In Japan, a 39-year-old man identifies himself as a 28-year-old by calling himself “trans-aged”
Japanese man Jackie announced this on a local TV show, revealing that he felt uncomfortable being 39 years old, so he decided to be 28 years old.
Jackie’s idea to become trans-aged was inspired by a conversation with his boss at work. During one of the conversations, the boss asked: “How can you not know how to do this at your age?”
Such words really hurt the man, causing him to choose an age at which he would feel more comfortable. That’s how he “twisted” his 11 years.
