Is it weird people use this reason to justify why age gap is wrong?

Question

I see some people say age gaps are wrong because the older person, usually a man is much stronger than a young woman eg 20.

This makes no sense because the man will nearly always be stronger than a woman regardless of age, yet people don't say it to hate on couples of same ages or close ages.

See that's the whole thing when you say some people say or think? First of all it's none of there business if the 2 people are happy that's all that matters... and to the person Who has an opinion. If you pay attention to them, you'll find out that they have an opinion about everything even if it's right or wrong. And the ones that have the most opinion are ones that don't even date or can't date Are there boyfriends or girlfriend broke up with them? I wonder why Probably because They had an opinion about everything except for their own relationship because they don't have one

People always try to justify reasons why something is right or wrong based on their own personal beliefs. People can believe whatever they want to believe , but it doesn’t make them right or wrong, it just makes them judgmental. Relationships are formed when 2 people choose each other and not give 2 shits about what other people think or say about their relationship, if they are both happy with each other , that’s all that matters

Age gaps are wrong if someone’s underage. Otherwise everyone as well as what they are looking for is different. Just because someone else’s relationship isn’t your cup of tea doesn’t mean someone else can’t be happy in it. It matters if both people are happy.

People will judge someone no matter what so just do what makes you happy. People become jealous of other people so they want to make them feel bad. Instead of focusing on finding whose right for them.

A lot of this is the weird notion that it's about mental and psychological strength not the physical side. They pay lip service to older women with young men (toyboys) with zero consideration of the predatory nature they keep pushing. It's NOT predatory as both are adults and those who think girls at 20 to 25 aren't adults should take their head for a wobble.
The idea that old folk are "better" at manipulation is an absolute projection of BS. They don't know the people involved and are trying to step on some morality high ground to stop older more stable, settled, wiser, better at knowing what they want, more competent etc. men going with young women who want to settle down and start families or have a stable comfortable life someone else can support them heading to their goals.

I've never heard physical strength tossed out there as the reason age gap relationships are wrong. Power and status yes. But the power that comes from wealth, not a gym workout.

More frequently people's revulsion are either based on religion and societal conditioning about what is expected and acceptable or it's older women who can no longer compete for men displaying jealousy and hate towards younger women and the men who are attracted to them.

Mostly they mean that older men are able to manipulate young women who were raised without much support. In my limited experience, when men over about 25 pursue teenagers, they are bad news. They are immature, and have no success dating women their own age.

Correct that reason is stupid, like you said and she is not forced, she stayed wanted him, but could dump him if he was bossy.

In fact a 30 age gal is in BETTER shape than men my age so SHE is stronger, the claim is false and as you said when both same age, always man stronger so not a factor.

That doesn’t justify the wage gap.

”a man is stronger than a woman”, okay… Then why is this prominent in industries regardless of physical ability? Car salesman, lawyer, working at office on a designated workspace / computer, manager, and so on.

Clearly, this excuse isn’t valid.

@emmil I'm 31 and my ideal woman is 24-25 yet could pass for 20 👀😛😈😋🥳 pale caucasians who like me stay out of the harsh sun, except for minimal vitamin D of cloudy days, to avoid rickets or bad bones, 🦴 🩻 so I get small sun

there's no way that's what they mean lol they're probably talking about the power imbalance mentally

Awantika03 · Answer

No one can justify, because a young girl even 16 can handle a older man, she can easily bear the pleasure pain. So it doesn't matter how old he or she

It is weird for exactly the reason you give.

soon when she finds herself a nurse to her grandpa husband, then she will realize why large age gaps are a bad idea. you can't grow old with someone who is already old.

I don’t think they mean physically strong as much as stronger willed and financially stronger

I've never heard this argument. I do gave a reason why my a significant age gap is wrong though. There are some outliers to this situation as well.
