It would just be too much effort to date anyone younger than that, right? The older you get it kind've gets more muddled I guess. Like, when I'm 60 I could maybe see myself dating a 40 year old. That's a huge gap, of course, but a smart chick at 40 knows what the score is.

That said, in my mid-30s I did not have any desire to date girls a decade-plus below my age. Teenagers (some barely) just weren't on my radar. Well, unless I just wanted to strip them down and have them touch my hard cock through my tighty-whities. But then I would be a disgusting, gross, creepy immoral person. Or the next Republican Senator from Alabama.

But hey, Mary, Mother of God and Grace, was a teen and Joseph was an older dude, and they made baby Jesus. <-- actual, real defense. wtf

Thank gods for Marshall Space Flight Center and addabox, otherwise I'd write the whole fucking state off as a loss.
Never change man.

But as someone that is actually in the mid-thirties age group and actively getting back into dating, your points ring true about the decade plus age gap. It’s just too much to bridge, and I feel so downright creepy when I give it a shot on the rare occasion when one shows interest.

This whole sequence just shows how demonizing ideological divides just blinds people to just plain common sense and hunan decency.
