    I’m guessing it happens most among millennials and gen z. Seems like dream norms are based on your youth.

    Remember (gen x folks) when they used to say that everyone dreamed in black and white, but you’re like, nuh uh? It’s because boomers dreamed in black and white because they grew up on black and white TV.

      Dreaming in color or black and white is more of a personal aspect unrelated to TV and probably something that can change even for one person over time. And dreams are not only based on your youth, they are based on your life and your experiences and can include just about whatever. You can dream in different languages depending on what you are using most (many dreams I have are in English and I’m not a native speaker).
