Is there a Generation Gap?

Is there a Generation Gap?


I have stated on here a few times I am sure, if not I will state it again. I don't date ladies too far away from my age bracket due to the differences in life experiences, tastes, and all that. The generation gaps, if you will. I do like some of the music, bands my like, but they do listen to some that I'm like...um no. I will take my youngest who lives with me, to see some movies that I would never dream of taking a date to. But she's my . I won't even go into all the other parameters, but lets just leave it at, there really isn't any aspects of life, where there isn't a generation gap.

But wait!!! I think I found one!!

I have a very good, open and honest relationship with all my , but me and my youngest are really tight. She's 16, quick to remind me almost 17, and has been living with me for the last two years. We talk about everything. While we don't get into details, she knows I'm on a "less than vanilla" dating site.

Last night, we were talking about dating, online dating and some of the benefits. But mostly about the downsides, the crap that women put up with and some of the heartaches that can and do arise. While the conversation started on the later, this talk created a revelation to me, when it turned more towards the crazy crap that goes on with guys on the internet.

Yes, gentlemen, and I use that term loosely, you have shown me that there is one area that is not age specific. Completely void of any generational gap. Now again, it's not all men. But after doing some searches on here, I'm coming up with a number around 82%. So certainly a majority.

For the record, she doesn't date much. Doesn't go out with anyone, unless I've met them. And I don't mean, introduced to me as he's picking her up. Over protective, maybe, but I can live with that. Some bells can't be unrung. She isn't on any dating sites, but she's a so she's on Instagram, the FB messenger.. the comments here are in reference to the similarities there and on FriendFinder-x.

We started with just the rude and crude comments guys post. I'm telling her about some of the stupid things guys say on here to try and attract women. She starts describing some of the things her and her friends put up with. Yep, pretty much the same, "hey wanna fuck", "do you suck dick". I'm both amazed and being the dad type, a little pissed off. Later I'll describe why it wasn't as bad once I heard the whole story. Anyways, I think my favorite on the "comments " portion of our discussion, is what I call the cave man vocabulary. When they want to know if the girls will send nude pics..they can't piece together even a simple sentence like, "hey, will you share any nude pics?"

No, it's a Neanderthal, "Nudes?" One stinking word is all they can come up with. No use wasting any effort..I mean what if she says no. Don't want to have wasted all that time with a long sentence first. Much less get to know her a little bit with some conversation. Amazing!

The it was dick pics. Oh yeah, this isn't just something for the older folk. The younger generation of men seem to think the way to pick up women is to fly that dick like a flag, apparently just like some of the older guys on here. No generation gap there fellas. Good job. Doesn't matter if it's big or small, it's in her words, "like they think they have to prove that , yeah I'm a guy and I have a dick, promise".

So being the dad, I had to ask. So little one, what do you say to them when they send you those messages, or wave the penile banner at you. Her response, "Oh hell, you never respond to them. If you do, even if it's to say not interested, they blow up and spam you with crazy hateful messages." Priceless! Again, no age differences here. Seems like the inability to take a "not interested, thanks", knows no age boundaries either.

I said earlier, why I wasn't as mad at the idiots prospecting for my daughters attention. Here's a 16 year old that already has these idiot guys figured out and how to deal with them. LOL. Apparently , there is no generation gap when it comes to women being smart enough to know how to deal with the 82% that are just<b> bone </font></b>heads.

So I have been proven wrong. There is at least one area where there is no generational gap. Don't think I'm going to change my dating preferences over it, but it was enlightening.

I did want to thank the 82% of guys. You've set the bar for successful communication with women so low, my daughters 3 month old Beagle can step over it without jumping. Just makes it that much easier for the rest of us guys.

She also showed me this video of a commedian she saw on a fb post. You can find it by doing the goo search , under

You'd swear it was written about the interactions on here. LOL

Sounds like you have raised an awesome daughter there, very smart too. Not many dads I know that are close to their teenage daughters like you are, so that's so very commendable.

Now for the dick pics, my take on it is they think it's their best asset.. and its NOT and it's not just the younger ones I know a lot of well mannered younger men and they don't act like that for the most part, they are very respectable from what I have seen.

I hope you have a great week..

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

I really enjoyed reading this. Your analysis was spot on.
And I admire the open and honest relationship you have with your daughter. Loved her advice on how to handle requests for nude pics or if she wanted to receive ‘dick pics’. Think I will start using that approach on here!

Good post. My thought is on the dick pics that you can set them as a profile on an adult site like this that let's you use explicit content but you shouldn't just send them to anyone without asking first. It might seem rude to say "Want a pick of my cock?" but that's better than just doing it.

