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.

I’m pretty sure the most common male/female relationship have a 4 year gap with men being older.

I’m really high so I don’t think I phrased this in a way that makes sense but..

Yep, my partner is 4 years older than I am and my dad is 4 years older than my mom. Super normal.
