Who the hell cares? So long as both parties are legal, what difference does it make?

That would be 19 years my junior or, roughly, old enough to be my daughter. Probably not a good idea.:lol:

for me that technically works a little younger than I go though.
I do +10/-5. I go as high as 38, or as low as 23. I have no interest in anyone over 40, or under 20.

Are you kidding me? My DH is only 4 1/2 years younger than me and I feel like I'm raising another child...that never grows up...:lol:

So you could go as low as 17 without any significant problem?

In general folklore it's a good way to explain to your son how to say out of trouble. Legally, not so much when the girls dad gets pissed.

Hey, I never thought of it that way...except I couldn't keep up...if ya know what I mean...:2razz:

Alabaman Republicans prefer half your age minus 2.

It's not an illegality thing it's a socially acceptable thing.

It's not an illegality thing it's a socially acceptable thing.

It depends on what social circles you walk in.
I'm 55 and would have no problem going to dinner with a well rounded mature 29 year old. Going out in other countries would be even more acceptable.

True story.

My grandfather's uncle married a woman who was 40 when he was 20. Keep in mind my grandfather was born in 1917. They were married for over 50 years.

 

[Winchester]

Oh. BTW :lol:

How about we all agree to a rule that sexualizing kids is indecent and wrong, marital fidelity is something to admire, and that who people of consenting age are attracted to is their business and nobody else's?

No, bad idea. :lol:

My daughter is 28, I'd be looking at 32... weird to say the least.

 

[lefty louie]

I'm 40, Sally is 10, I'm 4 times her age, she waits 5 years and I'm now 3 times her age, we wait 15 more years, I'm 60, Sally 30, now only twice her age, how long until she catches up? Badump bump.

So you're in the as long as it's legal camp it's socially acceptable? Do you have a line? Like 70 and 18? Tony Randall?

I'm not any more interested in dating a 32 year old as I am dating a 93 year old.

Hard pass on both.

We have laws. We have a phrase called the age of consent. Do we need anything else?

My grandfather and grandmother were 15 and 21 when they married in 1907...perfectly acceptable back then...

Silly idea, interesting to see people that think they can pick who they will or will not date or marry, it never works out that way.

Try the formula for oldest dating partner using 52 as your age and get back to me............

half you age plus 7 plus is guideline to determine how young you can date...

So a 90 year old can go as low 52... happy?
