Someone asked, “What are the specific benefits of dating young women, such as students?” I imagine one commonly mentioned benefit is something along the lines of, “You can learn about things only the younger generation knows, which can be educational.” However, although I’m in my early twenties, I can only seem to like music from the ’70s through the ’90s—Chage & Aska, Keisuke Kuwata, Billy BanBan, etc.—and movies from that era. I honestly have no idea what’s popular these days.
I only use Facebook as far as social media goes. (I was incredibly happy when Takashi Omori, formerly of Southern All Stars, commented on one of my posts!!)
So even when someone asks me, “What’s popular among university students these days?” I have absolutely no idea, partly because I barely have any friends.
Should I stop listening to old music and force myself to study current trends?

This may sound awful, but I’m mainly interested in young women’s bodies, so conversation isn’t that important to me.
Even when we sing karaoke together at a club, I just sing whatever I want.
(It’s easy because the women at the club both help support me.)
When we go out to eat, the three of us can chat with the chef at the counter, so it’s not really a problem. Besides, if I wanted ordinary conversation, there are plenty of young women at my company who are well versed in all kinds of topics.
So that’s not something I’m particularly looking for either. I’m looking for things at a dating club that I can’t normally find elsewhere.
Please devote all your time to studying—not for the men at the dating club, but for your own goals.
I love women like that.

I actually think that’s a good thing.
It’s enjoyable when you have things to talk about, and people like that will probably tell you what they thought of something else when you meet again.
Of course, if you’re around the same age, it’s natural to share or at least know the same topics. But when someone from a different generation knows about them, it feels fresh.
They may feel that you’re both looking at the same thing, but you’re actually seeing it from different perspectives—and that can lead to new discoveries as well.
So I don’t think you need to force yourself to look into whatever is currently popular.
Even if you think you don’t really follow current trends, you may still have a vague familiarity with them and think, “Oh right, that was popular too.”

This is Mac. Here’s my reply.
When you’re a student, the challenge is overcoming the things you can’t do. Getting along with people of the same age and gender is one of those things.
Once you enter the workforce, the challenge becomes making use of your abilities and strengths and developing them further. You don’t need to keep working on the things you struggled with as a student. Just seal them away.
Papua-san, your personality is far more adaptable to society than simply being someone who can only get along with people of the same age and gender. Choose a workplace with lots of men from the Showa-era generation. They’re a dime a dozen.
Marriage is probably still a long way off, so you can think about it when the time comes. By then, men your age may have caught up with you mentally, and you may have become better at meeting them halfway.
Friends of the same age and gender are completely unnecessary when it comes to getting through life. Anyone who thinks they need such friends is just a pervert, as far as I’m concerned.（笑）
