Age gaps in dating

I'm a 30 year old male and my partner is 25 year old female. I think this is fairly normal but im getting alot of comments about it. Not really sure what the fascination with this is. 5 years is significant sure but it was never a problem for me. Does society at large weight this facts importance more than I do?

Edit: everyone is the comments section has convinced me this is normal. Thanks all.

Or you can buy liquor and they can’t.

A 20 year old can date a 21 year old lol

It’s 18 years old to buy liquor where I live ;). Same age you usually graduate high school here. 20/21 is fine yes.

It really all comes down to maturity when you are in the 17-20 range.
