    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.

      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.

        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.
