That relative age gap is a bit concerning. I have a colleague who met her husband when she was 17 and he was 38, and they are a great couple now. She’s in her mid thirties now. It’s all situational, and parents need to be involved and society also needs to give the youth a sound understanding of what’s acceptable and how not to be placed in a position of dependence within a sexual relationship with an older partner.
It’s not a black and white topic for me, as you might have gathered. Not many things are, in life.
Would you find it okay if a 15 year old had sex with a 25 year old?
