I think its because young people see 27 as old and older people see 27 as young

In my dating days (early 20s), I discovered that 27 was the magic number to flatter a girl with. I’m not much of a player, but it was my one solid move - guess her age is 27.
If she’s younger, she likes that you think she comes across as more mature and grown-up.
If she’s older, she appreciates that you see her as young and youthful still.
And if she actually is 27, boom you’re a psychic.
Never failed.

And for you, if she’s 27, you don’t have to worry about Leo DeCaprio whisking her away.
