I'm 24 and people constantly wrongly assume my age and won't serve me in shops. >_<
Yes, I do. It’s very common. I remember being a mother, and 28yrs old, and I was asked for ID in a nightclub. I was forever getting asked for ID when buying alcohol into my 30’s. I was asked for ID when buying cigarettes in 2021. I was 48 at the time lol.
I did laugh when someone at work thought I was in my 20’s, and was confused when I was talking about my son who was 25
I don’t think it’s just an ASD thing though, as my sister still gets asked ID and she’s in her 40’s. Most of my family look younger than their years.
This isn't fair. I am now feeling most envious.
