  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

I'm 46 and married, but if I was single, I absolutely wouldn't want someone almost 30 years younger than me. We'd have so little in common! I suppose if you just look at women as objects to stick your dick into...

I’m dating someone 8 years younger than me and the only way I think it works is that she likes me enough to learn all the references I make she doesn’t understand.

My wife is only 2ish years younger than me, and she already doesn't get some references purely through upbringing. Only a couple things have been "before her time"

However, her best friend recently turned 24, married to someone who just hit 21. It feels like talking to children.

And since between the 2 of us we have 12 nieces and nephews under 15 and I speak to them whenever we're visiting I feel like I can say with a little certainty, it reeeeally feels like talking to children sometimes.
