But personally I see older people bash down younger people a heck of a lot more than I see the other way around, and when I do see it, it's almost always in REACTION to a bash.
I was going to say exactly the same thing. Although I try and be a proponent for younger kinksters when the age-old (har har har) arguement appears on the forums, occasionally some 40-year-old telling me that I can't be what I am just because I'm half her age gets on my nerves to the point where I do want to just put my fingers in my ears and sing-song "nyah, nyah, you're so old. I'm so young, sucks to be you!" I can't recall ever having done that, however. Although the arguement is usually made by someone without so much of the wiser, it can't be denied that someone twice my age has done quadruple the cool things I've done in my life. And though it sucks to be reminded of it, I know I personally, and probably most other young people, have a lot to learn.
I think part of the problem that encourages us youngsters to get uppity is all the older gentlemen trolls on the other side of the site heaping attention on us because we're young. Personally, I find that more offensive than flattering...if a man is only attracted to me for a number, whether that number is 22, 5'2", or 38F, he's probably not the guy I'm looking for.
