As most of you have probably seen, I asked a question identical to this one except switching the genders. On this question we have about 60% yes and 40% no, whereas on that other one it's 80% yes and 20% no. Yes it is true that this one has a larger sample size, but another thing I should point out is that as I've watched this topic recently, I've realized that the recent votes have been no. Another difference I should point out is that the people expressing their opposition when the man is older are much more outraged, as you can see, they describe it as "disturbing" and "wrong" whereas when the woman is older, it will be more along the lines of "maybe it's not the best idea". There is quite obviously a double standard. I feel like for many people the mere thought of an older man having access to a much younger woman fills them with anger, they see it as exploitation and think it ought to be illegal. When it's an older woman and a much younger man, they will say they think it's wrong just to be fair but it really doesn't bother them the slightest bit. People need to check their sexism and then come back to this topic.
