Ok I know that I will enjoy this when I am like 40 but.... It is like a little annoying when people just assume that I am a 'kid'
My DH wanted to goto the diner. When we where standing at the counter this guy was talking about sex and he goes 'oh wait theres a kid I cant say it' Besides the fact that is 1 am and If I were a Kid and up right now that would be really bad! I am 24 and MARRIED!
I know some of you are like so what whats the big deal But I get ID at the movies and TWICE one at applebees and once at Friendlys I got the childrens menu. YOU HAVE TO BE 12 TO EAT OFF THE CHILDRENS MENU!

When I wear no makeup, I am called ma'am and treated like an old lady, but if I go out to a bar w/ DH and I get dressed up and do my makeup, I ALWAYS get proofed.
That also happens exactly like that to me. 4 yrs ago after my second kid I went out with my folks and brother for dinner and left the boys with hubby. The asked for my id over my brothers who looks like a baby. I had no makeup on and just had a baby. Hello !!! I was def. older then the server. Guys always say I look younger then what I am or take me for younger. Females, never do I dont get it. But, I appreciate when I can cause I know soon I wont be able to. Especially being in my mid thirties.

I hear ya. I'm 29 years old and sometimes I get proofed for R-rated movies. I think its funny cause I'm usually older than the person checking my i.d.

I've gotten IDs for lotto scratch offs too, and drinks - the worst though is my voice - I have a quiet, small voice most of the time so when I pick of the phone its always 'Is your mommy home little girl' or even when i speak to prospective employers, its embarassing I always need a disclaimer - I'm older than I sound!

I'm about to be 27 and I still get IDed a lot, so I can relate. It's funny, I get IDed for cigarettes more oftten then I get Ided for beer. I went for a makeup trial in June at Nordstrom and everyone thought I was getting ready for the prom! I can kind of understand the people who worked there, but I had other teenagers asking what high school I went to.
