That wasn’t what I said at all. The point was addressing your statement “If it’s something wrong, then it’s wrong for everyone, not just an age bracket. Otherwise it’s ageism.” Dating a 14 year old girl was fine when I was 14, but as a 40 year old, it is very widely considered not. To expand on that, many people would cast a well-deserved side eye on a 44 year old dating an 18 year old,. regardless of legal status.
Amazingly, I am aware of that. Whether it is legal or not is not the same thing as whether it is moral. And yes, I am entitled to my own opinions. 40/18 is just as fucked up as 40/14 in my view, and if you don’t like my opinion, good for you - that’s your opinion.

40/14 is illegal in most parts of the world. 44/18 is not illegal anywhere and the last part of your comment is prejudice.

No. Just, no. In fact, you are so off base you’re living on Pluto.
Besides, are you actually attempting to argue that grooming is not only okay, but a defensible behavior? Hint: it is not.
Two consenting adults are free to date who they want regardless of race, gender and, yes, age.
