A friend's younger sister had a 40+ yo boyfriend when she was 20 because "he stopped aging" when he was a drink for many years so it's "really like he's under 25". The whole family hated the guy, it felt incredibly predatory. Maybe he did "stop mentally aging", but it was still very uncomfortable to be around.

That actually makes a ton of sense to me now.
When I was up for my military contract renewal one of the big deciding factors was that I had noticed that for all the people who kept renewing, they maintained the same maturity as the new people. It's like they knew they were financially safe for life and just coast through the rest as theyre given near automatic promotions until you end up with 40 yr old bosses with the mentality of a fresh college kid.

So FBI profilers actually have noted that men who enter prison or military still have the maturity of when they entered. Therefore their crimes more resemble someone at the age of the younger person than a mature person their age that wasn't incarcerated or in the military.
So when they build the profile it will look like "This crime is most commonly done by a white male between twenty to thirty, or an older white male that of a similar mental maturity."

No one is debating the legality, but it’s fair to have the opinion that it’s really creepy
For anyone under the age 19, you don’t realise the difference in maturity between yourselves and people 10 years older, it’s such a stark contrast.
It also shows how Dicaprio is specifically going after a certain age demographic which is a bit weird and suspect in itself.
