Discussion How are guys over 30 expected to act?

[Hoppipolla]

It's weird. I spoke to a receptionist at the doctor's today and she said I spoke like I'm 18, heh. Even though I'm in my 30s!

Hm. I wonder why. Like, I didn't think I was speaking in any kind of unusual way.

I guess guys over 30 are supposed to act kind of grounded and stable and dominant? Is that it?

I'm really not sure to be honest.

I think this thread is about how OP talks, not how he sounds. But I might be wrong, very confusing.

There is nothing you can do to improve your voice, unfortunately.

The amount of sex you've had by 30 should've turned you into a confident and competent guy who knows the nuances when talking to women and give you a mature glow. If you haven't been able to get laid then you're stuck in an arrested development stage doomed to be treated like an adolescent.

Smoking, drinking Whisked can give you a raspy voice. Not that i recommend it

Yeah there's definitely a double standard. The expectations on men are very high and the window of how it's acceptable to act is very, very small. And the older you get, the smaller it gets until there's basically one way you're allowed to be and that's it.
