Why does it trigger people, especially women, so bad when older men have sex with young women?

From my experience, some men, and a lot of women seem to handle it really badly if an older man dates or sleeps with a younger woman.

For example I am 52 and have a 22 year old Fwb. This really triggers women and they hate a lot, say lot nonsense and make excuses. Interestingly they tend to support older women with young men.

So what's their deal?

Is it past negative experiences? That's understandable, but it seems more of some kind of insecurity coming from older women and prejudice coming from younger women. Especially considering how hypocritical lot of them are.

For men who hate I can see the same points as for women plus they are jealous of the older man.

A lot of it is probably due to the more prevalent examples where it is inappropriate.

I remember being 22 and I did things to experiment and understand.

As long as you understand you won't be one of her proud choices looking back, if you're both getting something out of it, why even tell anyone unless you're bragging about it.

@ScreamingFox no you are negative without knowing anything about us.

That's called ignorance. It's perfectly reasonable to attribute your ignorance to bias or prejudice.

@ScreamingFox if you wouldn't care then you wouldn't be here in the first place acting like you know it all.

I think you sound insecure about your age, and can't stand older men having fun with young women. This is a trend among women. It's beyond petty.

@jshm2 there is no stigma against you because you are a young man. It's completely different scenario in my case.

For me I was never interested in someone whos was closer to my dads age than to my own.
If I had a young daughter, I wouldn't want her being with someone I could have a conversation about social security with in the next 5 to 10 years.

Why is it anybody business who you sleep with, as long as you both are fine with it?
I am 24 and prefer older men, dont see the problem 🤷
Societal standards will dictate their reaction. I do my best not to judge, but if she's 19 I'm gonna have questions. 25 is usually okay, but 19 seems kike a red flag.

@GohantheThird 25 year old would have nothing in common with a 52 year old outside of sex either just like if they were 19,so there's no difference in common interests.

What we have in common is sex. Our desires. I am surprised so many people don't catch this up it's weird.

It's understandable some find it weird if she's just out of high-school, I get that, but they are still adults.
@Bigboy600 fair, but don't you want something long term? I feel like a 25 year old would be more relatable at that point. I just want someone who atleast as seen part of the century I've lived. A 19 year old would have no clue.
Bigboy600 · 51-55, M
@GohantheThird no I used to be married, I don't want anything long term anymore.

Casual sex is for me and all you need is being able to consent and know what you are doing. Anyone over 18 can do that.

My 22 year olds are just fine for me though.

As a 52 year old, how do you have a 22 year old right hand?

@beermeplease because you are jealous of the Karens?
@Bigboy600 you should fix your age range in your profile to the rightful age group
Bigboy600 · 51-55, M

I thought you had two 22 Year olds?
Bigboy600 · 51-55, M
@Prettybratbi1tch yes I was just giving example
So confused right now why you even care

@Nunlover
Oh! Well that's probably because he's been negatively influenced early in his life to seek approval in what he does before he can feel validated. Narcissistic parents will typically leave this lasting scar on a young person.
@swirlie or is he just bragging 🤔
swirlie · 31-35
@Nunlover
No, I don't think he's bragging, I think he's just expressing what I'll call "wishful thinking".
makes em feel redundant..

trade 'er in for a new model...

Micheal Douglas / Catherine Zeta Jones come to mind, it seems to be more acceptable, if you’re a wealthy man

@Bigboy600 she wasn’t when they got together
ididntknow · 56-60, M
Bigboy600 · 51-55, M
@ididntknow oh right I guess people don't care when she's pushing 30 or past 25

Its only about young people

People should mind their business and talk about you behind your back like a normal person.

The only women who have issues with older men having sex with younger women, are women who are not included in any of that action.
swirlie · 31-35
@Bigboy600
There's your answer! You don't need to care about what other men think, nor should you give a dam what women think. Just do what YOU think is right for YOU!
Bigboy600 · 51-55, M
@swirlie it's still nice to have people support you.
swirlie · 31-35
@Bigboy600
True, it can make you feel good, but you don't NEED other people's support to succeed.
