My work colleagues are in their mid 40s & 50s (male) and they made me feel like I’m the same age as them at work what should I do?

How do they make you feel the same age as them? When you are at work you get thrown in with people of all ages. You work with them as co-workers and their age has nothing to do with it.

Well he has a son 22 yr old and they said the rest of us can’t handle alcohol anymore I’m closer to his sons age than them

Sounds like they consider you an equal. Do you want them to be condescending and treat you like a kid?

I've had work colleagues and friends of all ages - younger and older - and never thought about their age. I just treated them like people.

Embrace the opportunity to learn from your colleagues. Use this chance to absorb their wisdom and experience while also bringing your unique perspective to the table. Establish open communication about your views and ideas. You could also initiate conversations about topics that interest all of you, inspiring a blend of perspectives. Balance contributing fresh ideas with learning from their experience. This will foster mutual respect and help you maintain your identity. Your unique insights, combined with their wisdom, can create a powerful dynamic that benefits your professional growth and the team.

Is there anything to do? They seem to be treating you equally, so that is good and isn't that what feminism wants?

I tend to hang out more with older guys because they have done more than I have and have greater life experience so I gain from them. So that is an attitude to take.

I don't see the problem. If they treated you as a hot girl and wanted sex with you than you would have reason to complain.

I'm confused. Are you expecting special treatment instead of just equal treatment?

If so, need I remind you that feminism fought for this.

Since you feel your co-works treat you like a peer, you may want to consider transferring to a different department where you can be recognized for your sex, age, looks, and not your merits.

What do you mean what should you do
