Tinder Man Aged 69, wants to legally change his age to 49

Can you imagine if this was permitted - people would try to change their age to much older age ranges, why not raise it to retirement age and start legally claiming the State Pension? :rolleyes: |

Unbelievable, bit it's crazy enough that you wouldn't be surprised if it happened.
On a side note, if i was him, i'd be looking at a bit of plastic surgery as his likeness to a young Rolf Harris is rather offputting. |

Stop the world, I want to get off.
However, this does perfectly show how “ self identifying” with anything is bullshit, and dangerous. |

I mean changing your name is obviously not the same thing. Being transgender is a recognised medical condition. Changing age and race is not.

We'll know next month, the court gives it's decision in 4 weeks.

Why did he go for 49? I'd have gone for 29, and changed my name to Ivor Biggun.

It sounds to me that this is just a stunt to show how ridiculous this whole thing is. Where will it all end? Maybe someone sensible could identify as the Labour Party Leader and kick out the current incumbent. :rofl: |

Outliers and extremists in any area shouldn't be used to decry or minimalise the challenges that others undergo, just because it doesn't fit in our "world picture" and we find it difficult to empathise/understand what they are going through, doesn't make it any less challenging for them. It's like being back in the 20th Century, when homosexuality was seen as a psychological abberation that needed to be cured, and people were imprisoned or given mind-numbing drugs to "make it go away", or when women were expected to stay at home and basically be second class citizens, subservient to their husbands or fathers. Hopefully, most of us are more enlightened now. |

Yes, in many ways people have become more enlightened with the passage of time, but theres always room for improvement.
Sometimes people don't do things intentionally, it can be down to a lack of education, institutional discrimination etc and often institutions will deem complaints etc to be simply trouble causing. The Stephen Lawrence case is a classic example. Nonsense like this age thing does nobody any favours. |

So if I get my age changed to 68 does that mean i could just retire?
Its a ridiculous idea. You were born in a certain year so no matter what you say or do you are still that age. |
