Long story short, Steam asked me to enter my date of birth, and because I'm an idiot, I told them I was born in 2010. Does anyone know if it's possible to change this, otherwise I wont be able to buy Mass Effect 1 and 2 for 18 years. Which sucks.
Edit: Trying to see the silver lining, steam now thinks I'm -2 months old.

Go into internet explorer and clear its cache/cookies.
IIRC that worked for me a while back

Steam has asked me my date of birth on several occasions, so I'm fairly certain you can undo this. Hell, if you don't have any games already, you can go to the last resort of just making a new account.

It will ask you every time you go to do it until you put in a young age and then it locks it in and wont ask you again.
Ooh. Well that's.. that's just a really ****** system right there.
No, the same thing happened to me when I was trying to buy Borderlands.
I accidentally selected 1998 as the year and it would not let me in until I closed my browser (cookies/cache clear on close)

Took about 10 minutes to clear the cookies/cache, so I should probably do that a lot more often. It worked too, which is awesome. Now to figure out why they wont take my payment information.
Having a valid credit card helps.

I was using Pay pal, but my Pay pal account isn't registered to a Canadian address, because the card its linked to isn't registered to a Canadian address. Even if I un-check the box that says "I am currently living in the country stated above" It asks me to enter new details because it wont take it unless I'm living in the country that my card is registered in.
