    I disagree with all of them. I dress however I want and don't need anyones approval. I couldn't care less what other people wear or if a 42 year old wants to go to a music festival.

    Wearing crocs at any age should be a stonable offence

    I'm 38 and I had a ponytail up until four years ago. I got my hair cut so it would be easier to wash and feel more comfortable, not because of anyones opinion of me.

    And the way people apparently think 35 is the cut-off age for doing so.
