40-Year-Old Man Claims He Only Dates Women Under 24—'Too Much Baggage When They're Older'

The author can't help herself from heaping vile on him:

While it’s possible to have a consensual relationship featuring an age gap, the fact that Ben refuses to date women after their brains have fully developed feels hugely toxic.

It’s also important to note that everyone has some level of baggage; it’s part of being a sentient person in the world. That Ben doesn’t want to date women with their own histories and life experiences tells of a larger toxic narrative of men not seeing women as having equally valid consciousnesses as them. Yet one hopes that the public outcry over his dating practices leads to some sort of change.

Good for the 40 year old guy. If he can pull 20-24 year old women, he needs to enjoy that while it lasts. He probably won't be able to pull off getting 20-24 year old girlfriends much longer.

I think their votes carry more weight. Suitcases full of weight.
