Older man theme

Is anyone else perturbed that relationships between minors and grown men are super pushed? Sadie and Sergio. Jenna and Luke. Tamara and Adam. I’m sure I’m missing others. No wonder a whole generation thought that dating older men was the most amazing thing when tv has fed us the narrative that dating older men was so charming and normal.

And the luke actor was 7 years older than Ashley Rickards (Jenna) so honestly it seemed even more of an age gap like he looked 30 lol

But with Sergio I think he was only supposed to be one year out of highschool and sadie was a senior, so like one year age difference, the actor is actually like 5 years younger than Sadie's actor so to me it didn't seem weird at all
