I decided to get more discussion going since this topic wont be hijacked with whose country is the best. I'm a fan of discussions, but if it is way off topic, prefer it have its own post and not hijack another one.
Anyway, thoughts on Society, and the whole... Dating younger deal.
Here is my question, when you were in high school, for those that are older and out, you probably had a few girlfriends. I know I had 4 or 5, and never did it cross my mind what her age was, because after all, we were in high school. Your girls are going to be 16, 17, and 18. MAYBE 15.
Now when I was a Senior I dated a freshmen, and it was no questions asked. We went to football games, dances, were in band together, etc etc.
So we all know, YES, people date in high school, or go out, or what ever. People do have relationships.
Now when your older like me, or even 21+ and you say... I think that 17yr old girl is pretty smoking, people go... Your going to jail (as a joke) or that's gross.
Now why is it gross? Cause your older? If you were 17 it wouldn't be gross or wrong. That girl may be dating someone or has in school, so what gives?
I even think about going from 17-18. How much of a difference is there in 1yr? Or what if she was 17 one week ago and now 18? Does she automatically have life figured out? NO.
I mean sure you have limits, and no one talks about dating a 11yr old, but at 17 and 18 I dont see what's wrong with it. Some 18yr olds are in college.
For instance, if no one knew my age, I could pull off going into a high school, and get yelled at for not having a hall pass when I graduated 10yrs ago. I would look JUST like they do, or even younger than some. I could go in there, sit in a class, mack on the girls, and they would think i'm a new student, no questions asked.
So because I am 9 or 10yrs younger why does that complicate it? I got my diploma... So what. I have a degree from college....So what.
Am I more mature, or supposed to be, so that's what makes it weird in people's eyes? You'll hear... You older guys are dirty old men. We aren't 40 or 50.
Aside from the whole topic on emotional garbage and mental crap on sex, I see nothing wrong with dating a woman that age 17 or 18. I did when I was that age, and I had a good time, and clicked with a few. In fact my BEST relationship was with the youngest woman I ever dated. NO ONE has even come close. So I cant say that all the younger ones are just crappy. She was 18 at the time and I was 23, and I had planned on marrying the woman.
Anyway, just some thoughts. People go... Oh she's just a baby, but did you ever say that in high school when you were 17? Sorry so and so... your just a baby, and I cant date you. Your the same age too idiot. Yeah well, what ever. lol
