If we go back in US history we can find a time when big age differences in a relationship were much more socially acceptable.
Thomas Jefferson, third President of the US, impregnated a 15 year old girl when he was in his forties.
James Madison, fourth President of the US, dated a 15 year old girl when he was in his thirties.
John Jay, the first Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court, married a 16 year old girl when he was in his thirties.
I suspect that largely because of hysteria about pedophiles people nowadays are much more likely to condemn such relationships even when both partners are adults as defined by modern day law as is the case in this thread. |

This statement caused me to do some investigation and if you read
the very in depth analysis given at this URL:

You will see that it is not proven that Jefferson fathered this girl and
there are some real good arguments that he did not.

| Good for the old guy. The woman is 23. She old enough to be a consenting adult and she seems to love him. Good enough for me. |

Hahaha....I have read most of the posts and no one has yet pointed out what could be highly possible, and probable.
Of course she is happy! He will die soon and then she will still be young, pretty, and....richer than she was before.

I think this is brilliant. For the record I am a young female and by all accounts attractive. If I were in a position that many SE Asian females find themselves - likely poor (ish) and my options for finding a wealthy local man were very slim I would do the same thing as so many of them do. I would look for a foreign man. |
Dude. Claiming to be a woman (young and attractive no less) when you think it will help your argument is stupid. Everyone here knows that is you in the OP, or close enough. (I know this is an old post but DAMN.) |
