Last week...
Added 2025-05-05 23:48:38 +0000 UTCWe read a script from season 1 of Fatal Girl at cold read on Sunday. It was so much fun - especially the comments from some of the more recently added readers, who i believe are among a much more recent generation than I am.
One thing that stood out, for this old biddy, was their concern at a relationship between a man of 23 and a woman of 18 or 19. They thought the age gap was creepy.
When did this happen and no one told me?
For much of the 20th century, a similar gap, at a similar age, would have been considered 100% normal (with the mainstream, anyway). A gap of 10 years (for the young), or 20, and you're maybe looking at something less healthy, but 4-5 years? Eek!
Not to mention the oodles of books with 500+ year old vampires stalking high school girls. Uch. I'm on the creepy train for that one.
