Some are using humor to prove their point like @josie.mama.and.the.dogs:

@josie.mama.and.the.dogs

And, of course, while some millennials are fighting their battles, others like @.theresa.jones are crumbling under pressure:

@.theresa.jones

And some are just trying to fit in, like @ventureswithval:

Gen-Z Is Insisting We All Part Our Hair In The Middle, And Millennials Are Putting A Foot Down

In life, we often have to make difficult decisions. And when it comes to appearances one can never be too careful.

As such, a tiny war of sorts has erupted on TikTok as Gen-Z is trying desperately to force people to middle part their hair, swearing that it is the more flattering part.

And frankly, millennials are not standing for it.
