you don't think it's creepy when some 40 year old is dating 18 year olds?

see, I think there are social pressures, verbal and nonverbal cues, mores - whatever you want to call it, that aren't infantilizing a woman being creeped on by old assholes. they're expressing a discomfort with something that rarely succeeds and often disrupts normal development.

I'm old. I've never seen a 40 year old woman dating an 18 year old man. Ever. I've lived in 20+ states and 3 other countries. My experiences aren't evidence against, but they tell me enough; especially compared to the troves of women I know personally who were catcalled, propositioned, groped and more by men old enough to be their grandfathers, many not even women yet - girls.

So stop worrying about the 'infantilization', it's not a problem compared to the other end of the spectrum, where women and girls are being sexually objectified, groomed and harassed by grown men.

oh's no's - the creeps are upset by this posting, boo fuckin whoooo
