Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Congratulations and good on you bon!
I have nothing to say about the stats, but every one of my married girlfriends is married to someone 2-4 years older including me. I feel like we're so...average.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You people are not understanding me. I am not looking for any kind of trade. I prefer to keep my money and not take on any new tasks. I just want my tasks done, is that so much to ask?

What is even happening?
Yeah. My dh is three years (and not quite 3 weeks) older than I am. My best friend's husband is a year younger than she is. One b-i-l's wife was three years older than she, but I think the ink is just drying on their divorce papers. Most of my other het married people are in marriages with the woman 2-4 years younger than the man. My dad was 9 years older than my mom, though, and my f-i-l is five years older than m-i-l.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Today I forgot my glasses, my badge, my laptop, and also forgot that i needed to get gas on the way to work.
Now I have an ounce of gas in my car, I can't see, and I have to wear a sticker with my face on it all day.
Me = dumb.

I think I wound up with an older guy because I didn't want to date anyone I went to high school with. Mr. Jane went to my HS, but graduated long before I got there.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Allyson, can you drive OK without your glasses?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
The ENT physician I saw this morning made an unfortunate assumption about me after finding out that I'm from Alabama and work for the Legislature in this state. This led to his observations about how unfit women's brains are for anything other than raising children and how wonderful it is to be white and Southern and male. I wanted to point out that just being fat and having sideburns doesn't make me Toby Keith, but he kept sticking pointy metal things into my nose, so I was loathe to piss him off.
