As a middle age guy who sure as hell would not want to date anyone that young all I can say is yikes.

Tho, you did say "single" men, and I'm not single, so maybe there's a selection bias in that the kind of men who want to pursue much younger women, are more likely to remain single themselves for extended periods of time?

  • Marilyn Monroe isnt a role model she's an icon. Young women like her because she's sexy, glamorous, and had a relatively large dress size by celeb women standards.

  • That wasnt a biopic and you probably have a very distorted idea of who she was and what she's known for irl.

Like I just said, I don't think pre emptive threats are the way to go either

While I appreciate your comment I think it would be more productively directed at the woman upthread who is talking about actually PHYSICALLY threatening her obstetrician before she gives birth.

I'm an old Australian man living in Australia so Im not part of this situation. I was just trying to point out to her that malpractice is generally illegal since it keeps happening to redditors.

Come to think of it not sure what country she's from either.

Speaking from the reads American women's experiences on reddit and facebook perspective:

I don't think pre emptive threats are the way to go either but it's definitely still a thing in places over there.

If I was a woman giving birth I would want to specifically mention it to the obstetrician to feel them out and make my stance on it super clear. Why leave something like that up to chance.

It has nothing to do with vaginas when women smell different when they're on their period.

It's subtle differences in their breath/taste of their mouth and their skin. It's not always noticeable, and it's usually something only an intimate partner would ever pick up on.

I think u/amboy_connector is right, I've always assumed it had two meanings and Lecter deliberately left it ambiguous.
