Well, 18 is the age of consent here in California. At that age you can join the military and vote. Maturity levels differ, though, of course. There are 18 year old women who have already killed bad guys in Afghanistan. Still just kids? I don't know how old these women are, but they look young, some could be 18 or 19, especially the sergeant at 3:28, she looks young:
To me, 18 year olds are basically children. I'm not sure why you are trying to convince me otherwise. Why does it bother you that I wouldn't have sex with an 18 year old and that I consider them children. Showing me videos of 18 year olds killing people isn't going to change my mind.

ok, So what should the minimum age be for someone our age to be involved with, in your estimation? If you were born in 76 we're two years apart. Is is ((x/2 )+ 7)? So someone who is 25, that's ok, but 18 is not? I think it is a strange distinction. If you like them, and they like you, and no one is taking advantage of anyone (maturity level is good etc.), I don't see a problem.
What would you do if you found that you had romantic feelings for someone who happened to be 18? Be disgusted with yourself?
So you're saying there isn't such a thing as a cougar who is mainly interested in men around 21? 21 is only three years older than 18. It sounds to me like you are threatened by hot younger women, lol. There is no reason to be. Attractive is attractive, whether you are 50 or 18.
I am not threatened by anyone. I have 2 daughters, I know exactly how immature 18 year olds are.
Oh lookee another CD woman bashing thread in disguise.
Listen OP, I'm more interested in a man who becomes a woman for a week and is underpaid, sexually harassed AND bleeding all at the same time.
THAT'S an exercise in equality.
No, an exercise in equality would be women agreeing to give up their privilege of being the "pursued" as a default.
And you can go sell that stuff about a "wage gap" elsewhere. Its been debunked repeatedly. When adjusted for the choices that individual women make in the job market....any gaps in pay disappear.

So someone who's 70 who has a 37 year old daughter might say the same about women who are my age. Does that mean it is now immoral for me to be with someone 37?

While I suspect I'd be one of the rare few who tried, I couldn't rep you.

I'm sorry, I can't have a conversation with a person who just doesn't understand simple concepts. Have a nice day.

Like I said, to me, if you like them, and they like you, and no one is being hurt, that's all that matters.
