Why dude?

I think this is a decision for the masses.
I'd guess most people won't want this.

I for one don't as age is irrelevant and I think it would cause people to associate credibility with age. For example, many people would treat a 15 year old with less respect than a 28 year old. I don't like that. Maybe that's just because I'm 13 and a half

What next??....shoe size? inside leg measurement? Penis length?

Hustler is particularly interested in knowing the penis length measurement.

I do hear where you are coming from Adam, its like when you read something that you think, hmmm that makes sense, but then you find out it was written by a 6 year old, it kinda puts you off as life experience is important.

But at the same time, age does not equal wisdom. Of all the older people who love to give me life advice, there are only a couple I actually listen to.

I dont believe you can take advice from someone who isnt 1. In a good position to give advice, 2. Has made mistakes and LEARNT from them and 3. Is a general cool dude you wanna be like.

After thinking about it tho, I'd vote for showing age as it gives you a better feel for the other person you are talking too. Its up to you then to judge them on their age or not.

Adam is a racist, he called me a Gringo on Saturday night for pinching his girl.

We make decisions based on details all the time, theres nothing wrong with that. E.g. If DuncanButlin hadnt posted he's 63 I might have actually invited him to be my wing sometime...

Not that I dont think he should wing, but just not for me.

I wish him good luck in his self improvement tho. Xxx

Dont think I agree with this.

You are likely to perceive someone as having value who matches your “ideals” of what value/worth are. This logic would only help confirm your preconceived notions.

You might miss out on thinking outside your box...

Dont be afraid to listen to those you disagree with or those you dont "value".
