Wondered what people thougth about the 32 year Flack dating/moving in with a 17 year old boyband member, Harry from One Direction.

If it was the other way round, 32 year old make star dating a 17 year old girl, would the press be in uproar, or double standards again?

Iam not sure why men can get away with dating woman years younger and people now think nothing about it .. But woman its look down on .......... is it because we are the ones that give birth? and should not be lovers but mother figers ..and hold up the values in life i am not sure ..... age is a number i know. 17 is very young and i would not be dating a young -man of 17 but be friends only he has lots of living to do first. But men now see it nomal dating years younger woman ... Was a one time just the very rich now its not .

" 17 is very young and i would not be dating a young man of 17 but be friends only he has lots of living to do first. "

That's very much my take on it too

I find it flattering that a younger person would find me attractive and I have been known to even take 1 or 2 of them up on their offers.

Friendship with someone that age I don't think is adviseable if sex has been involved.

I can only speak from personal experience, but every issue I have had with someone getting clingy / wanting more than I can offer, has been with someone 18-23.

I had murders with one guy who wanted me to take his anal virginity. I refused to do it and explained (or at least tried to) that for me it would just be 'a fuck' but for him it would be so more & I didn't think that was fair.

In my eyes, between 2 guys that requires so much more trust and should really be carried out between people who think something of each other.

I know a lot of guys think different, but I guess I'm old fashioned at times.

As for dating, that's a whole different ball game.

I didn't start knowing me til I was in my late 20's / early 30's and maybe wrongly, as a result, if I was looking to date, I wouldn't consider dating anyone below that age.

BUT, if it works for them 2 right now, then let them get on with it, let them have their fun.

If it goes tits up, I am sure neither will be short of offers to mend their broken hearts

The principle was made by Mrs Merton

Does she normally date teens?

Did noticed she was rumoured to be with Prince Harry...

Maybe she is a fame hunter and 1D are in the news and making money I guess...

Poor reflection on her though...

Be interesting to see what happens to her 'career' from now on (downhill is my guess)
