People can lie about their physical age all they want, and on the internet, nobody can really tell. for sure. In an optimal world, nobody should have to *care* either.

But as soon as you start posting, your social/mental "age" is almost immediately obvious, no matter how hard you try to fake being older. A mature person can do a fairly convincing immitation of an immature character, but not the other way around.

I actually had no idea of your cronological age until now, and would have guessed at least 35. The apparent age is far far more important than the actual age.
