Why Do Men Date Younger Women?
Most men who are older and who get with younger teen girls feel as though those girls are more naive and easier to manipulate (sorry, but it’s true for the most part). I personally think it’s disgusting. I know many people in their early twenties and could not imagine them dating a 15 year old…unless they had bad intentions. I don’t know what on earth a grown man would have in common with someone who is just entering into high school and can’t even drive a car yet. If my daughter was 15 and said she was dating an adult, I would hit the roof! I think it’s okay once you hit adulthood and it’s LEGAL. But until then, I find it very disturbing.
Although the criticism of men in their early twenties seducing adolescent girls is well-deserved, let’s not forget young, beautiful, self-confident adolescent girls also have the power to seduce young adult men. One may say the young adult men should know better, but is it not known that many young adult men, especially those in college, have not grown one step beyond their high school years? They live within an extended moratorium on adolescence, a moratorium which is supported by their parents and by society. So, yes, these young men should know better, but guess what, they don’t. It’s high time we, as a society, start teaching our youngest adolescent men and women how to be responsible, respectable adults, and what true moral adult behavior is. Along with this teaching, we should also start expecting far more from our children and our youngest adults then we do. In America, we have a tendency to grant a gross moratorium to adolescence, sometimes to the age of 25. We do a disservice
