Age differences, new society and the net.

Um, not really. I've lived a LOT of places (including abroad). There are rednecks everywhere. We're just proud of them here in the South, and vote them into office and such.

I second this.. having been raised in Appalachia..and lived in the south as well..an ex-husband from Arkanasas... imagine my surprise when I found rednecks in Connecticut and in New Jersey (btw...they're called Pineys here)

Looking forward to being out of your teens? I was thrilled - at 19 I was married and pregnant and people treating me like a teenager really ticked me off. Believe it or not, things improve along those lines at 20 - don't ask me why, they just do. Having a tiny baby might have helped, too.

*nods* I'm in my late 30s, but look much younger (my husband once got grief from his friends about dating someone so much younger than him, and I'm four years older than he is lol) and, before I was pregnant again, frequently got carded when I bought wine. However, when I have my youngest with me, she's now almost 15 months old, I don't get carded at all. Having kids around makes people think you're old, somehow.

I'm 29, and I never get carded, with or without kids. People say I don't look old (which I don't), but I come off as very mature and they find it hard to imagine someone as mature as me being my age.

I think they just mean I'm more boring than most chicks my age. *shrugs*

Just wanted to point out that at 20 something I can still pass for 12 and under when I try hard enough. Nothng more embarrassing then getting offered a kids menu at a resturant.

My take...When I first met El_C online I assumed he was in his late 30s, maybe early 40s. I was way off but I didn't learn that until months later. Age didn't matter to me in the least but that is a perfect example of the question I think.

(Btw, take my age + 40 something and you get the right age)

My boobs are too big for anyone to think I'm 12. They didn't think I was 12, when I was 12. (The almost C cup confused them.)

 

[littleone77]

I'm flat. I can still fit into t-ball shirts I had when I was like 6. When I was 12 they thought I was like 10.

Could I have some of your boobs?

Wow... that is impressive...

I got carded at the bar at the Linkin Park concert 3 weeks ago... I flung my arms around the bouncers' neck and gave him a big kiss on the cheek, then showed him my drivers license... I'm in my mid thirties.. that man made my day!

Believe me, if I could share I WOULD. But it doesn't work. My cousin, the 6' tall one, and I agreed in jr high that she'd give me some of her heigh, and I'd give her some of my boobs. I'm 5' tall and a JJ and she's 6' tall and a B. Obviously THAT didn't work. lol

The other day I was buying smokes for K and I got carded. I didn't hug the chick, cause she was over the counter but I went WOO HOO! I GOT CARDED! I was so thrilled to show her my ID. I made everyone in the store laugh, too.

 

[Betticus]

I see what happened here!

Muhahahaha

I found a smiley site that is new to me, can you tell?

You need to find a hobby.

You need to find a hobby.

I had one but she didn't want me anymore.

I've been buying beer since I was 16. Never got carded until I was over 21, and that happened exactly once, and the waitress was really apologetic and told me that it was bar policy. She was a bit surprised to see that I was 21 and just barely.

I look old. Yay.

You need to find a hobby that doesn't involve another person. Like knitting!

 

[HottieMama]

Homburg..you and me both. i never got carded as a teen either in bars or in liquor stores, and i certainly don't get carded now.

i love it when i go in certain stores to buy smokes/alcohol and that little message comes up on the register screen..."Customer under 30?" (Cause they're supposed to card if you look under 30.) and the cashier hits "No" immediately. ROFL. i'll be 32 in January.

As far as age in relationships, i have ALWAYS been attracted to men and women at least 10 yrs (preferably 15-20) older than myself. i have never had a relationship with someone my own age or younger.

This picture shows suprisingly little boobage. From the way you talk, they push up your chin or something.

Yeah, right. LOL Big boobs sag, and I'm not wearing a bra in that picture. Plus I edited it all out - I am in a bathing suit.

Edited to add: Thanks for reminding me, I forgot I had a picture up. I meant to take it down this morning.
