Youth. My family tends toward a more youthful appearance and people think I'm a decade younger than I really am. We paid for it with genetically shitty eyesight.
I feel like there's a specific age range where that sucks and a different range where it's nice. When you're in your 20's and early 30's, it sucks that no one takes you seriously, but it's gotta be nice when you get into your 40's and 50's.
Can confirm. Being 27 and looking like a teen sucks. Being a 35 year old father of two who looks like a college kid also has its challenges.
Now I’m 45 and have a little gray in my beard, and now my unfortunate problem is I look like a guy who probably quit drinking Bud Light sometime earlier this year for all the wrong reasons.
I'm in an age range where it's a great thing. 🤟
