Another user tried (but failed) to set up a poll on age differences, this was following on from the (hilarious) Mrs Robinson scandal in Northern Ireland.
However it would be unfair to specifically target ladies and their toyboys, there are Sugar Daddies and their girls.
Are these relationships
1- genuine relationships
2- an outward sign of a mid-life crisis,
3- a trophy partner
Why is society reasonably okay with the older-man/younger woman but the Mrs Robinson syndrome of older lady/younger guy seems to be a no no.
Not so long ago in the days of arranged marriages or when the mortality rate was higher it was not unusual to find older men married to younger women.
I voted for the 10yr mark.....this is only a personal preference though.
And only in the older than me bit....24.....try as i might...i cant get my head round it. Saying that....I have always preferred men younger than me....dont know why that is. My relationships with them have been more successful than my ones with older men.
2010 and we are still talking about age differences, so bloody what if older likes younger, and vice versa, when it comes to sex...
And if people are silly enough not to realise they are there for decoration purposes only, big deal, if they are enjoying themselves, fair play to them..
Having sex with someone younger or older is hardly callaed having a reationship, so what is the problem?
