No. Now, if they've been dating for years, that'd be a different story.

Well... that'd be pretty disturbing if they have been dating for like 7 years.

I dated a 19 year old when I was 29.

Nobody knew unless we told them

Sad we had such a maturity gap because we actually seemed compatible

Did you feel that apparently "extreme gap in power"

He was 33 and I was 17

He was just a classic predator, made me feel special and loved when he really just wanted to F me... he could have just said that and I would have F'd him, but he felt like he had to manipulate me for whatever reason... He also shit talked me at every opportunity when I wasn't around lol.

Yes, it's much more likely for younger people to end up in a relationship with someone like this, though, I think. Now having that experience, there's no way I'll ever get involved with someone like that again. That's what I meant when I said there's a much greater chance for it to be unethical and that relationship experience matters more.

I lived something like this with someone with the same age as me. I was broke and I had nowhere to go. It's just that I consensually dated people 10 years older when I was 19 and I did not even feel remotely abused. I was 100% consensual. Same with my current boyfriend. I am sorry you lived that though.

22 with early 30s seems better than 19 and 26.

Technically is started at 20 and 29. A bigger age gap

The hell? Don't even worry about it dude. Lots of people's parents (especially back in the day) had a ten year age gap or damn near and it was just normal. It's not like you just picked her up fresh out of high school or whatever, at 22 she's already been around the block a time or two and knows what's up. If you guys are into each other that's all that matters, you're both adults here.

I think women will always get the most butthurt about this since guys have a tendency to go after younger women and they know they're getting older and aren't getting the same amount of attention. I've seen a lot of guys on here get mad about it too though. After reading some of the posts here I honestly have no idea at what age a woman stops being a helpless child, but I'm thinking it's like 30+ according to some people lol.

It has a much higher chance of being unethical. I was 17 turned 18 in a "relationship" with a much older guy and he was 100% preying on me. At the same time, I had a strictly sexual relationship with an older guy the same age and it was fine... I feel like it has more to do with relationship experience than age once people start getting to be 18-21.

What was the age difference? Btw we have been dating right now for almost 2 years, I am sorry about what you lived, but it might be more of a problem with the person you are dating than the age gap.

No, I feel like this opposite. This was not a judgment on you, but on the people getting offended(and people close to my age were offended as well).

If both are over 18 it doesn't matter. If anyone tells you otherwise assume they are a jealous incel

It was mostly women who seemed outraged... and also mostly women who defended it and thought it should be ok.

I could not help, but laugh a little at the fact that one of the outrage warrior looks like the ultimate stereotype and was "agender" on her profile.

That's a pretty dumb reason to be offended. I am with a 22 years old while in my early 30 and it kinda made me feel like shit. Some even called it "pedophilia". I would never ever harm a child wtf.

Hey, man, she has loved ones that would be upset if something happened to her.

Yes. As much as I cannot stand Anita Sarkeesian, I do not wish her harm and I think it would he disrespectful in a hypothetical situation in which she died to start insulting her on articles about her death.

I am not saying you should never say anything bad about dead people. But I just personally feel like their is a place and time for everything. Let's say someone I hate die. I might say it to PRIVATE FRIENDS that I didn't like that person. I won't go into rants on social medias.

But them doing bad things would change my opinion on them and would never be able to be taken away. Yeah, I might still care about them in some way, but throwing up blinders because they're your loved one is not right. Why should the good of everyone live on but their bad die with them?

It's not about them.

TBH I hate how people glorify artists and athletes and defend truly hideous behaviour just because they entertain people.

If a regular joe rapist died people wouldn't be bullshitting how it's too soon and disrespectful to call them out for their actions post mortem.

Even if it was a regular joe, it's not about the dead person, it's about the close one. If one of your family member or friend committed a hideous crime. You won't suddenly stop caring about them. Their is people I could care less if they died, but out of respect of other people(not the people I despise) I just one say anything if they eventually die. After death, they cannot commit crimes anymore anyway.

Its honestly disgusting how some people are acting over this. The man just died in a tragic accident and people want to bring up something that happened over a decade ago within 2 days of him passing to say "oh he wasn't as good of a person as you thought". Like really if that's the kind of mentality you have you need to grow up and let the dead rest for awhile before going for hot takes like this. Its like people revel in negativity and can't at least appreciate the good the person did in life before trying to tear someone down after their gone.

Even in the hypothetical situation that he was guilty. Doing shit like shit won't hurt the hypothetical criminal. It will just hurt close family members. Even terrible people have loved one and I feel like we should think about collateral damage before doing something like her. What she is doing is not activism, just disrespect not to him, but people close to him.

(I expect people to throw stones at me for what I have said)

It seems that even a few of her actual non trolling followers were calling her out on it.
I have to wonder why she even has the small amount of followers she does have.
There are plenty of feminists out there who don't have a gimmick of "white man bad/men in general bad"

It's kind of sad because I have met genuine feminists who actually cared about equality and because of people like Anita, they usually get associated with bad press despite the fact that plenty of them don't act like the "feminazi" stereotypes

I know their is plenty of feminists who are genuines in their belief and I even saw some saying they wanted to dissociate with her. I am not pro cancel culture, so I'd say no. But she is such a garbage human being that I think she would deserve to be.

I am starting to have a receding hairline and I am way too self aware about my weight even thought pretty much everyone around me tell me I am not fat. They are probably right, but I used to have a 6 pack. I feel like I have some mental issues sometimes.

it is weird to discuss custody as something harder for men or women when kids are the ones who suffer.

I won't lie, you have a point there.

Surprised no one has mentioned family court yet. Anything to do with custody of children; or in some states the man is automatically responsible for alimony payments even if the relationship was ended due to physical assault and violence by their partner.

Barring family matters though, or societal expectations for dating, the list is likely quite short.

I got no clue how it works, but I know a guy who told me he easily got custody of children.

I think overall women have it harder than men, but that sometimes women underestimate how much it's harder for men to meet new women.(Even as a gay guy, I feel like I do not have to make much effort compared to my straight friend through grindr).

They also underestimate peer pressure from dumb mentalities like "real men should not show their feelings".
