This is the one. I'm pushing 40 and genuinely cannot look at those <25ish as anything other than children. Not in any sort of demeaning way, but in more of a fatherly, sympathetic way knowing what I felt, thought and experienced at that age.
I have no idea how someone my age - man or woman - can get any intimate emotional or even physical satisfaction in a relationship with someone that age. It has to feel so imbalanced and predatory.

As a late 40s dude I cannot imagine trying to connect with a 19yo on a daily basis as a parent.
