This is Part 2 of the Horribly Inappropriate Question, But .... discussion.
Here are the Previous and Next Threads.

The question was:
QUOTE (TC Geralds)
I know it's just awful to ask people's ages, but I am curious. I admit to being an (ahem) older HP fan, and therefore I would imagine one of the older H/Hr fans as well. How old are my fellow shipmates?


Nikki
I'm 14 years old. And Harry Potter is for everybody of any age. cool.gif
bemused
that blue and silver book is everywhere (OoP) i've seen just about every age have it. I'm one of the youngest-13
Harry/Hermione 4eva
I'm 15, 16 in December! Yay!
Harry Potter is for everyone, of any age, so it doesn't really matter how old you are. biggrin.gif

I am 19. Will be 20 next year. I'm sorry I didn't get to reply before, but was enjoying reading fics a bit way too much smile.gif

Short: I am 6.1. I am VERY tall compared to my family. Coming from a indian background, it is a bit on the tall side. smile.gif I am taller than my 29 year old brother smile.gif -- almost a head. My mother... well... She is very tiny happy.gif

I think one of the oldest fandom members is at SugarQuill.net. I remember them making a post when the person reached 80 something (might have been 90) .. or something really high. smile.gif I am glad to have TC and Romulus and older guys in the fandom smile.gif It's very hard to find guys who write fanfics really well, and can write smuttiness. happy.gif

Still 21 and still feeling like 16.
Its not that I'm childish or something like that its just everybody think I'm younger. Maybe I look to healthy
JadedHHrFan
I turned 11 just yesterday! Ain't I a young shipmate? Well, well, I suppose I am the youngest and probably very contorted for an 11-year-old! [blush] Anyway, Harry/Hermione forever!

I'm 19 will be 20 as of next april 9, and my freinds just think I'm nuts and I'm like this is news to you? laugh.gif

I'm 15, 16 in September 22...U can send me presents if u want... rolleyes.gif

I turned 18 back in January, January 29 to be exact. I don't think age matters a bit when it comes to Harry Potter, so I can proudly say that I'll one day be like the person at SugarQuill who turned 80 or 90, although I'll be shouting about Harry and Hermione as I bang my cane against my wheelchair and hope my false teeth don't fall out. Then the nice people at the nursing home will probably remove my books from my frail hands and lead me gently back to my room. Now that you all know where I see myself in 60-70 years...

I'm not sure when the height thing started, but I felt like I'd contribute. I'm one of the taller ones here, I think: I'm 6'4". In my family, that's not really unusual because you're either ridiculously tall or short and stocky, and since we all have red hair, it's really like the Weasleys, only we aren't all of the male variety and there's this stepdad guy thrown in about.

There really are a lot more girls than guys in our happy little fandom, aren't there?

--Albert, who believes age ain't nothing but a number, unless of course one is refering to Emma Watson, which much to his regret is horribly, horribly illegal

I'm 15, 16 in march:D

Oh... man! I'm the youngest here then. I'm turning 12 in 20 days from now. 18th of August to be specific. I will always be a H/Hr shipper until I die...
Karen
I'm 16 today! biggrin.gif I'm finally the same age as all my mates in my year! Well, until September anyway. Man, I hate being the youngest in the year! tongue.gif

I can't beileve how many people here have their birthday on 31st July.
Happy Birthday everyone!

*hides*

I'm supposed to be thirteen.

As if that isn't young enough, I happen to act as if I were about five years old.

Oh, well. biggrin.gif
Cassie Valentine
19, sorry to say that 20 is comming up in Jan. I do find it kind of comforting to know that Harry and Co are commin' up on 24 in July/Sept ect.

Wow I'm so surprised, I was almost ashamed to tell people that I'm obsessed with the Harry Potter books before. blush.gif I always felt like I was too old, but now that I read this I'm so happy. Must admit that I am soo surprised to find out that I'm even one of the younger people here, wow! zorro.gif Anyway, I'm 16.
DBird
16 here

I'm somewhat overly-proud of my birthday, since I happen to share it with one of JKR's wonderfully written characters, albeit 9 (10? isn't made clear if she's almost 11 or almost 12 going into 1st year) years later.
I'll be 14 on September 19th! Wooo! thumbup.gif

I'm 13 but i'm soon to be 14. Yay! biggrin.gif People say I act much older, and I shouldn't be as serious as i am. But oh well.... I need to lighten up. innocent.gif
mexican girl
Yay! I thought I was old !!(with all the respect) I'm only 16!! Maybe because here in mexico, the reader's ages are between 8-14

I'm glad there are so many people of so many ages!!

I'm a hopless romancer (someone said that in a post, but I don't rembember who did!), I have to confess that I'm not the mature kind! But still, think love has to be something you really feel!! And that all things are meant to be (H/Hr!!!)

I wish I could find my own Harry crying.gif
sunshinebelle
Hey all!

I'll be 15 the day after Christmas!!
(poor me huh?)

