    Interesting how women have zero agency in either scenario…almost like the commenter sees women as accessories to men 🤷‍♂️

    This sounds like someone who may or may not be in his early thirties trying to justify dating people half his age. Creepy AF

    Ah, the duality of womanhood. Should she be the victim of a pedophile or a sexual plaything for 50 dudes? Those are clearly the only two options.

      Plus there’s nothing wrong with having sex with lots of different people if that’s what she wants to do

        Right, like… It’s certainly more people than I’ve had sex with, but if you’re being safe, learning about yourself and what you want, not getting into any emotional issues (for either party), and yes… having fun, great!

        Also, 50 partners is like one per month through 4 years in college. Not totally outrageous to be honest.

          Everyone is different, but is defintly a health risk, both physically and mentally (not only for women, also for men).

    “What woman wants” yeah here’s your problem. They don’t all want the same thing shocker

    And nobody in their right mind would want to see teenage tantrums on their partner at age of 33. I have seen a lot older guys dating women under 18 and let me tell you something. Those guys aint exactly mature or winners. Or then they are just creeps

      Some women want to be “run through” by 30-50 people

      Some women don’t

      It’s like they are…individuals

            Usually around 24-26. So not that old but definently old enough that they should be way more mature than those who they are dating

      Yup - if you see someone single over 30 and there’s not a good reason for it (work, military, study, trauma, recent break up) its probably because people their age see through their shit

    That’s assuming (a lot) about the 30 year old knowing more about “what women want” compared to their 16 year old self.

    When I was a kid I always assumed there would be a point in life where I’d feel like an adult. You don’t, you just get ground into the mould with responsibilities & stress!

    The only difference between me aged 30 & 16 is grey hairs & white knuckles. I know jack shit about “what women want”, other than “don’t be a dickhead”.

      It is like saying someone who has been divorced three times knows what is needed for a long term relationship.

      Experience does not always lead to understanding.

    I would rather see her make her own decisions

    Also, shouldn’t that 33 year old be mature enough to understand not to date 16 year olds?

    Half your age +7 rule my dude.

    “the life experience to know what women want long term” hey dude a 65-year old woman has the life experience to know what men want long term. Why not go date a cougar?

    Or how about be a parent and model for your child how to make good, healthy decisions with their power of reason (however that looks for your family) and trust them to figure it out.

      If a teenager wants to date a 33 year old, that is obviously bad parenting. At that age she should be married for at least 7 years to someone to someone with real life experience, like a great uncle. /s

      More like,

      “I’m a 33 year old (virgin?) who has no idea what it’s like to be a woman, seeking a girl young enough to not realize that my ‘relationship maturity’ is that of a 16 year old and I’ll certainly give her plenty of emotional baggage. Also, if I ever become a father I’m going to make my daughter wear a purity ring. And no college.”
