Hey, I agree with fayerody-- "society is screwed up."
I don't believe in double standards! If a man of 30 or 40 can have a 20 something wife then I think the reverse should also be accepted. Where did this nonsense of women having to be younger than their mates come from anyway??? (I believe it's a dominant-submissive idea and also that men being older will die first-- thus sparing them from ever living alone or dealing with a spouse's death) I think it's dumb!-- but then, I've always been one that questions most "norms" (feeling vocal at the moment- )

BTW-- I am a tiny bit older than my hubby--only by 8 months-- so I guess maybe we're considered the same age.