I feel young here!!!!
I very much agree with the fact that H/Hr fans are older and tend to read the books more thourouly (spelling?)
I also think (and maybe this is being biased, but its what Ive noticed) that H/Hr fans are much more mature, intelligent and read-between-the-lines-y then Ron/Hermione fans.
Maybe im imagining it but I dont think so *grin*

I think its fine for older people to read these!! Everyone in my highschool does, even the people who usually hate reading. So its not like a loserish thing to do (its just loserish to read and write fan fiction, and go on HP message boards, which is why I keep that quiet lol)

Well I suppose I can add my age to this thread. As you can tell, I'm still an ickle firsty blushing.gif I'm not very good at coming on here and posting anything. Yes I know, lurking is evil. Anyway, I agree with everyone else, it's great to see people of every age on this site.

Ok, so here goes...I'm 25, going on 80. Or at least I feel like it. Sad huh? Yes, anyway, that's just my .02 worth. Everyone take care!

I turned 14 on July 28th. Yay my birthday is very close to both Harry Potters and Dan Radcliffes birthdays. Go me! Heh, It's actually scary seeing people glare jealously at you as you walk by because you fall into the category for the very few who are younger then Dan but older then Harry. blush.gif guess I'm just lucky that way. Last time I checked I was 5'3 if anyone actually cares anymore tongue.gif

karenkate_kitty
Well, I turned 21 last June and well, there are a lot of older people that I know who reads HP and most older people that I know like the propect of H/Hr.... I wonder why? H/Hr rocks!!!!

Apeman
I just turned 20 in July. Is it me or does turing 20 make you feel old? I think it has something to do with not having the word teen in my age anymore.
Oh well.

The reason I love H/Hr is because Ive had to many relationships like R/Hr and believe me they all ended up being nightmares. For about 2 months they're fun but after that we just wanted to kill each other.
CryHope
Just turned 15 yesterday. Isn't it cool that i turned 15 on August 15th?! Lolz... i found that fact really amusing.... thumbup.gif

oh my.... i'm quiet young in here..... oh well....! H/HR ship knows no age, tis a ship where all age are welcome..... biggrin.gif

nuff about my blaberring... better check the fanfictions now...

i'm thirteen... but i turn fourteen in two months! YAY!!!! its cool to know that some people in my age group read the hp books. People at my hs think they're for kids....
Juanita
Oh, I feel old, and I'm only 22. The Unknown Street Kid, according to my 14-year-old stepsister, people in hs do think hp is for kids, but most secretly read them anyway. Don't worry, though - when you're my age you can talk about it in bars in a kind of ironic 'I'm just appreciating pop culture' kind of way.

Fellow people-in-their-twenties, y'all do that, right? right? *looks around nervously*

Ha! Juanita - don't worry about being too old, or un-cool to be an HP fan. I'm a 33-year-old who frequently and eagerly discusses HP with my friends from work and grad school. We all made bets on the OOTP death. None of us got it right. biggrin.gif

One of my friends even SMS'd* me on midnight of Jun 21. She knew I had just read OOTP, so she wanted to know who had died. She SMS'd me 3X as she couldn't stand the suspense. I told her I'd lend her my book rather than give away THAT spoiler. cool.gif

*SMS = cellphone Short Message Sending (or "texting")

I am 14 turning 15 next year!

I'm 20 and sadly I don't know a single person over 15 who reads Harry Potter. It kind of sucks having no to disuss Hp with in person. Oh well, at least I have the internet.

yeah, we all know who they are too. it's kind of funny how far they'll carry out a lie just to fit in.... but anyway...

does any one know why my name shows up purple in posts? i'm confuzzled....


YAY biggrin.gif

The Unknown Street Kid - a Portkey-er will see his/her own user name in purple when he/she logs in. On my computer, only my name appears in purple. But I see it in plain colors when I just lurk. (yeah, I do that sometimes)

I don't know what the technical benefits are, but I trust the Admins have something in mind when they activated that feature. rolleyes.gif

It's to let you know that the post has something that relates to you specifically. I will be making it a bit more obvious ^.^ People don't seem to get that their name gets hightlighted, because it's too close to the black writing. Hmm.. maybe a horrible yellow background would be good.

I'm going to be 15 very, very soon! biggrin.gif I hate when people say this, but I act older than my age. I guess I don't think there is a rule by how "people should act" when theyare what age or whatever, but let's just say I'm more mature. wink.gif

I'm 18, but i'll be 19 on November 30th
Woah, its weird to see people on here born in 1990... I was already in kindergarden by then... *thinks about 1990* huge gingerbread men are cool... no wait... I guess that would have been 1989 when we made those... But I did see "Sesame Street on Ice" in 1990! Oh! And I was a Ninja Turtle for Halloween in 1990! Oh! And I had a Bart Simpson cake!

[FONT=Times] Hi
I'm almost 16. Ok not quite, my birthday's not until January, but I'll continue to tell myself that I'm really 16. Anyway, I was actually surprised to see the ages of all the people here. I expected more people younger than I am, not that I thought only little kids read HP. You'd be surprised how many older people can hold lengthy conversations about their own ships, even if they don't know that the term to use is ship. I'm glad to see so many people of different ages can come together about something we all have in common. I honestly don't know that many people who haven't read at least one HP, and most of those that have love it. Not quite as much as I do I guess...lol
