I agree with everything except the part where I went to college at mostly expected ages. I dated a 19 year old when I was 22, which is the largest gap I've had in that direction, my girlfriends are typically older.
Technically, the Twilight actors were always legally adults I'm pretty sure, but I've heard people say Edward is a pedo in the books cause of his extremely old vampire age or something.
A lot of people play baskbetall in the gyms here, even in seasons SFA doesn't go to the round of 32. If I tried now I'd get my ass kicked if my shots were contested, but I still make a mean H.O.R.S.E. player. 
I suck at football sims, but b-ball sims I'm ok with, and I'm decent in arcadey sports titles.
My friends lift and go to competitions all the time, but they have other interests. In fact, we tended to talk about philosophy when weight lifting together. Austin shares my interest in video games and movies, though not genres, and Wes likes watching wrestling and Game of Thrones. Tell your lifting friends to be more interesting. lol
There's gotta be lifters that like playing FPS games at the very least I would think.
It really should be determined by mental, not physical age, but as of now that's subjective, so having a cut-off for what age you can sleep with based on general maturity makes sense.
I don't know whether teens are or aren't more babied now, so no comment there. I know other countries have lower ages of consent I don't really disagree with. To me the gap is more troublesome. A 50 year old dating even a legal 18 year old is pushing it, but an 18 and 16 year old? Eh, I can barely tell the difference.
The geographic location and people in Russia are fine, obviously I meant Putin and their government, who have always had WAY more problems than just the gay thing.
Yeah, we have our own bullshit, but I don't believe we're as bad as Russia in many regards.
Thank you. lol
Game looks fun. Oddly enough, both it and Alex's avatar reminded me of this:
But really I want a good sequel to Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem.
Home Improvement II: Tim Allen's Tapper
That's too bad video gaming is looked down upon by other people in what you do. It's not like no one who plays video games goes outdoors or works out from time to time. Why I've even known people who are good at sports and like playihg Zelda! 
Good luck with everything, man. I need to get back into basketball. Watching my college (SFASU) get as far as they did reminded me of how much fun I used to have shooting hoops by myself, for the school, or with the neighbors as a kid. I was always a great shot, but never a physical player. Now that I'm more into working out regularly, I can change that I think.
Congrats!
