"“I love women,” is not a get out of jail free card. Thicke pulled the same bullshit when he was accused of degrading women in “Blurred Lines”: “When we made the song, we had nothing but the most respect for women,” he said. How nice of you to say so, Mr. Thicke. Alas, your work shows the opposite to be true. I am fairly certain many of the men who buy sex and consume porn also think they do it because they really, really, love women. NOPE. You love women like I love wine — as something I consume selfishly for my personal benefit and as a product."

Imagine it getting all hot and heavy between Aoba and Ren in the bedroom. Ren straddling Aoba’s hips as they make out and he starts to kiss along his jawline, to his neck, to his collarbones. Aoba lets out a breathy moan and whimpers “R-Ren, talk dirty do me…”.
but you are 19 years old and you are dating someone who is 5 years younger than the age of consent in america. If you don’t think you’re going to at least get weird looks when you tell people this, I have some news for you.
but in time she’ll be 23 when he’s 29, number doesn’t really matter because of ageing and all, maybe just the timing?
the problem isn’t the age gap, I mean shit there was about a 5 year age gap between my step father and mother. It’s not the most extreme example but whatever.
The problem is that it’s a 19 year old legal adult dating a middle school aged child.
The probably with age difference in adolescent relationships is the rate of development. I agree that past the age of 24, a 5 head age difference isn’t a huge deal. But between 12 and 24 is when people are going through the hugest development. A 13 year old and a 19 year olds brain chemistry doesn’t even work the same. I’m not saying they couldn’t get along, but the hormone difference there is extremely significant. I mean, you wouldn’t set a 2 year old up on a playmate with a 7 year old. 5 years is almost half of a 13 year olds life. The higher the age difference is compared to the age of the younger party is important.
My dad graduated from school when my mum was -born-
that’s real fuckin neato but the age difference isn’t the problem, the problem is that a legal fucking adult is dating somebody who should be in middle school like what is so difficult to grasp about this concept.
Ugh, why is everyone judging this relationship? You know nothing about these people except their age gap!
I’d like to point out that you reblogged this and mentioned the age gap being the problem when, on the response I posted literally right above yours, I say that the age gap is not the problem. The problem is IT’S AN ADULT DATING SOMEONE WELL UNDER THE AGE OF CONSENT AND DEFINITELY NOT DEVELOPED ENOUGH TO BE HAVING A SERIOUS RELATIONSHIP, ESPECIALLY NOT ONE WITH A LEGAL FUCKING ADULT.
Read. Please read. Go back to school. Learn how to read. Reading comprehension will save your life.
13 you’re a fucking child when you’re 13 you’re JUST coming into teenage years 13 is in NO WAY developed MENTALLY or PHYSICALLY as a //19// year old. this relationship is SICK because whether you people like it or not an ADULT is taking advantage of a CHILD. the maturity of development between 13 and 19 is HUGE. just like others have said. If they had both been of legal age then the gap dosent matter theres a fucking LEGAL age of consent FOR A REASON these relationships disgust me to no fucking end im ///17/// and i can VERY VERY CLEARLY see how much more developed people even MY AGE are as compared to a 13 year old
if i were that child’s mom id call the fucking police on them so fucking fast because no fucking adult who had their fucking head in check would fucking prey on a kid like that thats what that anon is, a fucking predator i bet if the mother knew she’d be on your ass for statutory rape
THIRTEEN IS STILL A CHILD NINETEEN IS AN ADULT IT IS DISGUSTINGLY WRONG FOR AN /ADULT/ TO PREY ON A /CHILD/ IF THE PARTNER WAS AN ADULT THAT WOULD BE OKAY BECAUSE YOU KNOW THEYD BE A FUCKING ///ADULT//// IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ANOTHER ////ADULT////
My parents are 7 years apart.
and you’re a moron
I’m looking at these comments about “shaming the ‘relationship’” and im just
My parents are 7 years apart. You want to know what the difference is?
When the met and started dating my Father was 31 and my mother was 24.
Both of them fully developed consenting adults.
There’s a difference and if you think a 19 year old dating a 13 year old is okay then you are either stupid or just as dangerous as the person taking advantage of the child.
I honestly can’t believe half of these peoples comments on this. Why is this so hard to understand??? Holy shit
Yeah, because Gamzee has never expressed self-loathing post-killing.
He’s never shed a tear
or two
over a promise he ended up keeping.
And it’s not like
he puts a large emphasis
on friendship
or anything
like that.
And besides, he’s still in the same state of mind when he killed Equius and Nepeta.
And he was in his right mind when he killed them.
Look at all these sane words he’s saying.
It’s not like his state of mind was changed
by a moment that was an important plot point.
Nor was it explicitly stated anywhere
that his madness had been cured.
Yes, A+ post.
Everyone who thinks Gamzee has no remorse and is just some ruthless uncaring killer by choice should be forced to go back and read homestuck over again in its entirety
Swear to god, some guys are terrified that girls are faking common interests to impress them and act really hostile towards anyone they even SUSPECT of doing such a thing
but then they turn around and fake a whole friendship in the hopes of getting sex out of girls, and get mad at them when it doesn’t work
