The thread title is not mine, but the headline of this article. I have seen an intense amount of discussion on social media today about the age difference of Stephen Fry and his boyfriend. Some are defending him. Others are tearing him apart.

There is quite an age difference in my relationship, although not quite this much. Another difference is that I, the younger in the relationship, was nearly 10 years older than Eliot Spencer when the relationship began. Most have never really given us a problem, but I found that relationships with big age differences are usually more easily accepted when the younger in the relationship is himself not so young.
