Love is worth, everything we want it to be.

Oh my gosh, she's 22 and dating a 40 year old.

He's 18 and dating a 50 year old.

Like the institute of blended families, polygamy, and gay marriage: these moments are becoming more common.

Yet, they are still vastly socially unacceptable, why is this?

Well, in situations such as gay marriage, up until a few years ago and still in many states: the law stopped this from happening.

Polygamy is facing a similar factor. Both stem from (outrageous or not) religious beliefs. So where does age play into that?

It doesn't.
It gets grouped and stereotyped.

If the male is older, we see this as a predatory situation. Or that the female involved has Daddy issues.

Nobody sees the girl who's attached to a different generation because she feels as if hers is broken. Maybe she doesn't fit into the generation she was born into, and can see the sophistication behind the older male that others her age don't. As for him, he's desperate to hold onto his youth.

Terrible isn't it?
No, it's not your business.

Love is love. Before we are the age we currently are, we all have individual personalities and ideas on life.

It's a beautiful thing. Individuality.

It's like walking into a rose garden and cutting the stems that appeal to you instead of cutting stems of all the same shapes and sizes.

Some people will want round, full sophisticated roses and some will want young, fresh vibrant buds.

As long as both parties completely consent, who are we to judge anyways?

Because I am sick of people asking....

What are you going to school for?
People moan and groan bout my decision to go (I know, everyone elses parental units and siblings encourage college, but my background is very different in that area).
They live within the firm belief that I am simply going to school to skip out on a 40 hour a week job.
Little do they realize, that I have to eventually leave school and try to plan ahead further than that.

Anyways. To start..im very facinated in journalism. In fact, so much I  would love at this point to land a job writing for a living, Ive always had a connection with people and believe that media culture and proper advertising is a key to changing the world in a positive way.

With that said, a job in writing would be perfect. Its not the most practical choice seeing as its not incredibly easy to just land a random job as a writer, but ive many other media related options as well.

Social media manager would be another example of a great job to land, also known as a creative manager. On salaries.com creative managers can make about 75 grand a year.

With that said, ive also heavily considered advertising as an solid career, and would love to land a job with a company doing something along that line. Anything to stretch my  creative flow.

I am looking into getting into WSUV's CMDC (Creative Media and Digital Culture) program. Its a technological point of view on many of those things ive already discussed.


Here is an example of the program offered at wsuv.
