Age Fluid

glenimp617 · 14 Nov 2018 at 12:27

2018 is turning out to be the year of the fluids.

I'm sure we all know gender fluid is where a person can identify as both male and/or female depending on their currrent situation and/or mindset.

Age fluid is the same but with age. Emile Ratelband is currently in the courts over this, and personally I am of the opinion that if you can identify as gender fluid, then age fluid is no different.

Turns out despite age discrimination being illegal, there are those on Tinder who would rather date a 49 year old than a 69 year old.

so....how old are you today?

if a 12 year old suddenly decides he is age fluid now. and goes to buy alcohol because he feels 18 today. Is that okay?

yeah there's a thread about this already, it's a really shaky precedent to set "honest officer i identify as being the same age as this child so our relationship is ok"

I don't see why not.

I'm planning to identify as a woman so I could join Easyjet's female pilot initiative and get the training paid for.

So he wants to stand in front a judge and ask them to make him legally younger? Good luck with that, I'm sure the judge will be really impressed with that and won't get angry at all over wasting precious court time.

Surely it's not really any different to changing your gender though? Whether you identify as something doesn't change science

Common sense says this is what should happen - but I for one wouldn't be shocked to my core if it isn't dismissed immediately!

Does this mean I can identify as an 18 year old and then proceed to hang around outside colleges chatting up all the young skirt?
