That was awful. They were joking about him making out with a 14 year old Mila.  :cry: [/quote]

He was 19 to her 14. I am a little older than they are and can say that in my world (suburban NY) no one would have batted an eye toward a couple of those respective ages back then. Plenty of 14 yr old girls had french kissed. I briefly dated a 19 yr old as a 14/15 yr old, and in college dated a senior as a freshman. Even in hindsight with a 50 yr old’s perspective, I would never say I was taken advantage of.

My kids feel like you do - they are horrified if a senior in their HS dates a sophomore. That was probably the most common couple age gap in my HS. [/quote]

Bullshit. I'm a Gen X'er and this was creepy as all hell in the early 90s. 14 is an 8th or 9th grader, 19 could be a college sophomore. On what planet is a college sophomore trying to bone an 8th grader normal? It's predatory as hell. I think you must be some PR firm to post some crap like this.[/quote]

That age spread was not uncommon during high school in the 80s.  By the mid 90s it became icky.

I graduated in 1989 and another in 1985.  Lots of freshmen girls dated seniors.  I had several high school friends dating college guys, and knew a few dating men in their early 20s (like 16/17/18 dating 21/22/23/24 year old men, although they did have to sneak to get that past parents.)  Several of them married and are still married.

My sisters graduated 1992 & 1995.  By then, the guys doing this were considered losers and predators.[/quote]

Bullshit. And this was the early 2000s, not 40 or 50 years ago. He’s clearly a predator. Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future. Diddy and Masterson were his BEST FRIENDS.[/quote]

How young are you?

A 3 to 6 year age spread was not uncommon at all during high school in the 80s.

DP. High school girls dating college guys is different than a college man dating a girl in middle school. People would've been disturbed by that scenario in the 70s, 80s, 90s, and beyond. And recalling tales from your adolescence in SE Kentucky doesn't change that.[/quote]

If you read what post you were responding to, you would see the thread was discussing [b]high school[/b] not middle school [/quote]

You're right. The discussion was originally about a middle school girl with a 19 yo man, a 6-year age gap. Then someone posted the non sequitur--
"That age spread was not uncommon during high school in the 80s." Followed by another story of HSers dating.

Let's get back to the creepy predatory Ashton Kutcher/Danny Masterson/Mila Kunis mess.[/quote]
