Today, I had to show my ID to prove I was over 18. I was buying teaspoons. FML

You won't be saying "FML" if you were to accidentally kill yourself with those spoons.

Apparently that store seems to sell teaspoons for some other purpose.

I feel you OP. I will be carded well into adulthood, and despite everyone's complaints that I should be happy about it, it feels like a curse. Let's embrace the suck together. On the other hand, I have no idea why you are carded for buying teaspoons.

Why do you have to be 18 to buy tampons in the UK?

You need an ID to buy tampons in the UK?! You don't even need your ID to buy pregnancy tests in America!

You don't need ID for either in the UK. Not usually anyway. Besides, where did you get tampons from? The FML is talking about teaspoons

They couldn't get away with requiring an id to buy tampons because girls can start their periods really young and it would be cruel to prevent them from buying something they absolutely need in order to avoid getting blood everywhere. Teaspoons on the other hand are non-essential but useful. It's arbitrary to require an id to buy them, but not cruel.

That's sad. When I was in the UK at 17, I was constantly offered alcohol without having to show my passport. I guess teaspoons are more of a responsibility than alcohol is.
