That Pocahontas married John Smith (or was his lover) is one of the great myths of popular culture. She actually married John Rolfe. And she did so something like seven years after the incident where she saved John Smith's life. There are plenty of examples of famous dudes taking on young wives, but John Smith isn't one of them.

Quote:

Historical records do not suggest that Smith and Pocahontas were lovers, or even that she was a suitable age for such a relationship. The romance is featured only (but repeatedly) in fictional versions of their relationship (such as the 1995 animated film by Walt Disney and the 2005 film, The New World). The first romance was written about them in the early 19th century, suggesting the story's mythic appeal. Accounts of such a romance have been repeated in films made in the United States as late as 2009.

Quote:

[Pocahontas's] feelings about Rolfe are unknown. She married him on April 5, 1614 at a church in Jamestown. Richard Buck presided their wedding. They lived for two years on Rolfe's plantation, Varina Farms, which was located across the James River from the new community of Henricus. Their son, Thomas was born on January 30, 1615.

Ha ha. Ha ha.

The more the hate, the better I feel.

I could realistically see my 55-60 year old self potentially seriously dating a woman in her mid twenties or early thirties. Based on this, I'd call 30 to 35 years a realistic limit for me with regard to a serious relationship. I suppose that a more extreme gap is feasible outside of the west but I haven't really thought about it. My wildest dreams/imaginations about my future serious relationships have generally been in the 30-35 year limit.

Figured it was SEA.

I'd go older if it was Monica Bellucci. But even beautiful women who age gracefully have the specter of old age looming over them. I can usually guess how they will probably look in a few years, at a glance.

Very nice choice by Bruce. Good taste.

Perfect blow job hair on this classy bitch.

I dig this girl too.

She's not the flashy, over-the-top kind of hot you'd expect see with a movie star but still very pretty and with some modest sex appeal going for her. And there's a fire lurking in those eyes - I bet she's a blast in bed.

A wise, pragmatic choice for a man of his stature.

If you have the ability to date a 20 year old when you're 60 but you don't take it because of what our pussified society thinks, then you don't deserve the ability anyway.

53 years age gap,not the SEA. Beat that motherfuckas

Tolerate may have been a poor choice in word. Although I must say college age girls can be stupid and annoying as fuck. At least in America. I'd bang the fuck out of just about any of these girls in the video below. But actually introduce them to friends my age(late 30s)? Probably not.

Dear lord, imagine having to marry one of those girls? Fuck me they were annoying.

I answered 20 years. Although, if I was 60, I might answer differently.

[Handsome Creepy Eel]

As far as maturity goes, I personally know plenty of 20-year olds who are both smart, sexy, well-read, cultured and take great care of themselves. The problem is, they have massive dominance thresholds and require huge amounts of game (sometimes even above what I can provide after years of practice and success), which almost ensures that they will end up riding the carousel and stuck in super-alpha harems until they get old and bitter. What good is a "great" girl like that if she gives her best years to someone who is going to cheat on her all the time and possibly even beat her?

Again, if I were 60 and had the ability to attract 20-year olds, their qualities would not be an obstacle. It's not their qualities that are the problem in the first place! I suppose I should be grateful for that at least, because obesity rates are very low here compared to the anglosphere. But the much less developed country means that my potential for migrating to SA or SEA is a lot lower than for guys in the anglosphere, so everything ends up being only balanced

As far the whole statutory thing goes.. isn't it all about the two people being able to make decisions mature decisions?

If this is the case, wouldn't we be judging the two people involved on the basis of the level of their psychological maturity or intelligence?

Let's say that someone is past the the age of consent, but is not emotionally mature (or whatever it is that makes the age thing relevant), then wouldn't that count as some kind of rape?

The is an extreme example, but if someone a had sex with Rainman, wouldn't that be like molesting a child?

There seems to be a great generalizing about all this in the laws.

There are definitely people who are older than 16-17 who are complete idiots, but who get the right to vote, fight in wars, drive and do all this other stuff.

Maybe we need a different way of defining maturity in society.

[eradicator]

If a chick is 50 years younger, she doesn't have daddy issues, more like grand daddy issues. But hey, whatever, if they are both getting what they want, it's all good.

You mean how much younger would I tolerate for myself? 21 year olds are flakey as fuck. I think the minimum age right now is 23 for me, and will be the same thing in 10 years or 20 years. If I am 57 and able to pull 23 years olds, good lord, i'd do it.

a 50 year age difference is just silly, because at some point your sex drive will seriously decline. Do guys in their 80s and 90s even get hard?

[WestIndianArchie]

For an LTR? 25.

I'm 35, that means 35/2+7 = 24.5? I actually look maybe 25 myself and had no problem dating 21 year olds just recently.

The formula is flawed, maybe works well for older ages.

Also: 24/2+7 = 19 - so 24 yo shouldn't hit on 18 yo pussy? What? And who will?

My table of min age recommendations:

Man's age | Woman's min age
18 - 30 | 18
30 - 40 | 21
40 - 50 | 25
50 - 60 | 30
60+ | 35

[SVK]

Though, I have to admit that for LTR the "half plus 7" has some merit...

While plotting the age boundaries is helpful from a graphical standpoint, I would argue that there is a more succint schematic to represent the general gap tolerance here at RVF:

[Veloce]

I wouldn't want to date a 40 year old at my current age, why the fuck would I do it when I'm old and even less tolerant of bullshit?

I see myself growing old with some SEA woman that treats me well, punctuated by regular flings with 20-30 year old women.

[YoungDominican]

Didn't read the entire thread so didn't see the chart posted, shit I can follow that rule until I hit an age where 18 is the youngest, then that'll have to stop.
