Before delving in to the crux of this thread, I'll provide some quick background.
A Canadian senator's wife was detained recently for causing a disturbance and uttering threats on a flight. She has since been cleared of the charges and yet her and her husband are still making Canadian news. Why? Because she is 23 and he is 69 [http://www.thestarphoenix.com/7141596.bin]. Here's a link [http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/story/2012/08/28/sk-maygan-sensenberger-in-court-1208.html] if you are interested in reading more about it.
Far be it from me to judge the realities of their marriage, I'm more curious as to how many people would pursue a relationship with someone that much older than themselves.
So my fellow Escapists, how much older is too old for you when looking for a significant other? Do you even care about the age difference? For those of you already in committed relationships, pretend you are single for the sake of this discussion.
EDIT: The captcha ate the 7th poll option, it should say "I don't care about the age difference, only our compatibility".
