To me, it emphasizes the fact that she’s a schoolkid, and it’s like he’s playing “got your nose”. If they were both adults, it would be a cute, silly moment, but…
Yes. How difficult is that to understand for you? The age of consent isn’t some magical day where a person suddenly matures and is capable of making all of the right decisions.
He was 38, fabulously wealthy, and incredibly famous. She was a 17-year old schoolgirl. THAT’S. FUCKING. GROSS!
The fact that her family were just like “a rich, aging celebrity?!? Of course you can predate on and fuck my 17 year old daughter”, that says awful things about her parents.
A 38 year old dating a high schooler? Yeah, I think that’s gross. I don’t care who approved of it. By the same token. nobody needs to agree with me, either.
That is the problem though, don’t ever say here (or anywhere else for that matter) that a young adult woman can chose her own path. If she decides to date an older guy, that’s bad and you’re bad for not shaming them. You adult male dating an older woman is weird, but fine.
I guess it’s similar behavior to guy hitting his wife is bad, but wife hitting guy is funny, only that in this case it’s of nobodies forking business. If the girl is an adult then she’s free to make her own decisions, her own mistakes, and people here can stop telling her that she must be sexually traumatized to do this or something like that.
That pic of him pinching her nose is especially revolting.
Dare I ask why

Underage of what? Consent age in NY is 17
Technically correct. I fixed the wording.
So they were both of the age of consent, and even her family approved of their relationship, but somehow it’s still revolting?

as long as you’re not trying to convince others to feel a specific way about it, kudos for being tolerant of people having different opinions.
Not that my opinion is worth anything either :)
