| How old is too old? |
[Mar. 8th, 2008|01:16 pm] |
In some of the interviews and various written up pieces, there have been comments made about the age of Justin's character and whether he could/should have been younger than 17.
I know initially I was put off by an older man going after a younger man, but eventually, I got past the age difference.
I look at the age difference in the storyline of the show and think, I can accept 29 - because, that's not 30 yet, right?
I think that 30 is a barrier, threshold, whatever. Would I have been as accepting of Brian if he were 31 or 32? of Justin, if he were 16 or 15?
Interestingly, Hunter - do we know how old Hunter is? - appears to be around 16. Granted he's lived on the streets, but why is Hunter a child and Justin an adult?
Does a year really make a difference?
Where does the age difference become too much of a difference?
How old is too old, how young is too young? |
