There is nothing illegal about going to a show and drooling over a guy that is under-aged. It only becomes illegal when she has sex with a guy that is underaged.
And maybe she just likes his music?
Sorry, I don't buy this crap. I know it's a REALLY lame argument, but; It's a free country.
If they aren't breaking any laws, or conspire TO break any laws, let them do it.

How old is that Hannah Montana chick now-again? Pretty sure there are 40+ guys at her gigs, and noone would call the cops.CODE-D said:so true. Darn double standards!Julianking93 said:This picture sums my thoughts up perfectly:
Trust me, If I saw those women with the "Twilight Moms" sign, I would give them VERY funny looks.Arehexes said:
Not all fans are necessarily creepy just because they are outside of the age demographic.
That's like saying any guy who likes a piece of media portraying romance, that is aimed at heterosexual females, must be gay because the idea is for the female consumer to have the hots for the male character in the romance.
Hard to word what I mean, I shall try and clarify if anyone doesn't know what I am getting at.
Also: How many people getting all worked up have actually seen the film?

Sometimes there are double standards because the circumstances are different.
Take the "Twilight Moms" for example - crazy, yes I think so, and they have terrible taste to think that Twilight is anything like a real vampire story, but that's neither here nor there - they are moms. Moms are supposed to be involved in the kids stuff, do the soccer practice yadda yadda, if they have daughters they're going to be hit with the girlie slumber party repeatedly and expected (generalizing here people, very broadly, stay with me) by their husbands to deal with the crowd of girls and by their daughters to hopefully not be super embarrassingly OLD and uptight.
So... in that weirdo chemistry lab you get aberrations like Twilight Moms and Bieber moms and all this other - mentally we aren't as elastic as we'd like to be, and if you go too much into your "mom of teen daughters" role to the "not being old" side - you are going to try so hard to be cool that you end up being... well, not. It happens.
Dads - if you want to look at the other side of the double standard here - are not (generally, again very broadly speaking here) expected to know the singers his daughter is into has a new boyfriend this week or was on the cover of Teen magazine last week with so-and-so but now they found her in a closet with her best-friend's man and it's such a scandal! They are also not usually tapped to be the one to chaperone such outings as concerts with a group of young girls - sometimes just BECAUSE it looks "bad" to have 5 teenage girls with a middle aged man, even if he the father of one of them, which is just plain wrong on society for being so paranoid and ready to think the worst - because, traditionally (and again people, generally and broadly!) the dad is the one paying for the concert tickets to buy the privilege of NOT going and being tortured with an evening of screaming girl-children when he could be home relaxing.
Also, boy children (including teenagers) are not encouraged to get as publicly excited about things, where girls are often encouraged to be as openly emotional as they want to be. So you get a big difference there too - between men and women of all ages and their public displays of enthusiasm.

That's somewhat different, the characters in certain animes/games (in which they tend to be most prevelant in) of a younger age that are put in risque situations are fictional. Justin Bieber is real.maddawg IAJI said:
On topic this can be simply answered by the double standard of genders.
Dammit Julian! Why must you beat me to this?Julianking93 said:This picture sums my thoughts up perfectly:
OT: I can't help but think that this is the same as when guys where drooling over Britney Spears a long time ago, just with the genders reversed. If people complained about those guys, I don't see why they should let this slip.
Lol... pretty much sums up my thoughts on itHankMan said:
As long as she doesn't start doing anything inappropriate in the back row of the cinema, who cares? It's just a person going to see a movie, because they want to and because they can. Why is she being judged for this?
I don't know. I could see some middle-aged women I know going to see it because it'll be funny as hell. Or, I know it sounds crazy, what if some of them actually like the music?
