Maturity is not a stage in life but it is continuum. A woman who is 30 would tell you that 25 year olds are “babies” and should not be taken seriously. 25 year olds would do the same for 20 year olds. The point is that, after 21 and if the woman is mentally mature, her choice of partner should not be looked down on.

I agree that there should be age relation to ensure that both parties enjoy their relationship. It is odd for a young woman in her 20s to be with a man in his 40s due to their different stages in life. However, i dont think this should be black and white.

You wrote, “So much change happens in your early 20s and it's a lot harder to go through those changes authentically if you have an older partner that could influence the path you take”. This can be dangerous. For example, a young woman goes through things “authentically” and decides to do Onlyfans or make poor decisions. When she gets to an older age, she could regret it because she lacked the adequate guidance to not ruin her future.
No offence but my stance on this issue was not up for debate. This is not the debate forum. It was a piece of advice meant for OP to interpret as she deems fit. If you're okay with a 21 yr old being with a 35 yr old, that is your opinion. I am not okay with that and will never be okay with that, and I don't entertain discussions trying to justify that imbalance.
Thank you.
Thank you.
No problem. All the best.

Thank you for posting this. I think it perfectly encapsulates a lot of what I've been trying to explain
please just stay away from the older men. They could groom you. You are perfect the way you are, it's not your fault."
Wide sweeping statements about age groups - males or females isn’t fair to my mind
The social pressure against large age gaps is also a relatively modern thing (and probably widening again a little) because historically it was quite normal to marry off the daughter to a relatively older man.
