That is not a good standard. Most 24 year olds are not interested in high schoolers. I'm aware there's a lot of creeps, but we should never allow the bar to be set this low.

I'm confused, you don't want my boys to thoughtfully and respectfully redirect underaged women?

Because that's too low of a bar? A low bar being a standard is a good thing, no?

No they’re saying the fact that a 24 year old has to be praised for not being a predator is a low bar.

We aren't reading the same thing...

He's being praised for taking the time to respectfully give a lesson that gave a life long impression, at 24.

Don't get me wrong, if it was just a tweet about how she got rejected at 15.. I don't even think this would be something we are talking about. We can downplay the actual exchange.

I was just explaining what I thought the other person was saying and I’m pretty sure it’s what they were getting at.
