Current Events > Do you feel you look your age?

(+) Yeah! (+)

To someone I've never met before, and only judging by looks---I can pass about 7-8 years younger than I am. More conservatively, 5 years younger.

nah i kind of have a babyface + i shave everyday

but im also tall and only 16

so idk..
---

If I dont shave, I look 5 years older. If I shave, I look 5 years younger. So I guess that cancels out.

Wow, that's pretty interesting. How much hair would you have to grow to "obtain" the extra 5 years?

I've been getting 30+ since I was 16.

Personally, I don't think I've aged much since I was 18. I still feel young as hell and nowhere near 30.
---

lol already knew the poll results before looking since everyone looks younger than their age their definition of what age looks like is obviously wrong

Just some stubble, really. I have a baby face so when I shave its pretty obvious.
---

nah. apparently nobody else think so either, people tend to guess I'm 16-18 at best (sometimes younger) but I'm 24

You must look super ol' by now.

Oh, God no. I turned 35 today and I still look like I'm in my early 20s. Get carded still
---

I think I look my age. Other people think I look younger.
---

Ah, illusory superiority, everyone says they look younger, I saw someone make the same poll on another site the other day, with pretty much the same results.

I feel I look my age, have been told I have a younger face by some, but I don't see it.
---

i definitely look my age
---

Depends on the lighting.
---

I've been told I look older than my age

and I've also been told I don't even look old enough to be out of high school
---

With beard and glasses I look 30+

With smooth face and no glasses I look 14

I'm 25
---

I feel I do.

The people who ID me at 35 and everyone I meet seem to think I look a good bit younger.
---

I get 17 to early twenties. I am nearly 29.
---

Nah I'm 25 but everyone assumes I'm 18.

There's upsides and downsides.
---

Older with a beard, younger without. I never look my age.

26 but look younger im told, especially when totally clean shaven
---

Some people here call me a boy despite being 20. I kinda don't like it.
---

I look as old as I do
---

lol no

everyone thinks i'm 18-19 and they're shocked when I tell them I'm 24

People say I'm about 25 or older.

I'm still 17...
---

It kinda sucks being in your mid 20s and still getting carded at the wine store you shop at every week.
---

I'm 30 but if I'm shaved I look around 20. If I haven't shaved I gain at least 5-10 years.

I get told I look mid 20s and I'm almost mid 30s....so lucky in that regard.

---

I'm 21 and people sometimes mistake me for 14-16, especially if I'm wearing something loose fitted like my scrubs (+ no makeup)

I used to pass for 5-6 years younger a few years ago, now I just pass for 2-3 years younger. Just physically.
---

when I have facial hair, I've been told that I look 25-30, and when I'm clean-shaven, I've been told that I look like I'm in my early 20s (sometimes even younger)

I'm 34.
---

I've pretty much always gotten older, up until recently when people seem to have started undershooting. Dunno if it's because I've started shaving my beard shorter (I'm planning on ditching it completely just to see how it looks, after I get a haircut), or because I've lost a lot of weight and my face isn't quite so...haggard looking.
---

When I have my beard as I do now, I look like I'm in my mid-40s rather than early-30s. When I'm clean-shaven, I look like I'm in my early 20s, if that.

So I'm a babyface with pretty damn good beard-growing genes.
---

I have a big beird so prolly older

Everyone thinks they look younger than they actually do. I guess its because we still see remnants of our younger selves in the mirror. My cousin was just joking the other day about how her husband thinks he still looks like a 23 year old.

I still get carded for booze, I look young, DAMNIT!

I once got carded to buy a root beer.

From a vending machine.
