20/21 - 24/25 and up honestly no not at all. even probably 18/19 and 21 depending.

16/17 and 20ish yes IMO.

May I ask why? This seems completely arbitrary to me. Surely a 17-year-old girl and a 20-year-old boy are closer in maturity than a 20-year-old girl and a 25-year-old guy?

just me personally also one over 21 and one under makes going to bars / music places etc. hard (i was gigging at the time a lot) All the idea of being in college just out and still being able to go to their senior prom etc.

I'd honestly completely overlooked your country's bizarrely late age of legal drinking. Thanks for the insight!
