Do you look younger than your age?

Do you look younger than your age?

Could this be autism related?

 An autistic friend mentioned this to me the other day and then it was commented on in a thread here today.

I do look younger than my age and so does my friend - maybe by as much as a decade (on a good day).

Parents
  • Got IDd buying alcohol at the supermarket (favour for a friend, I don't drink). I'm more than double than legal drinking age.

    Uploaded photos to a FB group and asked how old I looked. Consensus was 14-16.

    I need to get on hormones or I'm going to go straight from being interpreted as a child to interpreted as elderly with no adulthood in between.
