When people talk about they were “just figuring out who I was” in their late 20s and such, that seems crazy to me.

I guess it has to do with where I’m from and how I grew up. There, if you’re like me, you’re forced to figure out who you are far, far earlier than that. That’s why this thing that mostly (some) women claim — the “Oh, I was just a tiny little baby until I was 30, I can’t be held responsible for anything I did” — is not solely an attempt to evade culpability for mistakes in life but might be somewhat true.

Wacky. I can’t understand it but I guess it could be the case. Me, I knew who I was by the time I was 10. Had no choice, really.
