I swear there’s no weird ulterior motive to this - I just watched the first episode of the reunion of Real World 1 - the NYC one…brought back lots of memories. I could make an educated guess at what the median age is, but just thought it would be interesting to have a poll.

Our actual age, or the age we think of ourselves as?

I vastly underestimated the "older than me" crowd here. I'm 42 and thought I was one of the older folks here.

Someone once paraphrased that into this awful statement: "You're only as old as the woman you feel." My word, I'm shocked.... and I guess that makes me 40

There is an expression in Spain when talking about your age .. loosely translated: "We should discount the time I spent dancing"
I've always liked that one :-)

I was almost positive I was the youngest person here. Guess not! Turning 31 in May.

Age is a state of mind but I was surprised to find that I'm one of the oldest guys here

Well, al least I'm at the lower end of the up to 134 category
Of course - that's also why I was part of the last draft and got to see Jimi Hendrix in person

I would assume the younger demographic never visits forums, only social media platform portals.

I was a bit surprised that the majority is in my age group so far (59). It's hard to even think I'm that old. I know so many younger people who have such "old" thinking. I'm always trying to learn more and be more of what I can be. But.. It's also nice to know I'm not the oldest...

It's all part of the reason why there's very little crap on here - we're (supposedly) old enough to know it's exactly that.
Cheers, Ross

41 here. I know, I know what you're all thinking...("hmm I assumed younger, seems like he should be smarter or at least more mature")

I have to wait about another 67 years before I can be in a higher bracket!
