Just vote in the poll, for a rough breakdown of the members' ages.

Note:The ages in the poll were taken from a dictionary, which said the 'middle-aged' was either between 30 and 50 or 40 and 65, so I compromised and said 30-55 (who lives to be 130 anyway?)

I agree that there should be a breakdown of the "young" category. I reckon that 15-25-year-olds will have the highest representation. Being 18 myself, 30 seems a little old to be classed as young (OK, I'm rambling on nonsensically, I am aware...):D

Yep, I too think there ought to be one more choice for people under the age of twenty (I'm 16). So, I didn't vote yet. Just waiting for someone to add the option...

yeah, I'm only 18 too, so out of the 4 people who've replied we all really belong in a catogory that isn't there :)

I agree, but it's also a little young to be considered middle-aged. I am 30, and I don't care what the dictionary says, I've got a good 10 years before I will even consider labeling myself middle-aged. I would type more about this but my arthritis is flaring up.

I always thought of 30 as the start of middle age. Anything in the 20's still seems young, but when you hit that age, you're old :)

Nah thats a misconception - your musculature becomes fully developed in your early to mid-thirties so by all accounts those you label 'middle-aged' should be able to easily hand you your a$$ :D

I'm just going by what the dictionary said, it doesn't lie!! Well, you'll have to wait for a Mod if it's really that big of a deal.
