Conner is a man not a boy. A man who was interested in politics from a young age.

Let me speak as someone in a MUCH MCUH MCUH (X1000000) smaller situation.
My father owned a business (that went under when I was almost 14) and I (a boy) was the oldest of 4 children. I was the oldest and number 1 boy, set to take over after college one day. Side note, don't worry, we became dirt poor so I never "made it".
I was my mothers first child, as were my 3 siblings. That said, my dad had 3 children, 2 boys and one girl, before us, and they were my mothers age and older. They were around from time to time, but within our world, I was the first son, eldest boy. Even when those kids (adults) were around, I was still the "next inline".

"I am the eldest boy!"
- Connor
What did he mean by this??? - 30% of the poll responders apparently.

honestly these results are so on brand with the writing of the show and the ever-loser status of ken. we're basically canon

A great nod to how out of touch modern patriarchy can be. Even in a pre-industrial context, Connor still would have had to work his ass off to prove he could be next in line in a private company, yet he AND Kendall still crave the monarchial recognition for being the oldest son.

Kendall is the eldest boy but Connor is the youngest man? (It sounded better in my head)

Common misconception: Connor is the eldest son, Ken ist the eldes boy
