”You got older, ‘cause you’re good at life,

I’m all 17 at 35,

Now I don’t know if there’s anything else,

The DJ is crying for help”

What does it mean?

Transage is an umbrella term referring to those who identify with an age that somehow differs from their chronological (or physical) age. This term, despite popular belief, is not an excuse to have inappropriate relations with children. A lot of misinformation has been spread, and its very damaging to those who genuinely identify with it.

it is also known as altage, ageweird, agequeer, chrono-peculiar, and chronosian.

Why might someone identify as transage?

Plurality

Trauma

Neurodivergence

Spirituality

Age incongruence

Plurality, though extremely diverse, is a very common origin in one's transage identity. Headmates (aka; alters) often express disconnect from the body due to having varying genders, sexualities, and 'ages'. Due to this, many headmates express detachment or discomfort when it comes to the collective body.

Trauma and depression can have a significant effect on one’s mind and body; especially affecting children who have yet to fully develop. Science shows it can result in one’s body ''ageing faster'' or even cause one to ''mentally regress'' in age. Regression may also be a symptom of other mental illnesses.

Neurodivergence is another fairly common reasoning for one's transage identity. Especially affecting those who are autistic, have ADHD, BPD, or psychosis. There are multiple studies supporting this phenomenon.

Spirituality may be one of the least talked about within the community, but is an important addition nonetheless. Someone who is spiritual may feel disconnected from their physical age and are more connected to the age of their soul or how old they were in a past life they are still attached to.

Age incongruence is the disconnect between one’s chronological age and one’s internal sense of their age. This disconnect can be the result of any of the reasons listed above, and is often the primary component in ones identity. This incongruence can also result in age dysphoria, which is the discomfort or distress with the age characteristics one displays.
