I really enjoy May/December stories. But it seems like 90% of them feature an 18 or 19 year old kid. What is the attraction to a character that young as a writer? They have nearly no life experiences. Nothing to make them attractive or interesting beyond the physical.
Now, admittedly I didn't come into my own as a young man until I was 22. That's when women began noticing me sexually. I lost my virginity at 22. So it's possible I'm just seeing myself at that age and seeing the young man as I was. Pretty likely in fact.
Also, I'm a non-conformist by nature. If something is commonly done, it's something I usually avoid and generally disdain. So my attitude could just be that.
But my question remains. What about that wet behind the ears kid is a draw to you as a writer? Wouldn't a 26 year old with a degree and a job or military service be more likely to attract that MILF next door?
