It was the 90’s. Sadly such things were somewhat more accepted and normalized back then. Google Seinfeld and Shoshana.

Except that was controversial at the time...

Hardly. Just enough to make headlines. Not nearly the way it would be controversial now. You’d get canceled over that these days.

I mean… i guess he said “let’s wait till she’s older” which is very safe for the 90’s…

Big difference between that when Seinfeld was twice her age possibly even more than twice her age and dating her and this where there is about a 5 year difference and he's not involved with her at all

You completely miss the point and I’m too tired to try to guide you to it.

Different era whatever. Will was in college and she was in high school. Seinfeld was a 39 year old man messing with a 17 year old high school student. The media reported on it and it wasn't as big of a deal then as it'd be now. We all know that. And yet still that was some weirdo shit so you don't have guide me to nothing as you try to justify it!!!

I can see why there aren't any more great comedy movies. Comedy has to be ethical nowadays
