Morgan Freeman and Older Men in General

I was saddened to hear about one of my favorite actors, Morgan Freeman, being severely injured in a car accident today.

My friends know I love him!! Like if I was 72 and still had both functioning hips, I would..... well I will stop there.

However, my love for Morgan got me thinking. Notice I stopped myself. However, some do not. Why is it that so many woman get involved with older men? I am not talking 2-5 years here. I am talking significant age gaps of 15-20 years plus. At 25 I can not see myself honestly dating someone 45 years old. That's a few years younger than my mother and father. I mean when I am 45 he would be 65. I can not use my prime years changing his diapers and cutting up his food!

So how do Beyonce (C'mon now admit it Jigga may not be Mr. Convalescent 2008 but he is definitely older than B), Catherine Zeta-Jones, or dare say it Anna Nicole-Smith (The queen bee of Depends loving herself!!) do it!?!?!?!

I have to believe money can not just be it. What do you guys think? Lets discuss. Also take the poll regarding this.

Meanwhile Morgan you are in my prayers!
