Well, I'm 32, so 21 is already young to me. Its all relative man. You may be old to someone who is 5 but the majority of the population is older than 21 - so youre young to the majority of the population.

This is a very mind provoking question. When you are small, you will probably think that twenty years old is very old, or any age which is double of yours as very old. But when you grow to that age, you will think that that particular age is not old at all. As for me, I am older than twenty one now and I now think that being twenty one is considered to be very young and immature. Sometimes, I looked back at things I did at that age and I would now say that those are very childish compared to adult standards. I am then glad that I have learnt quite a lot from life during these years. I am sure you will feel the same when you gain experience from school and from work, you will be amazed by how immature a 21 years old is.

No. 21 isn't old, but you are piled with responsibilities that you never had before. At 21, I think most kids think, yeah, we can drink, we can actually go have FUN now! Nope, these kids are foolish. You are an adult now. So act like one! I don't mean to upset anyone. Just saying it like it is. I think we need to remember that 21 for the government means more trouble kids, we need to show that we are more mature than that. Just my opinion guys.

My life is already pretty crazy and im only 16. I do things that i shouldnt say in this forums. But i do get my school work done. I just wanna graduate, get out of school and live with my buds. Thats what im planning to do after school, im not gonna go to college, I might do an online course to get a degree on something. So yeah

hahahah 21y is best period in life... You are young when you have more 50 then you are old

The way I see it, you are as young as you want to be. You could be 100 years old and still have fun in life. If you are 21 you still have only gone through one quarter of your life maybe not even. You never know you might live to be 500 years old with the new technology we are comign out with but even so, if you only live to be 81 you still have sixty years left in your life, which is 3/4 of your life still to go about. It doesn't matter though because you could do things at the age of 80 that people do when they are 10, like play softball or something. Just have fun and live life to the fullest really. It isn't about white hair or wrinkled skin, it is who you are and what you do.

I personally dont think that 21 is old. To be honest, you definitely are still young at heart since that is the first year you can legally drink and go to bars so at 21 you havent grown out of the "having a good time" phase. personally, i think old starts setting in around 28 - 30 since you arent in college anymore, bars arent as enjoyable, you may be married and even have kids, etc. Until then, young as can be

No way! Being twenty-one definately does not make you old. I am a few years younger than that (not telling how much...) and those couple of years do not make you become old all of a sudden. You are young as long as you believe in being young, providing that you take care of yourself and your body's needs. You stated that your physical and mental conditions are top-notch, just like they were when you were young; therefore, you are still young my friend. Don't worry about getting old and most definately don't worry about what others think in regards of whether or not you are too old to do the things that you enjoy doing. I find that I highly respect those people that know how to have the knowledge of an elder while still maintaing the charm and charisma of a person of younger age.

SM is right about taking respnasibality i am 23 now and i would be very scard if 21 was considerd old but hellRAISER when you are an adult your life changes all these responsibilatys kicking in and you have to get out and about by yourself you have to get a job and ern a living and when you reach 21 going to strip clubs aint that appling mate it just a phace you go through the same with alcahool you wake up the morning afterward with a hangover and then its even worce because you have to go to work that day and trust me when i say this it aint plesent.
so my advice to you is be a kid whilst you still can
