Damn, I could've sworn it's the opposite of immature.
EDIT:
Oh yes, thanks Centreri for clearing that up.

I only take into account a persons mental maturity and this tends to get me in trouble with "authority figures"

That's right, fight the Man.
I don't see physical mentioned anywhere in the definitions I pasted.
Also, as I said in the shoutbox "Adult inarguably can be used as a way to describe someone as mature. I often hear people say "He behaves like a little adult!" when describing a mature child." I think it's highly unlikely that they mean "He behaves as if he has reached his full physical maturity."
People can say it to mean either mental or physical maturity. In your example, yes, they're referring to mental maturity; however, in this particular case, where the judgement is
based solely off photographs, physical maturity is most likely what's being commented on. Personally, I find your hair ridiculous, and believe that you'd look far better, more adult and respectable with something less obvious and showoffish, but will admit that the photographs nevertheless portray you in a far better light than most of your webcam ones.

None.
When I said "very adult" I meant that in these photographs he looks somewhat older than in previous ones - more like a young adult than a teenager. Just to clear that up.

Don't worry, we all know that. Nerdy just likes to be difficult.

I told you my perceptions. Make all the arguments you want, you're not going to change them. Feel free to ignore them

I suppose I believe that people who feel a need to attract attention to themselves by provocative looks are compensating for not being interesting enough otherwise. Coupled with tidbits I know about you (you used to wear a Swastika just to shock people, at which point you'd tell them OH YEAH BUT IT WAS ALSO SOMETHING THE HINDUS USED), it doesn't paint a flattering picture - I believe that you really want attention.
Others may draw the same conclusion if you're too flamboyant.
