Why does age matter..........

Tonight I saw a wonderful couple...he was in his late 30's and she was considerably older. A Summer / Autumn relationship most definitely. They were so cute together. You could tell that they had only been dating for a short time and that they really enjoyed one another. You would think that the pleasure that they obviously found in one another would be all that mattered, but unfortunately like many other women in the world she was conditioned into thinking that he was to young for her. Why is it ok for a 45 year old man to date a woman 20 years his junior, but it's not ok for a woman to do the same. Don't get me wrong....if you are a minor....age does matter! If you are two consenting adults what's the big deal?!!!! I just don't get it! It shouldn't be their age, but who they are inside that matters. You only live once!!! So live!!!!
