90. To each his/her own
However my view is that at that age those five years make a huge difference. It's not like if somebody is 29 and their partner is 24. Frankly a 21-year old guy, at least in my experiences, is still pretty immature and, yes, a 16-year old girl can seem more mature. But, really is still a developing person emotionally and physically. When I hear that somebody whose 21 years old, old enough almost to be graduating from college is dating somebody who is 16, young enough, in some cases, to still be a sophomore in high school. It just seems weird. Not so much for the 16 year old, I can understand that person maybe looking for somebody a little bit more mature, but for a 21 year old. Aren't there any attractive, intelligent girls his age to date? At 21 and 16 there are lots of things and places you can't even go to together.
