Sis, You Can’t Preach Age-Gap Morality After You Cashed In Yours

You might get mad, but you’ll keep reading anyway. Don’t worry, it’s not personal. It’s just that the truth hurts more than contour without setting spray.

Let’s talk about the delusion Olympics, specifically the makeup and age-gap dating event.

Every week, someone on the internet discovers the shocking revelation that men like younger women and women like men with money. Groundbreaking stuff. Like, Nobel-level discovery right there.

First off, let’s clear the powdery air. Makeup isn’t about “looking younger.” Please. Some of y’all have been blending your faces since 13, not to look 10, but because puberty decided to play Connect-the-Dots on your cheeks. Makeup started as a shield, not sorcery. But somewhere along the way, the narrative turned into: “Women wear makeup to attract men.”

Girl, no. She’s wearing that highlighter because she wants to glow like divine revenge, not to impress Chad from HR.

Now here’s where it gets juicy.

Young women in their 20s love older men. They’ll say, “He’s mature, stable, and knows what he wants.” Translation: He’s got Wi-Fi, a working car, and doesn’t text “wyd?” twelve times a day.

Then fast-forward a couple decades and those same women hit 40, suddenly turning into UN peacekeepers for “age-appropriate dating.” Now it’s, “Men should date women their age!” Oh, so now the rulebook matters? When you were sipping champagne in his Range Rover, it was “preference.” Now that you’re the one getting ghosted for a 25-year-old, it’s “misogyny.”

Babes, you can’t play the game, win the trophy, and then burn the stadium down because you retired.

Meanwhile, the men aren’t innocent either. The 45-year-old with a “spiritual awakening” and a gym membership didn’t suddenly discover inner peace. He just discovered collagen and 23-year-olds who still say “slay.” He’s not mentoring her, he’s reliving the years when his hairline still believed in him.

Ask an older man why he dates younger women and the excuses sound like TED Talks for emotionally unavailable people. “Women my age are bitter.” Translation: “They know my nonsense and won’t clap for it.” “Younger women appreciate me.” Translation: “They haven’t met my ex-wife yet.”

And that old quote, “Men fall for what they see, women fall for what they hear”? Still true. That’s why women wear makeup, and men rehearse lies like they’re auditioning for Fast & Furious 15: Emotional Damage.

Look, attraction isn’t evil. Biology and social media are running the show. Men chase beauty, women chase security, everyone pretends to chase love. It’s the same loop, just with better filters and worse morals.

So before you post that “men should date women their age” rant, remember: you weren’t dating broke boys your age either, sis. You just aged into your own double standard.

And to the guys, stop acting like dating younger women makes you “alpha.” It just makes you older with data issues.

Bottom line? Everyone’s hustling for something: beauty, money, relevance, or validation.

The dating pool isn’t toxic, it’s just a mirror.

Now go touch up that foundation of hypocrisy. It’s starting to crack. 💋

If this offended you, congratulations… it probably hit where the concealer couldn’t reach.
