Meaning, do you like things that society deems you should like at your age?
Many things get labeled as 'for kids' or 'for adults' or 'the fandom is for teenagers' and if you don't fit into that age bracket you get picked on for it.
For example, I'll be 32 in a few days, and some of my favorite things are Pokemon, coloring, stuffed animals/cute things, K-pop (where the majority of the fan group are teens/pre-teens) and I tend to get picked on for liking these things at my age. Yet I feel like your interests are irrelevant to your age and you should like what you like as long as you're not harming anyone.
I've also heard of teenagers getting mocked for liking oldies music, for example, and not listening to whatever is popular on the radio.
What do you guys think about this? Do your interests "match" your age or do you think it's better to like what makes you happy?
Personally I think at the end of the day, we should like what makes us happy and not worry about target age groups. (Unless, of course, your interests are harmful).
