Do you look younger than your actual age

Stuart333

Are you well preserved?

I saw a comment somewhere that autistic people may look younger than their actual age. I'm not sure about this, or whether it was based on sufficient data.

Obviously we can't post pictures so this is going to have to be based on your own judgement or comments you have received.

I think I look younger than my actual years, my parents who are nearly 80 don't look that old, especially my dad, something the doctors have said. My smart scales also say my metabolic age is a lot younger (14 years) but I don't believe it.

What do you think? Is there anything in it?

    It's nice most of the time, whilst also enjoying being hidden in plain sight, like when my son would play in a youth team and most of the other parents are easily 10-15 years younger and they never heard of Tiswas, and the oldest parent [because his youngest son was an accident after bringing up three much older siblings], says, as a matter of his authority, like we should all look up to him: "I'm an old man now!" not realising o'course that he's only a year older then me. Silly man; and his eyebrows shoot up and his chin disappears when I call him out on it. And he looks at me as if could give a toss about being the dominant one, as if I've stepped on his willy or something. 

    All hierarchies are BS, as you know, especially ones based on other layers of BS...
