i think that was a hint at her actually being older then she is

she was supposed to be 10 when she met charles. yet if thats true then beast is wrong

but if he is right that means she is actually older then she looks she is supposed to be what 20. so that means she is actually atleast 40.

all though in the comics she was supposed to be as old if not older then wolverine.

she is older than professor x. she is from at least the early 20th century

you're forgetting that mutants are not born mutants, they are born as regular humans and only become mutants at puberty.

therefore Raven was around 10 years old when she became a mutant and escaped from her family who wanted to kill her because she suddenly turned into a blue freak.

so she was still only 10 years old just as she looked when she met Charles

Honestly I just assumed they added that in to explain why she still looks young in the other X men movies years later

That's pretty much the reason.

That's what I figured as well.
