The moral panic around age gap has been a bit much in recent years. I understand the cultural normalization of older men being romantically linked to young girls/women has made for an extremely fucked up world, but at the same time, it's perfectly normal to find young people attractive.

I'm sure majority of people who do find young people attractive don't go looking for young people to date/sleep with, and/or talk about their attraction to younger people in such a way that it feels creepy.

It's normal to find young people attractive. Young people still have the young person glow/lack of wrinkles, most are at the peak of being fit, many young people are still at their stage in life where they have the energy and time to be involved with their passions, society in general glamorizes youth. For me, cliche as it sounds, young people remind me of my own youth and it does ring up a feeling of nostalgia.

Finding young people attractive is something I do/feel, but I also know I wouldn't want to date them or do anything sexual/romantic with them. The age gap and power imbalance is a reminder that seeing visually pleasing people that then creates a seemingly positive rush of feelings inside doesn't mean I should be acting on said feelings. They're fleeting and have a lot more to do with my own relationship to my own youth than the people I find visually pleasing.

Just...I wish people would stop punishing themselves for their self perceived thought crimes.

You don't dismantle patriarchy and domestic/child abuse by personally not engaging in situations that can contribute to it.
One must call that stuff out when it looks to be happening, and working towards improving systems that allow such abuses and power imbalances to happen in the first place.
Not so much "Oh no, I shouldn't find this young celebrity good looking!"
But maybe more ask yourself if you're OK/comfortable with the age of consent to marriage in your county/state/country - and if you aren't, what can you do to change that?

agree, why does it have to be this big drama if you find an adult attractive. like you said i can recognize that someone is physically attractive without wanting to fuck and or date them. big deal.
