i've always been a little taller than the national average. i'm 5"7 at my adult height now, but pre-adolescence, when height is the primary indication of age, i was sometimes mistaken for being older. however as an adult, i'm frequently being told that i look younger than 22/facing barely concealed surprise when i show my id, and i can't decide if this is a good thing or not. i mean, if this carries on a few years down the line i'll probably be grateful, but not right now. being almost denied a 16+ game at hmv is fairly humiliating

so yeah, do you look your age? have you always done?
