AFAIK Ben Franklin preferred old women. And I mean old. Like over 70. Lots of letters to people telling them how widows are the best partners because they know what they're doing. And that they're more open to threesomes/foursomes.
Isn't there a fairly well documented history of him raping his slaves? He may vocally advocate for older women fun, but dude fucked pretty much anything with two tits, a hole, and a heartbeat.
I just did a look see and while I saw it broadly asserted a few times on social media I can't find any specific allegations like we have with Jefferson who is positively known to have fathered children with slaves.
I might be mixing them up.
