Born in 01. I’m excited to be 24 and have a celebration with my girlfriend and family, but I feel OLD.
What is the cutoff? When do you stop being a young woman?
(I was going to say I wish I was still around 10 years younger when I realized that people born in 2011 are going to be/are 14 and not 5.)
Other edit: It’s been almost 8 years since my Sweet 16. Holy crap. My sister was 6.
It wouldn’t hurt. It’s a relative word. Some people way past their prime still could technically say they’re young or feel young.
Sorry, but at 24 you’re practically on your death bed. ☹️
See but the crazy part is that it just keeps get worse! One day you wake up and have back pain in places you didn’t even know could hurt!
And nearly too old for dicaprio
Your brain isn’t even fully developed. Cmon now.
The main thing now is you are past those every four or so years are different really. The real adulting phase (unless you go to grad schoo :) . Your still in your twenties so this is theoretically one of the better times. Can be on your own but still young enough to party. Once you hit 30’s your life is more marked by how aging starts to effect you. Live it up.
“Old” starts at 60-65, not 24 xD
My grandmother said that old is always 3 years away, but IMO, the end of being a “young woman” is somewhere around 32.
I’d say anyone under 30 is “young”.
I mean anyone before 40, really. Once 40, you’re middle aged.
The “young adult” category is usually cut off by 30, though, according to Meetup groups and age-restricted social groups I’ve seen online.
According to u.s. law, age discrimination kicks in at 40. If you’re under 40 they can say you’re too young.
I don’t understand; who is the hypothetical “they” and why would you get kicked out for anything just for being under as opposed to over 40?
Employers can’t discriminate against people for being 40+ for housing it’s 55+ they can legally say you’re too young to work or live somewhere
Thanks!!
OP, every day for the rest of your life you’re going to be the oldest you’ve ever been. As time goes on, that age will even become a number you never much thought about or imagined yourself reaching. Around 24 you have pretty much passed all the major rites of initiation and markers of adulthood. There’s nothing else here except getting older. My advice is to get out that imagination and think about what you want your life to be at 50, because it will come.
I just turned 60. To me you look like a very young woman. Make sure to enjoy your life. Tell your loved ones that you love them. Don’t do stupid things that will harm you later, because even though it may look like later will never come, it will.
0 to 30: young. 30 to 60: middle age. 60 to 90: old. 90 to 120: ancient.
Dammit but I thought I was as young as I feel!
Wait… That’s still old. Shit.
… 2000 to 2060: dragon puberty
Damn my thoughts exactly. Those were the age ranges I immediately thought of.
You can consider yourself whatever you want for however long you want.
If you feel young and people thing you are weird for saying so that is their problem. Young is a feeling not a number.
Exactly. I am 29 and I recently was asked for an ID, when I was buying alcohol, lol.
Even after 40, there’s no shortage of people calling you “young”. The actually young people don’t call you “old” the same way. Just be glad you’re alive.
im moving the cutoff as i age and im not going to stop :p
Yes you were a kid before and now you become a young woman
18-24 usually gets grouped together for census and survey stuff so you got a good year left in the tank before you’re part of the 25-44 crowd
And a decade or so before your targeted ads switch from fast fashion, adventure holidays and entertainment to things like lawn care products and orthopedic footwear.
😮💨
