Yeah, OP - haven't you heard? Anyone over the age of 25 is "OMG! EW! SO OLD AND DECREPIT!" (Or at least it is in the fandom circles I run in... Stupid little girls. Side note: I'm a 24 year old woman who prefers to date older men.)

Wow, aren't you special.

Also, isn't the whole Superwholock thing or whatever popular with young girls? All the male actors there range from 30-40.

DA.

Actually, the fandom I was in for years had as its main pairing two 35 to 40 characters.

The one I am in right now has as its 3rd most popular (slash) pairing two 50+ characters (the oldest between 60 and 70), so really, I'd say go for it... Considering how shallow most of us are, this will not be a very popular pairing, but it may be more due to the lack of obvious physical attractiveness of the characters in question than their age and/or gender status. Mind you, you can circumvent this problem quite neatly by going for a friendship/platonic or asexual relationship thing instead?

Note: I think your problem may be a much more common one - your favorite pairing is not the fandom's favorite/it's a rare pairing/it doesn't exist at all... The problem is not necessarily a matter of age as the general online fandom population is growing older (50+ fan right here and I know of several fans who are even older by an order of magnitude).

PS: no offense, but at 24, you are likely to strike at least half of the fans reading this as a baby. Thus the response from the anon above, I suspect. It's not about chronological age as much as it is about maturity... :(
