Like Wahine, I guess I just have to chime in. When I was married (to a man 20 years older than me), we both endured all kinds of rude comments & assumptions about why we were together. Some of the comments were made innocently, but after the 100th time, still bugged us a little...I mean, what gives? Others were downright snide and hurtful.

I know this thread is discussing all kinds of things, from opinions on everything from celebrity-worship to PDAs, not just the age difference. But, as one who put up with comments from well-meaning family to total strangers, it just gets old.
