It’s so disgusting to try to dehumanize women by describing sexual activities they (supposedly) engaged in, too. Notice she goes for (egads, gasp!) anal, here. The last taboo for the proper woman! ::eye roll::

It’s kinda gross that every couple of years Bloom ditches whatever woman he’s with for one a few years younger. He’s almost 40 and has seemingly never been with a woman older than 25. Says a lot about how he must value women, their attractiveness and suitability as partners as they age.

Why do you care so much? It’s not gross, but it is fucking pathetic.

she has terrible taste in everything.

I turn thirty in a month and I definitely think the age difference (of all the couples mentioned - KJ, KN, SO) is disconcerting. The way I look at it is it doesn’t really matter how much of an age difference, but it does matter where people are in their lives. A parent (Orlando, Kourtney, Kate) is in a very different…

Those women are bigger than that. I promise you.

Wow, this is really upsetting you.

I’m wondering that too—I’m 32. So I’m 9 years older than Selena and 7 years younger than Orlando Bloom. I also teach MA students and can see how differently the fresh-out-of-college students think and act than my second-career students who are in their 40s and up. It’s just a massive gap. I think you’re right.

If you go through your list of past loves and they are all losers, the one thing they all have in common is.....

Are you around Orlando’s age? Because I am and completely share your thoughts, but held the same views as the people who are arguing with you when I was Selena’s age.
Maybe we (everybody) feel super grown up and adult when we’re in our twenties, but once we’re near forties, see how naïve or inexperienced we were?…

Good luck to you dude! People on here get reeeeeeeal defensive if you say big age differences are weird. Never mind that talking about how lame Dicaprio and Depp are is practically the site’s designated pastime.

I’m not infantilizing women. I made it clear in my second post that I think this is an issue whenever older people date significantly younger people. I suppose other people will see that though; I’m done here.

Mai Bacon is the best name ever.

Yeah, good point, interesting article, mirrors the cuurent landscape except now we’d all be Photoshopped and social media-shamed, blah blah blah.... BUT:

Oh my god that joke... I love it!

Selena Gomez seems like the Kidz Bop version of his ex-wife.

I didn’t know about those other relationships. But yeah, a 39 year old dating a 23 year old is gross in my opinion. Regardless of the genders. 23 year olds are not children, but they are less experienced at life, less independent, and less self-possessed. They’re still figuring out their values. A 39 year old knows…

Poor Katy has like the worst taste in men.

Can I think it’s gross if I also found the other examples you used gross too? I am skeeved by large age gaps in relationships until everyone is over 40 and has had a chance to live in their skin a while.

The age difference is gross. That’s about all I can muster for this meh-ness.
