[quote=Anonymous]Serious question. If the current socially acceptable line of thinking is that when it comes to gender biology is not what's important, but rather how one feels that should be recognized, why can't the same thinking apply to age? After all society does ascribe a different status to someone who is 50 as opposed to someone who is 35. If at 46, I believe that my health/appearance/ attitude aligns more with what society views as typical for 30, and it causes me emotional distress to be labeled as 46, why can't I change my birthdate and age on forms and insist that others recognize me as 30? Or alternatively not answer what my biological age is and claim that I am age fluid?[/quote]
