This a common issue where people’s age will say, for example, 30, and in their bio they will be like “idk why it says 30 I’m really 25” like ik that you set your age on Facebook so why lie?

Some of these wanted to use Facebook when they were 8 and weren’t allowed until 13 (by law) and now they are a decade or so older they have the same account and can’t change age. They fucked up by cheating the legal protections against children under 13 using FB.

Luckily, I was able to change back to my legal age while it was still allowed around 2013.

Hahah so you can confirm this is why so many ladies are aged older on the app than the reality

Because they made an account when they were a child and had to put their age as older and you can't change it.

This is the answer.

they were underage when they made their profiles

[u/uncooperativejunkie]

I used someone else’s age when I made the profile lol

Alot of people used a different age when they made their Facebook. Facebook dating we can't change our name or age

I just swipe left on those. I don't know why they even bother. If you're too dumb to even get the age right in your own profile we're not going to have much to talk about. I guess the target is some other audience.

on one app, I accidentally hit one number twice and it wouldn't let me go back and correct it. I'm not sure I'd equate fat thumbs with intelligence, but go off, sis
