A 19 year old is not a boy. They are an adult.
Boyo - is used as a derogatory term and is used when questioning the respectablity or morale grounding / bad behaviour / etc, of a male person in Scotland - on the other hand can be any age .....from very young cheeky upstarts, to fully grown man in their advancing years
