I've been considering the nature of the creepiness factor recently. For those not familiar with Mike Morabito inspired linguistics, the creepiness factor is my standing policy of not dating/pursuing/being interested in younger women.
The thing is, as it stands, the creepiness factor is kind of a hard and fast rule. 21 and up is good. 20 is possible, depending. But really, the issue at stake is maturity. Age is not necessarily a good measure of maturity. So why am I using age as my primary consideration anyways?
This came up in conversation with Dorean (Train Station girls mentor and my fellow church mate). Her take was that maturity was everything and the only age number that mattered was over 18. And, well, it's Dorean, so her opinion carries a LOT of weight.
So, I'm pretty much considering scrapping the creepiness factor. But, I would value input from others before I necessarily change things. Thoughts, anyone?

Take Mark and Nassia for an example. She was a 17 year old high schooler and he was graduating college or something like that. I think he's at least 5 years her seinor. I know pleany of 30 year olds that act like they have no clue in life...
It's only creepy if you're being creepy about it.
I feel like the factor factor really helped the literal quality of this post.
Generally speaking my preference is being with someone over the age of 21.
