Most think I am older then I am but some think younger. I will just vote older because most think that.

I guess it depends on how I'm dressed. If I dress like my age, I look my age. But if I dress up, most people think I'm a lot older.

I think I look my age.

I got carded on my 30th Birth day. :)

I've always looked young for my age.

I hated it when I WAS younger, now I'm LOVING it! :)

I have always looked a lot younger, I think I have an HGH deficiency or something. It hasn't been easy, to say the least.

I definitely look older (I've heard anything from 19 to 25) than my true age (16). It sucks getting the family trait of being very hairy; not only does it make one look much older, but it also just looks fugly. :(

I think I look about right for my age, 20. Maybe a year or two older. I think a lot depends on if my hair is all blown about or tied back. That and not shaving for a few days will do it.

Everyone says I have a baby face. A few years ago it was a bit annoying, but I'm sure that when I'm like 45 or 50 I'll love it that I look like I'm 35 or 40!

I drink ... constantly now...smoked weed....tan constantly.

I am 32 and I get carded majorly....my wife who is Japanese and 42, everyone including myself thought she was 20 something.

I look a lot younger than my current age (almost 23...). I used to say that I looked like a college freshman, but after seeing some of the freshmen around here, I don't think I look THAT young (or stupid). I'd say that I look like around 20 years old. However, if I don't shave then I'm told that I look like a 23 year old terrorist.
