Don't take things the wrong way, but I think it has to do with the way one dresses. I'm married, 27 years old, and if I walk around without make-up in jeans & sneakers, I've gotten carded for R-rated movies, buying cigarettes, but never for booze. (Perhaps because people who booze a lot tend to buy beer looking disheveled??).
However, now that I"m in school setting, I dress the teacher role, so I never wear jeans nor sneakers, and I put on lipstick instead of chapstick. And nobody cards me for R-rated movies or cigarettes anymore.
