LOL Right now I'm wearing a pair of Linea dark brown cropped leggings with a long t-shirt.  I came home from church, took off my dressier clothing and changed into something comfy.  Age really doesn't enter into the equation for me.  I'm still a size 6 or 8 bottom so I think it's more a question of where I'm wearing leggings.  If I were larger I might feel differently about wearing them at all.  As it is, I'm home for the day and if someone drops by, I'm presentable.

Never owned any. SG once sold something called jeggings and I bought some. If memory serves, they were a tight, stretchy jean. Looked fine with a tunic.

never have. Also, wearing leggings requires a tunic and I don't wear those either

No; not a fan of leggings.

I wore them a couple times in my 40s but I don't think they're flattering on my current body. I'm in my 70s and have heavy legs with lumps and bumps. I don't think there's an "allowable" age to wear them, just if they look good on your body.

I wear them as lounge wear with a tunic. My legs are slim but I carry my weight in my stomach so the tunic covers it up. I do not wear them outside of my home, though. I, guess, my age of 72, keeps me from wearing them. I think it stems from growing up with fashion rules and how my grandmother always told me the older you are strive for elegance. Somehow, I think there is nothing "elegant" about tight, form-fitting leggings except at home or the gym.
