    69-year-old Dutchman starts legal bid to become 20 years younger

    (CNN)Lying about your age on dating websites is usually considered a bit of a faux pas.
    Now a 69-year-old Dutchman wants the courts to make him officially 20 years younger, likening the change to identifying as transgender.


    Emile Ratelband has launched a legal bid to change his age by 20 years in order to improve his chances with women on dating applications like Tinder and help with job prospects, according to reports in Dutch media.
    "You can change your name. You can change your gender. Why not your age? Nowhere are you so discriminated against as with your age," Dutch paper De Telegraaf quoted Ratelband as saying.

    On Monday, he asked a court in his hometown of Arnhem, in the east of the country, for his date of birth to be changed from March 11, 1949 to March 11, 1969.

    He told the court that he "suffers" as a 69-year-old and has been feeling "20, 25 years younger" than his official age, according to Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad.
    According to the newspaper, the court is skeptical about Ratelband's case as there is no legal precedent in this area. It is due to make a ruling in four weeks.

    Ratelband, whose website describes him as a personal development entrepreneur, told De Telegraaf he is a "young god" and said a change to his legal age would help him live life with gusto.
    "If I put on Tinder that I am 69, I will not get a response...[As] 49, with that face of mine, then I'm rammed," he said.
    Correction: An earlier version of this story misstated Emile Ratelband's preferred date of birth.

    The World IS your oyster.
    Once cocooned under rainbow-flag-umbrella; oneself is
    under limitless societal protection from myriad of [imagined] discriminations.
    When will I get the guts to exploit this nuveau regeneration trick?
    The 'Here Comes The Judge' episode is eagerly awaited.

    Cheers,
