Controversy

Alright folks its me. Here to talk about the concept of being Transage.

Yes. That shit.
Most of you know it from "Transphobic as fuck troll terminology" but suprisingly, theres some people who genuinely identify with the term.
And I'm gonna be honest with you. Most of them, so far, Are the kind of creeps you'd expect. But theres more to it than that, there really is.
As a post I saw explain, age dysphoria is a very common thing in society. The normal "Everyone wants to look/feel/be younger" troubles, but a lot of trans people have issues with wanting to seem older. Have you met a trans man who Didn't go through looking like a 12 year old even though hes mid 20s? How hes never treated like a Man, only a Boy? I've seen trans women sad about how they never got to be a Girl. They could only ever be a Woman (Or, a gross man.)
And of course, we have to bring in trauma, neurodivergence, and nonhumanity.
Every traumatized person can relate to being older than any adult you know and still 10 at the same time. But I'm not the same age as other traumatized people my age. They still have life experiences that I'm never going to get due to my AVPD. Mentally, I've been in stasis since I was 14. It is going to take over a decade for me to ever be the age I currently am physically. 
I HAVE seen many respectable, for personal terminology preference, chronopeculiar people. Most people I see will drive home that people who are physically/chronologically Adult but mentally minors will NEVER be able to date minors, and if they try to excuse it with that they're horrible people no matter what. I see people who feel severe, Severe dysphoria at having ANY age still let you know theyre over the age of 18. 
I feel that this terminology that I'm finding for it, especially xenoaged terminology, is worth cataloguing for the future. This will be needed one day. I only hope we can get rid of all the freaks currently using this.

I feel this honestly. I have a lot around my age, and it's nothing good lmao.
But I just tell people I'm an adult.

I may look, and act like a 17-19 year old

but I'm turning 27 in like 3 months lmao.

But I just say adult. I don't "act my age", and don't even feel it. I've been mentally 15 up until like, half a year ago lmao.

I see too many people that are like you said
"I feel younger than this age, but use it prey on kids" but the thing is with me, is I don't like minors lmao. I don't like being around people under 20 lmao.

I am just child like, but don't like kids
