I hide my age cos i look smaller than my age, and i don't want people to start saying "are you serious? Can't believe it, you look like you re 16" fact is it has affected my self esteem badly and made me more introverted. You don't wanna be rolling with ur age mates and u re the smallest in their midst how would u feel? |

Dunno. But I guess when one gets to some certain stages in life, there are responsibities one is expected to take on so some people hide their age to avoid such responsibilities. Conversely, as you grow older, there are some things or behaviours people expect you to drop. But some people hide their age to carry on with such acts. |

Age is only a number. Unless it's required for sth important, like medicals or legally, u reserve d right not to disclose yr age. Though I agree with d op that u shouldn't lie about it anyway. In my case I don't lie abt my age but I choose when n to whom I wish to reveal it. If a person asks for my age, I assess why he/she wants to know n that shapes my answer.....A person's age is not a prerequisite for being my friend. I am as old as i feel. My humble submission 1 Like |

Hehehe, I bin get very big mouth, I dash my colleagues nicknames tire, I yab boiz tire, we bin no gt babes just shemales (dept of Civil Eng.) I no send. All the Papa's in my dept, will be lyk Unimke, I'm not your mate, I finished secondary school in '96, some say the finished in '92 , So I come dey respect my elders. Even tho we found ourselves in the same place at that same time. During Nysc, chics d fill ID card eg 1st may ___ leave the year blank.. Guys don't really hide their age, it is a female trend. Imagine say babe d clock 33, she never marry, no fiancee, do u expect her 2 open hr mouth say she b 33. |

Nigerians and their Nosyness. They always wanna use your age against you. Its a terrible culture we've got. We never have anything positive to say about the next person. We can use age to bring down the next person to make ourselves feel better. Thats hypocrisy and inferiority complex. I dnt blame people for hiding their ages. Even from the people ruling us down to the common man, they forge ages. Its a culture and its pathetic. I wish our mentality wasnt this horrible. We are tooooo age specific in everything. 1 Like |

I think it's not totally because of underachievement, relationships, prestige and the like. The most of it all boils down to African culture. In Yoruba-land, every adult is given a significant level of respect by every other adult (except their parents and older siblings). It doesn't necessarily matter if the adult is younger or older. Moreover, asking an adult for their age (from the Yoruba perspective) appears contemptous and wouldn't normally surface under a peaceful atmosphere. The issue of age inquisition before marriage does not usually come up as the parents of the intending couple (key orchestrators) go on their own research. Information has its way of going around in their little communities those days so no need trying to hide anything. African culture definitely has the greatest contribution to this. |
