While I definitely appreciate the appearance of Chris Colfer (Kurt on Glee) in this morning's little boyfriend fantasy, and I definitely wouldn't mind having him for a few weeks just to listen to him scream like a little girl when I do what I like with him, he's half your fucking age. We've talked about this. They're very tasty eye candy, and they're very tasty for that one incredibly short stint of amazingly energizing sex, but they're half your fucking age. They have little to nothing to offer in that sort of a generation gap. It's nothing personal, at all, I'm sure he's a great guy and whatnot, and probably a very wonderfully sensual lover. But he's half your fucking age. Let it go. Focus on those Sleestak actors again. Or Alex Kovas, given his proclivity for calling himself a humanimal and dressing appropriately. He's clearly older, and quite *ahem* flexible.

I have never had a problem with age gaps in dating (myself or others), apart from whatever normal drama would happen in a relationship anyway.

Well, over the years I have found that a substantial age difference (~>8yrs or so) very often leads to a substantial experiential and communicative gap. Trying to date someone that can't legally drink right now would just be stupid, particularly given what I want. It's .... difficult to believe that someone that young truly understands what being full time property would entail. As well as how to communicate effectively the issues they're going through simply because their experiential well is so shallow. So even making analogies for their concerns or issues are sometimes difficult for them.

Well since my endstate does not include such issues of 'property' then perhaps we face different problem sets.

Staying aware of various historical, cultural and zeitgeist trends, I have found, renders cross-generational communication much easier (up or down).

It can, indeed. And I realize that it sounds like I'm willing to make little to no effort to communicate with the slave which is not true. I've just found through very unfortunate experience that trying to fully enslave someone that has only read about things, and has some VERY odd ideas about what constitutes slavery can very often lead to some very ugly situations. I'm old enough now that I don't necessarily want to put myself in that situation when there's no overpowering need.
