Sure, perhaps in a particular case the 18 year old is at a disadvantage. It's certainly possible. Nevertheless, was there anything offensive in what I said? To engage in your point though, anything is possible, right? Maybe the older adult is at a more disadvantage in terms of resources but...

In a male or female lens, I don't think there is anything offensive that I said. In post #60, I did share my anecdotal perception on people I've engaged in discussion with over this particular topic and perhaps someone who fits in that description would be offended. This wasn't a personal attack...

I think polygamist women are mentally conditioned into it though. Often times, there is jealousy (understandably so) and strife amongst them. They learn to suffer in silence and are told to "stay sweet" any time they struggle with the complexities that polygamy brings. I'm amazed there are still...

Definitely not a Mormon as I speak out against their teachings and false prophet. This person is highly confused and chose to personally attack me rather than engage in a good faith discussion about age gap relationships. She offers no moral counter argument, only ad hominem.

Is this how you discuss/make your arguments? I'm a non-denominational Christian for the record. What made you so hostile for asking a valid question?

Trailer Sicko (2007) Free Entire Movie Michael Moore releases SiCKO for free, responds to being included in Luigi Mangione's manifesto Quote from Mangione's manifesto: "But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. "...

This is true when Republicans were fearmongering during/after the Bush admin, but seeing Democrats and Republicans in the same economic class coming together about the corruption that is going on here makes me think perhaps the majority of people are open to something other than privatized...

Kind of a banger honestly...

I'm a fan of the band but I don't know anything about him personally. Is there something outside of him being 60 years old dating an 18 year old woman that makes you think he's a creep out of curiosity?

From my anecdotal experience, I've noticed that most of the women who object to age gapped relationships use to date older men when they were young but are now watching younger women dating men her age now. As for the men I've seen speak against it, they tend to be older men who otherwise...

I understand the point that was trying to be made, but I want to know why it makes a difference at what age you meet the person provided they were a legal adult. I think it's a category error to label a 30 year old a "pedophile" for dating someone who is a legal adult (18+ for example)...

A better question would be asking for a moral argument against age gapped relationships provided we stick with anyone 18+. People often say "18-year-olds are children and not adults". Then my question is if you advocate for taking away their right to vote and forced military conscription since...

The OP is a time traveler from Early Modern English times. Gen Z'ers would think this is a foreign language altogether. Don't feel bad, I forwarded his post to the people from New King James and once I get the translation, I'll post it for all to see.

S.R. Hadden: "First rule in government spending: why build one when you can have two at twice the price?" Was that quote in the book? lol

Yes, I watched it as a kid when it first came out and watched it as an adult not too long ago so I could better understand it. Very underrated movie in my opinion.

One of my personal heroes (albeit an atheist) used this argument for why he personally didn't believe aliens come to Earth. However, Stephen Hawking did acknowledge that utilizing worm holes could make it theoretically possible. It's simply not in our reach as humans. This doesn't prove aliens...

Thanks for the correction. "That totally never happens" was sarcastic, but I'm unaware of the frequency a murderer writes a manifesto (which was reportedly on him) only to deny he did it. Murderers who never wrote a manifesto often times claim they are innocent... but that isn't what happened...

Yeah, it's odd that he had all the evidence (including the manifesto) with him at the McDonald's only for he and his lawyer to say he is innocent. Like what the heck?
