TLU: It's Only Really Been 18 for About 30-40 Years...

Mom: She double checked you you know.
Me: I swear to God, I'm getting a fake wedding ring just to stymie your efforts.
Mom: What, it's not like she's underage...
Me: I'm not sure how we got there from that, but ok...
Mom: But, even then, I mean, you've met my friend and her husband? He proposed to her at 13 when he was 30, then married her at 18. I suppose that it's more acceptable for guys to date younger...
Me: ... No... I'm pretty sure proposing to a 13 year old at 30, regardless of gender, is a good way to end up on To Catch a Predator these days...
Mom: I don't think you're a predator!!!

My mom doesn't watch TV news shows. Talking her down from this one took a while...