Well thanks for the compliment. But it's really my pleasure.

I'm sure it's not everyone...but even from her viewpoint, she say's it's the majority of the ones around the online stuff. Maybe it's just truly internet anonymity that brings out the behavior.

I do find it sad to think any guy would think it's his best asset. I'm a guy, pretty damn proud of mine too...but I wouldn't call it my best asset. LOL

Thanks trzz interesting viewpoint as always.

Thanks, I did find it quite funny on how similar it was in her age bracket. And again, it did raise the "dad flag" for a bit.. Until we talked about handling it. She's a great kid, and apparently listens. I've always told her, the best way to handle a argument is to try and avoid it in the first place.

I was proud of her, for handling the bone heads. I'm a dad, I worry about her. I might have been more respectful, but I was still a teen age guy. I know what I was thinking about most of the time.

Thanks...I'm not naive enough to think teens weren't doing crazy stuff on the internet. Was a little surprised when I heard it was going on with FB messenger. Thought it would have been more of a Snapchat thing.

I don't think I've ever asked anyone if they wanted to see a pic. If it happens, she's either asked, or we've been exchanging some other pics first. Even then, it's been few .

I think there was only one FWB that asked for a dick pic before we met.

Pretty smart for 17 and a lot smarter than some women here who often respond vs. just block and move on.

I did want to thank the 82% of guys. I thank them for making me look like a saint.

When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

Yeah, I'm proud of her. Not just for that, she's an amazing kid.

And though I like to believe I know how to talk to a lady, and it really is just common decency and simple stuff. Show some interest. But the bar is set really low .

Thanks for your thoughts, man.

LOL, so now I'm getting lots of views from guys with dick pic profiles. Two messages so far.. Not naming names, not into the shaming thing. Just funny

One was a long explanation as to why he has it as his profile pic, and why I should change mine. Yeah...that's gonna happen any time now. Just wait for it.

The other, was as mad as a guy being told, "sorry not interested". Lots of colorful names and the old, but always scary..."gonna kick your ass". Love internet tough guys. LOL

Hm. The gap between Haves and Have Nots is widening.
The gap between High and Low IQ is widening.
Are we now seeing a widening of the gap between Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens?

Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

We very well could be. And it would appear age is not being factored into the gap. haha

Great comment.

It's sort of a policy I have of never reposting any messages. but to paraphrase.

The first one had a good point. all about since he was just looking for hook ups, one night kind of things, it let the girls see how big he was. I'm not in the habit of checking out dudes, but I've been in plenty of locker rooms. He wasn't that big.
He lost me when he was trying to convince me that I'd get more "action" if I changed my profile pic, cause ladies are more into dicks than they are guitars.

The second one was just going ape. Think he might have had a friend helping him come up with names for me, cause it was a list. Told me how if I was anywhere near him, he'd come look me up and beat my ass, then do something to me with his dick pic. I'm thinking he meant his dick, not his pic. But who knows. Ended with a "probably have a little dick that I'm ashamed of.

I did respond to him with a , "hey, it may only be a one inch dick, but my momma tells me it's special". And blocked him.

Oh it's in no way just the young ones. I went incognito on the search.. then searched guys profiles , in different age brackets. Picked odd numbers off of 6 pages in each age bracket. then averaged them all. Looked at the comments on pictures. ie..the wow you have beautiful breasts, as compared to. I'd love to slam my cock into between your tits and cum all over your face.

There really wasn't much difference in the 20 to 30, 31 to 40, 41-50..and the 50 +

It's amazing.

One of the main reasons I had and continue to have these talks with my daughter.

I agree on the men side of it. We had the concept of respect, in all things, but certainly for women, quite literally beat into us. While I don't agree with the methods, I'm very happy in the outcome.

I love your clams vs sausage statement. Made me laugh. Well not on the giving up part. Still thinking there's got to be some guy in OK that isn't driving the straight ladies to the other team.

You are so lucky that you can have open, honest discussions with your daughter - especially when she is only 16, going on 17.

And it's also great that she has already figured out that Darwin is weeding out the creeps for her. She'll go a long way, with her attitude.

When I got divorced, I told my kids they could always come to me with anything they ran into . I'd never lie to them, and unless I deemed it to be something they really didn't need to know, would tell them everything. It created a really open relationship with all the kids.

This one being ten years younger than the next oldest, is one of the best and easiest kids I raised. LOL And yes..she's a really smart young lady.

Thank you.

Yeah it's crazy what goes on with online stuff these days. Sorta lazy if you ask me. LOL But yeah, it's starting really young.

She's a smart young lady, and I'm very proud of her.

There's always some rude and obnoxious people. Luckily there's enough respectful and cool people to counteract them.
