They still do. Lord knows most women are completely okay with getting with old dudes if they have the money to fund their lifestyles. Sad that alot of women will sell their souls for “security”.
oh yeah but thats more like sugar daddy stuff and thats consensual usually (20 yos getting with 40+ yo men)
but in the 90s/early 00s, the idea of a 15 or 16 yo hooking up with men in their 20s was not only normalized but often encouraged
"Mama don't think you should date someone so advanced in romance, you should just wait
Papa don't preach, Hov don't bite
Hov been through it, I might mold your life
Plus I'ma show you right
Proper etiquette, how to hold your knife
Keep it competitive with Oprah's ice
Be like Janet, take control of your life"
HUH WHAT? NIGGAS WEIRD
more discouraged now though. Mfs dont understand that in the 90s and early 00s, women in high school were so excited to tell everyone how they hooked up with grown men. Nowadays, nobody is getting excited about that.
Yup i had girls in my class dating 19 year olds with 15. Some of us (mostly guys) already thought it was weird but somehow the girls thought it was something they could show off with

I’m finally putting 2 + 2 together on how weird it was when the girl I liked in my freshman high school debate class was already dating a college sophomore
The industry is weird cause if he dies before he gets canceled he’s in the clear I guess
In the past 2 years we had back to back Elvis movies. One celebrating him, one showing how he groomed Priscilla
Yeah probably.
But what we suppose to do about it now. We'd need Beyonce herself to call him out at this point.
But yeah, they're relationship definitely gives the "Her 25YO Boyfriend Picked Her Up After School" dynamic
In most places in the world its still quit normalized sadly
Europe is CRAZY

Graduated Highschool in the early 2010s.
There was so many girls dating dudes who was like 21-25, and talking about it like it was normal. And we didn't think much of it. Just
"AWWW man! How am I ever to compete with a guy who has a car, full time job, and an apartment >:("
Hell, I remember being rejected by a girl I was crushing on in 11th grade cause she had a bf. Her BF was 26.(and she was a year younger than me). Still with dude today. They married with 3 kids lol
y’all had 25 years to cancel this man
3 kids, 2 world tours, a collab album, and 56 Grammys later they’re fine with their lives
find something else to care about
Nah facts Free Palestine !
Tbh this the first time in human history where grooming has been looked down upon. Women been groomed since the beginning of time.
I do not support grooming at all and find it absolutely disgusting, but I find it pretty ironic that past generations were okay with being so f***ed up.
Still happens in most of the world (and not just "3rd world countries".
Nah but do think if that were the case then Bey/her family would be the one to put that out there if things ever did sour between the two.
Very short answer needed.
Yes.
He literally even did a verse about it on the "Young Girl" song by Pharrell.
Lmao I knew this verse would come back to bite Jay when I first heard it.
I don’t speed through it when I wanna play Angel tho

Ngl the lyrics crazy but I f***ed wit is flow lol
I mean mean they might’ve not been as blatant but if we really dig into these rap songs a-lot the rappers making them thug love joints weren’t all in their 20s lol and they weren’t about women their age either.
Nah
It was just a different time when underage women pursued older men and vice versa.
Yeah niggas gotta find a middle ground between women naturally wanting mfs with resources and maturity and the extreme end of the spectrum where niggas going after mfs fresh out of high school at 21-25+
