I had to check "Other" since SL has only been around about 3 years and there isnt a 3 year old choice :)

I don't know. They don't really look like people. More like plastic dolls. Hardly any avs are very realistic, since to actually look like a person they would have to have skin blemishes and all sorts of undesirable traits.
I get freaked out by some RL people. There's this chick at my college who always has such a perfect complexion and such a perfectly combed hair... she just doesn't look human.

Sukkubus Phaeton looks like Pamela Anderson in monocrome, and even prettier in RL...

I voted for 14-38 :D I really have a terrible sense of age when looking at someone's outward appearance. I would have included ages under 14, since I see enough youngish looking avs that it does skew the average.

Plus, I'm a cat, how old can I be? ^.~

well, pi wasn't an option, but pie was. :D Your typical pie is maybe an hour old.. anything beyond that is in danger of being eaten. (refrigerated/frozen pies don't count - we're not talking cryogenic age-extending here ^.^)

Most people in clubs look around 40 to me. I look like I'm 20 or so, but if you point the camera at me the right way, I can pull off 70.

Hmm I would say 18-22 but maybe that's just my age of preference :D hmm, it's hard to say but i would think 20s in most cases except those weird animal avs and strange alien ones... oh yeah, and the occasional kid av? Well, tiny person or kid anyways... the tiny munchkin folk :D
