You obviously didn't understand my point. Not to mention you completely ignored my first post explaining why its normal to begin with.

You didn't even address my actual argument. Just brought up a strawman. I then explained why your strawman is also bad reasoning. So let me break it down for you.
1. I stated that I think its creepy and why..the power dynamic.
2. Rather than anything explaining why I shouldn't think that power dynamic is creepy in a romantic relationship, you countered with two points.

a. A claim that 10 yr age difference leads to less divorce. You offered no sources to back up that claim, and everything I'm seeing says the opposite, that age differences result in higher divorce rate. So either offer up a source or shut up. Lol Keep in mind that even if divorce rates were lower, it doesn't necessarily mean they're happier and doesn't necessarily apply to those who married in their teens. If you're going to argue stats to try and back up creepo TC then actually provide some halfway fucking decent data.

b. Second argument was that people have always done it, and I only find it creepy cuz I live in the present.

3. I countered your argument by giving an example of why that we shouldn't base our morality (nor do I care to base what I find 'creepy on.) what people have always done before.

And yes, that literally was your point. You talked about marriage was traditionally a business transaction (ie - people used to do it, therefore it should be ok now, essentially is what I'm getting from you) lol
