HAHAHA okay dude. I didn’t use “icky” because that’s a dumb word but my first comment said it was creepy. And yeah, lots of people cared and asked me to explain. So I did. I’m sorry you see me responding to people as a negative, but I don’t feel that way. If I have the time and someone wrote me a long comment I…

It's possible I guess. He's really playing the long game though.

That’s right! Much more recent examples thank you. And yeah I'm not a big Leo fan but he gets so much hate for dating younger women and that age difference is nothing compared to this. Must be misandry!!! (Jk jk)

I’m sorry but LOL, to “this is why you are getting multiple comments” I’m getting tons of comments because this is a Tuesday on gawker/Jezebel. I never said I had insider knowledge of their relationship. I was asked why a 50 year age gap would be creepy and I explained my reasoning. The fact that everyone took that as…

You’re right I don’t know him. And I do think 50 years is too damn much. And I’ve had lots of people politely ask me to elaborate as to why I think 50 years is creepy and selfish of the older person. So I did. I’m sorry if my explanations made it seem like I had direct knowledge of their relationship. I do not. For…

Yeah I can see that. I still see it that way though. If a 75 year old man started dating my 25 year old sister I would see it as predatory. I see no reason to view this differently because it's a young man instead of a woman.

Thinking a 50 year age gap is creepy isn't a prejudice. That's an opinion. I'm not stopping anyone from doing anything, I'm not saying we should have laws against it. I'm not saying these two shouldn't get married. I'm saying an age gap that huge is rare for a reason: because it usually indicated an unhealthy…

Oh I don’t believe all love is selfish, I think people use love as an excuse to be selfish.

Oh I don't think he's a gold digger. I was pointing out how differently young women vs young men are treated even on a feminist blog.

I can tell how much you do not care by the fact that you took the time to comment. You really showed me.

How am I in his business? This why we keep going in circles here! I am not sending hate mail to him and his fiancé. I think 50 years is too big of an age gap and I said so on a gawker blog, that’s the extent of this. That's not in his business at all.

I’m actually glad to hear that. I still think a 50 year age difference is problematic, but I am sorry that you read my comments. I mean that sincerely. I don’t know him and he’s public enough to have a news article written about him so it’s easy to forget that people that know him personally could be reading and feel…

Thanks! I don’t think I’ve ever won asshole comment of all time before! I'm so lucky you were here to bestow it upon me!

Absolutely. There’s all sorts of mitigating circumstances right? Maybe the younger dude was exceptionally mature. Maybe he never wanted a family. I’m not saying that can’t be the case, I’m saying that on the face of it a 50 year age difference is a huge issue. And he completely glossed that over in his essay. He…

Ha! I actually own no pearls but clever dig.

Oh yes of course! And it sounds like you were a wonderful daughter. You put aside how you felt and accepted her as a member of the family, if not by the “stepmom” title. Forgive me for not understanding your tone! It can be tricky online sometimes!

I have no issue being criticized, if I didn’t want that I wouldn’t have commented at all. You told me to mind my own business. But the entire point of a comment section is to comment. I'm commenting on a news article, I'm not literally inserting myself into their lives.

I didn’t say “This is my opinion” as a way to qualify what I’m saying. I was saying that to people that seemed to think I had a LITERAL say it what happens between these two men. I was saying it to people that seemed to think me commenting on Gawker is the same as protesting their wedding ceremony.

Hahaha persecuted?! I’ve never said that anywhere. I haven’t felt persecuted or threatened at all. People disagree with me on a blog. And? It’s a Tuesday.

Why would that make you not a good person? I don't understand.
