Re: To "get carded"??Posted by Bruce Kahl on August 03, 2000 In Reply to: To "get carded"?? posted by Patty on August 03, 2000 : I recently read something that talked about someone who "still gets carded" and the context made it seem like this signified sexual attrativeness. : Anyone know what the expression means and how it was derived? : Patty If you have to be 21 years old to drink in your part of the world and you dont look 21 years of age you will "be carded"----you will be asked to show proof of your age which is usually your drivers license. It used to be, at least here is the US, your draft card that a male would show. Just a guess but I think that is where the "card' part of your phrase is derived.
