Is it weird/creepy for a 19 year old to date a 17 year old?

I have seen many say no, some say yes so I was wondering, is it odd/strange or normal? Is it like a 20 year old dating a 17 year old?

Well first off, ask this question 150 years ago... the answer would be no. 30 year old men would marry 15 year old girls.

So I think that 17/19 isn't really that creepy, but 17/21 or 17/22 is starting to get creepy.

I dated in high school and we were both 17, then I turned 18 and she was still 17. Do I think that was creepy? Not at all. Add one year, and it's not a big deal. Add 3, 4 or 5 years, then yeah, it's a big deal.

So it's now creepy at all then? two years is fine?

I think about 2 years is acceptable for young ages, and about 10 years acceptable for older ages (ex 30/40).

To say that you have to find someone within +/- 365 days your age is a bit unreasonable, no?
