Drinking Age?

SWIM is curious as to what the general age is when other swimmers started drinking. How old was swiy when they began drinking/their social circle began drinking and what is the legal age for consuming alcohol?

SWIM is from australia where the drinking age is 18. SWIM would say most people begin drinking at around age 14 where he lives, as did he(~4 years before legal age). He would also say social status (rich/poor) has an insignificant effect on drinking age.

Swim would especially like to hear from swimmers in places like america, does the higher legal drinking age mean people only start drinking at around 17 or does the legal drinking age have no effect?
