Does anyone else have a lot of neotenous features?? A lot of people tell me I look more around 14 yrs old and I feel a lot of people who spent too much time at the computer in their youngest years are a bit younger looking. I wouldn't know the science or have any stats to prove it but I'm just curious about some individual answers.

Anyone else look a decent bit younger than your actual age??

Yes, but that's probably mostly because of my short stature and the fact that I stopped growing once I reached exactly 5 feet.
Unfortunately, I do seem to have quite a baby face naturally, though it seems that the way I style my hair, wear my makeup, and how I pluck my eyebrows into super thin tadpoles seems to help with reducing some of the neoteny and makes me look more like my age.

im a senior in high school and i get mistaken for a freshman or a sophomore all the time, though i think it's only because my height has been stunted a bit lolol.
however, i'm not sure that being at the screen all the time would slow the aging process. in fact, it likely would age u faster because of the blue light exposure ! if that makes sense lolol
u might just have very good genetics from ur parents and naturally age slower c: !

So people would be surprised when I told them my age and I thought people was just being nice until I repeatedly started getting people telling me I look young for my age :D. I really started believing it when I attract 20-23 year Olds more than my own age. ^.^/ though in my case I don't do drugs or drink, and I run 2 miles everyday and drink only water! So that may have something to do with it
