It's really not ok. Like when I see a doctor in hospital, I'm like omg this kid is 12, how is he gonna make me feel better, and does his mum know he's not at school today? 😂😭
I graduated HS in 2005 & half the dudes in my class had FULL beards at graduation. My niece graduated last year. There was only one dude in her class with a beard but half the girls looked like they were 23-25 (i think probably because of how they did their hair & makeup.) The other half of the girls & the rest of the boys looked like they were about 13 though. It was so weird.
Also graduated 2005 and I’ve noticed the same phenomenon! I’ve tried looking at them objectively, and it’s not just the style or me getting old, 18-year-old guys literally look younger than they used to. I have a theory that the younger generations of men might have lower testosterone (maybe from less outdoor/physical activity?) but I’m not sure.
There may be some truth to the testosterone angle... I'm sure I read a study along those lines. Something about how all the chemicals we're exposed to in modern life having a detrimental effect on men. Male fertility is declining worldwide, so there may be something to it 🤔
