  • I personally can not see it. I don't have anything in common with someone that young. Although I believe that wise people come in all ages. I feel there are too many physical challenges to such an arrangement. There is documented proof of children being born deformed when old joins with young, but then again there are many cases to suggest their is no such physical limits. Then their is the social aspect. I mean what do we have in common? I have met many young people with differing views that goes against my more conservative stance in life. Then again I have met young people with views similar to my more conservative stance in life. They seem too rigid and well boring and lack a sense of humor.

    Humor is important between age groups. It is a sign of understanding. But when there is no understanding there really isn't a true relationship. But once again there are young people out there that surprise you with their maturity and their overall outlook on life.

    My point is even though I prefer a woman close to my age. I do not feel the need to judge a union between young and old because in the end these unions happen and there is nothing that can be done to stop so why judge?

    I'm all for it then. Just not for me.

    The more important question is what do YOU think?

    I think it's disgusting.























    Disgusting that I don't have a 23yo woman interested in me.

    Saw this coming a mile away...

    Crazy but I wouldn't care if my daughter dated someone 42 when she's 20. Especially if she does find someone like her daddy. Someone who loves her, supports her, and makes her happy. As long as she's happy why should I worry myself?

    Your daughter should love HERSELF, be able to support HERSELF, and make HERSELF happy. Not rely on other people for love, support, and happiness. :grumble:

    Your partner is supposed to also love you, support you, and make you happy (within reason of course). If they don't your relationship won't last at least not in a healthy state. That's the WHOLE point of a life partner, so that you don't have to go through this life alone.

    You're both right...to disagree is just splitting hairs.
