When ever a relationship crosses the generational line it has to be detramental to the younger of the pair. Developmentally, lifes experiences dictate who will be the driving force in maintaining a relationship such as this, and can only result in the subjugation of the younger participant.
Such activity may indeed be "legal" in various places on our little globe but nonetheless they are harmful to both parties involved. In areas where these liasons are illegal, they are because the social mores and custom of the local sociaty feel the need and responsibility to protect it's youth.
I well know the propensity to admire youth but to admire is one thing, to entice a youngster into a relationship is another.
I also know all the platitudes... i.e. What if it is the younger of the two that vies for the relationship..... To that I have to say that if it indeed does happen then the adult involved is a better manipulator than most.
Relationships by definition must be mutually beneficial, and to be a positive influence to all involved, Physically, emotionally, mentally, safely. If the relationship does not meet all these criteria then it is a sham.
Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...
