That has nothing to do with 40 year old men creeping on teenage girls.

It's almost like there's a false equivalence for the women in the meme being upset that men think young women are attractive versus them being creeped on by creepers while pretending like women don't do the same damn thing lol.

Unwanted advances is something completely different than "guys talking about how 35 year old women are upset that men their age want 18 year olds". While ALSO falsely attributing it to jealousy.

The women are pretending like 18 year olds aren't attractive. They are, scientifically, and culturally. You can be old and appreciate pretty people. Vilifying that is getting into fucked up Roman Catholic levels of guilt & self-hate lol.
