Would all the hate be here of Mrs. Kick-Ass was a man...


married to a much younger woman? I don't think so.

I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine and he shall be my Squishy.

Are you kidding me? When a 40 something male director with two kids would leave his wife of 11 years to be with a hot looking 18/19 yo girl he met at the film set, all hell would break loose. He would be roundly chastised in the social media as a cheater and pervert who'd prey on young girls. What kind of world are you living in?

She was already divorced when started making out with Aaron.
She and Jay got divorced in 2008.

You're right about the divorce, but still, a 40 something male director starting an affair with the 18/19yo star of his film would be criticized as typical creepy male midlife crisis behaviour.

no I mean Demi Moore didn't get this much hate when she married Ashton Kutcher, I hate to say this but it's Sam's looks

reply

Demi Moore did get a lot of criticism and the age gap was only about half of what it is here.

reply

well Demi didn't get a lot of posts about her being ugly it wasn't as bad as the posts here

The exact same age difference existed between Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, to the year. And Bogie was married when they got together. To this day they are probably the most beloved couple in the history of cinema.

Uh,no, that would be considered typical middle-aged male behavior, and the guy would secretly be congratulated for still being able to get a hot young chick, just like men always have. Men have always been allowed to get away with that because it was men who set the rules about all of that. They just can't stand the fact that women are getting with younger dudes now and showing absolutely no shame whatsoever about it, just like men flaunt their young hot chick girlfriends around,lol.
